That's because AI models rely on data generated by various components of a device, such as swipes, cameras, and sensors, so more storage will be required to feed more data to them.
Apple might also end up boosting both storage and RAM, so 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage might be standard across the entire lineup. . The company apparently thinks its large language model needs more work, which is why it's ready to swallow its pride and ask other companies for help.A discussion is a place, where people can voice their opinion, no matter if it is positive, neutral or negative.
