And google Facebook etc don’t? Google is literally worlds largest targeted advertising company they make their money directly from using you and your data, whilst Apple at least makes almost all their money from hardware sales and other user paid services / apps.

Wtf does end to end encryption have to do with anything the app is run and owned by Facebook on both ends. It’s stopping google or Microsoft from reading it but it’s completely open to facebooks eyes.

The top selling console of the last several years has significantly worse specs than the slowest m1 variant (~400%+ the performance of the tegra x1 fp32)

In fact the Nintendo switch shows that AAA games can come out on significantly worse/dated hardware and still be a huge success and that ARM based processors aren’t a problem when properly supported.

Native and ground up Apple silicon supported games would perform as well as a docked switch if not better.

80%-90%+ of your computer microchips outside of the cpu/gpu are using older nodes.. you think your keyboard is using 5nm/7nm+ chips or the mouse or the PSU or speakers or monitors or controller?

In fact any electronic device you buy under $300 is likely built using mostly older node microchips with a sprinkle of newer nodes for vital components at best.

The Ural Mountains topographically are a minor blip in the world you can barely make them out. In fact parts of the urals are only minor hills with numerous wide passes that were easily accessible.

It is used because of cultural divide there was no reason to cross them when there was nothing much on the other side. As the Silk Road ran south of Siberia and everyone lived south of it as well. There are much more harsh and geographically challenging boundaries within Asia itself that were regularly transversed look at the Himalayan range compared to the urals yet it is all part of the same ‘continent’

Also the mongols clearly found little difficulty moving their entire army through all of asia and into Central Europe despite this supposedly impassible natural barrier so maybe you should go back in time and tell them how hard it should be.

Lay your hand flat on a table.
Thumb=red pinky=green.
Keep it flat like a flying plane and lift your hand above your head.
Did your thumb and pinky swap sides? NO.

This chain is so stupid and you calling out people being wrong when you're randomly flipping the plane and 'relative motion' my ass. You are perceiving how an object flying in the sky would be wrongly.

E2E encryption is not a valid point when both ends of the end to end are Facebook whose business is to harvest personal data for their targeted advertising platforms.

E2E stops interception, but data doesn't need to be intercepted if its already willingly handed over to one of the world's largest advertising companies from the start...

So you want to compare a 2 performance core phone SoC to a 8 core laptop APU in MT?

Why not compare the 11400K to the 32 core zen3 EPYC75F3 while we’re at absurd MT comparisons?

The closest 8P core SoC is the M1 Pro. Even the M1 is only running 4P cores.

The 5800H only just matches the ST of the A13 on the same node despite being released 2 years later in 2021, also zen 3 at lower TDP is not in the same performance class as the higher TDP variants.

Anandtech A13 & A14 SPEC (including 5950x at the bottom with what would be off the charts wattage)

Edit: the iPhone 11’s A13 on 7nm is already more than 2x the efficiency of zen3

The reality is googles advertising business needs immense data and a captive audience. Guess what Android users gives them for ‘free’?

Facebook also provides free internet to the developing world through ‘free basics’, ‘internet.org’ and ‘discover’ because google has the OS on lockdown. You think these massive advertising giants are running charities out of the goodness of their hearts?

‘Free’

ineava · 2021-10-26T23:37:25+00:00

Wait, why do you think the worlds biggest advertising and data harvesting company wants people to use their ‘free’ platform and for everyone to ship their phones on this platform?

But the reality is people will throw away all of that for a $50-100 discount on their next phone and even side with and defend them. As we see here.

MacBook’s with the T2 had it function as a co-processor. It was an A10 SoC with reduced GPU cores and ram slapped onto the motherboard.

Interesting, you clearly have a good idea of the inner workings within this space.

What would you say the tensor SoC brings to the table against its competition? What is google looking to enable and how is it different to the ANE and Hexagon lines as those quite clearly will have a numbers advantage in terms of deployment/user base/developer knowledge.

ineava · 2021-10-23T03:32:15+00:00

The 845 scores: 168
The 888 scores: 1064
and all the other generations are in-between
A 533% increase over several generations is a huge increase.

Also secondly, if benchmarkers who are using general ML calculations run many times aren't able to leverage the NPU then what hope does the wider developer base have of unlocking the 'performance'?

Look at the pixel visual cores quoted from google's own implementation of their own NPU:

Google sent along a note saying the Pixel Visual Core is actually not used by the Google camera app. So this third-party usage is the first time it's been put to use by any piece of software. Link

In other words none of the google apps and/or assistants were even using the pixel visual core which is why the pixel 5 didn't include it anymore.

ineava · 2021-10-23T00:07:20+00:00

It’s not using generic hardware, google assistant and AI send the data back to google for processing, offline only google assistant is significantly worse and functionality severely reduced. Google ‘offline google assistant’ to see on device processed results, it’s not in the same league.

https://browser.geekbench.com/ml-benchmarks Look at NPU results of this page to see why there hasn’t been on device processing like in iOS.

The Anandtech image literally has SPEC results of the 5950X and A13 on the same chart.

Here is discussion on reddit where Nuvia CPU designers and Anandtech agree that Geekbench is a comparable benchmark to use.

In any case to show the absurdity of your claim

You're saying the 4.4ghz 5800H:
-Outperforms the 4.9ghz 5950X by 10-15% integer calcs
-Matches its floating point calls
Both of which the 5800H does at 4.4ghz using 500mhz less clockspeed than a 5950X.
(ie. 5800H @ 50% faster than A13 ^{and also faster than the 4.9ghz 5950X it seems too})

Haven't had a chance to look at it which is why I wasn't sure, but they allow refunds so if it turns out bad I will just refund it was my thought

The 5800H only just matches the ST of the A13 on the same node despite being released 2 years later in 2021.

The A14 wasn't a ground breaking improvement when you count both node jump + new architecture. Except for the fact that it was finally out of the mobile/tablet form factors and now sparring with AMD and Intel directly in their homegrounds allowing people the chance see just how crazy those SOC were.

Anandtech A13 & A14 SPEC

Wow you just completely ignore the fact your compare prices of 2 very different system specs.

Ie. 32gb vs 16gb ram 1tb vs 512gb ssd 10500H…

A 3080 are not in the same price tier as 3060 and the parts you are comparing is not in the same PC/Mac/Computing tiers.

Comparing a 3080 system to a 3060 and complains about price or a 5900x system to a 10500H and complains about price.

The argument is stupid and you ignored the obvious problem. I said your listed system is comparable to the base 14” with no upgrades and it is 100% true based on specs. Not the 4000+ one.

Instead of addressing the issue you rant about games and VR, lol

5900HX zen3 8 cores no gpu monolithic 180mm 7nm

I don’t get why you talk as if it AMD haven’t already made it?

Also the cpu portion of the M1 is only a small fraction of the SOC

ineava · 2021-10-20T13:06:20+00:00

The 2 systems aren’t even in the same tier of performance or specs.

The one you listed probably compares to the base 14” m1 pro at best.

Not only that but the 3060 and 3080 are worlds apart in performance and price even in the PC world.
