Who is NVIDIA killing, exactly? Is Apple complicit in killings because operators planned missions on Macbooks? Dell? Microsoft?

Anyone know how this compares to Apple’s M5 chips? Or is that comparison apples to oranges.

It doesn't matter, because you will never find M5 chips on cloud offerings, or server racks.

It is kind of rediculous that the only server option with Apple hardware has been to stack up mac minis.

They got rid of the server and workstation market, focusing on consumers only.

The guidelines don’t get disregarded just because the topic is important to you. People have been trying that trick since the beginning. The guidelines are only worth having if they enable us to discuss difficult topics without burning this place to the ground. If you’re not able to discuss a topic without making swipes about someone’s “brain cells”, you need to find a different discussion forum. This site is only here for you to post that kind of trash because other people make the effort to raise the standards rather than drag them down.

I'm not saying they aren't.

[1] This question is trash as well. I admit I got baited. My bad.

Features like hardware FP8 support definitely make it apples-to-oranges.

But doesn't the Apple M series NPU support FP8, and as it's a monolithic die (except for the GPU in the M5 Pro and Max) it could be argued it has hardware FP8 support, no?

Apple's hardware does not support FP8 (neither the ANE NPU, or the new "neural accelerator" tensor cores), though the most recent variant supports INT8.
