#2I skimmed the video but a lot of it sounded more like advertising than technical information to me. On the other hand, I'm looking forward to watching the Asahi folks crack this stuff open.

The beginning does sound like marketing but eventually it gets into technical information.

It is pretty funny how amateur a multi trillion dollar can be, its so distracting and sounds like an 80's instructional VHS.

It is an overview of what is new about their hardware and technical advice (but not overly technical) on how to maximize the GPUs performance.
I watched the full video and thought it was excellent. I wish other CPU/GPU manufacturers made technical overview videos like this. I've never programmed graphics targeting metal before, but I feel much more inclined after watching this so I guess it was good advertising.

#7It’s amazing how bad the competition is. The A17 pro has 2 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores. The Google G3 has 9 cores of 3 different types, the fastest being slower than Apple’s performance cores, the most efficient being less efficient than apple’s efficiency cores. And it’s a phone so you don’t take advantage of the extra parallelism. You just get the worst of both worlds. no wonder these android phones have 50% more battery and 50% less battery life. Is it that hard to just copy the winning formula?

#8Does apple document exactly how many actual true cores there are inside their GPUs? It is always confusing they say "40 core GPU" but I assume these are shader cores which each inside them can execute (per the video) "many thousands" of parallel execution paths.
So how does one translate to an equivalent in "CUDA cores" type terminology?

I don't know about your facts, but
"Is it that hard to just copy the winning formula?"
yes it is, thanks to IP law. And back in the day Steve Jobs already wanted thermonuclear war on Samsung, because he felt their flagship at the time was too close to the IPhone.
