Summary of Machine Learning on the M1 Macbook Pro?

00:00:00 - 00:10:00

The 2020 MacBook Pro features a M1 chip that is designed specifically for machine learning. There are some limitations to using the M1 chip for machine learning, but it is still an interesting development.

• 00:00:00 The M1 chip in the 2020 MacBook Pro is designed specifically for machine learning, and it is cheaper to produce than the Intel chips were for Apple to acquire. The M1 chip features a 16 coordinational engine, which is specifically designed to optimize things that require machine learning or more specifically things that require a lot of matrix multiplication. The computer predominantly relied on the CPU in trials where everything was run on the GPU, but when trials were run where the computer predominately relied on the CPU, the view 100 GPU outperformed the M1 chip.
• 00:05:00 This MacBook Pro is good for machine learning, but it has a higher power usage and takes longer to train a model than a comparable MacBook Air. The eager mode, which is the default setting, speeds up the processing time a lot.
• 00:10:00 The author discusses the new Macbook Pro with a M1 chip and how it differs from other computers. There are some limitations to using the M1 chip for machine learning, but it is still an interesting development. The author also talks about the Apple machine learning developer program.
