I'm talking about more normal machines, all have 8gb including 2 out of the 3 MacBook Pro models, meaning you have to drop two grand for a MacBook Pro with 16gb memory and even that is low for AI.
Original comment I was responding too 'Probably as a stop gap solution until they make a true AI-centric chip.'
They are using M2 Ultra on the servers because that has enough power / memory, the issue is there baseline machines don't and only have 8gb, hence needing to offload to a server and it's going to be a stop gap until they put more ram in the standard machines.
