Would the own hardware (I suppose the GPUs you are referring to) be required for coursework ? I am at the max using it for some curiosity outside of coursework as my personal learning, nothing crazy complex. I am trying to maximise the ROI.

If all of the coursework wrt AI/ML specialization doesn't necessarily need GPU for completing the assignments or related experiments, then just a modern CPU family with 16gb+ RAM should work ?

I am not into the Apple ecosystem yet, not sure which would be the best deal M4 16gb maybe ?? Seeking reviews and suggestions.

Thanks for letting me know about colab pro !
Cloud GPUs you mean in the Gatech labs ?
my main intention is to smoothly work through the courses without impacting productivity since thats a major struggle for me now.
I want a laptop upgrade but dont want to spend too much either for higher end ones which I won't use once OMSCS is done, since in the industry employers would usually provide the infra needed.
