I can only think of one thing you could do with this much power … run an LLM

They have been saying the same conclusion since the very first iPad, hasn’t deterred Apple yet.

Making the prior iPad “obsolete” Apple nailed it 🤪

I’m so annoyed they announced this.
I have a slew of raspberry pi’s kicking around, doing various things. I also have a name brand NAS that reportedly lets you run other software, including containerized apps, but their implementation is whack and doesn’t work super well.
I want to get a more powerful machine for use as a replacement server. I’d like to spin up my own LLM tools, use it to with software like photoprism to auto tag my pictures, or even spin up Frigate on it.
My leading contender had been either a Jetson Orin nano or a system with the core ultra 155h chip. But now I might have to wait until they announce/release M4 Mac minis - which is really annoying because I want instant gratification for my half-baked ideas.

Now you have the time to actually write up a design document and let your half-baked idea become a fully cooked one before you drop a bunch of cash on it

What are you, some kind of financial advisor!?
…. because if you are, are you taking new clients? My shit is whack.

For legal reasons I am required to inform you that I am not a financial advisor. In fact, I am not real.
