Yes the future is probably ARM/RiscV with many cores + GPU + some AI/ML/FPGA/Whatever co-Processor.

So what Apple are doing then.
What the actual fastest Supercomputer (Fugaku) already did, and all the Smartphones before ;)
What are you talking about?

Fugaku is the opposite of that, each CPU chip is 48 cores with 512 bit wide SVE(arm version of AVX512).

They deliberately went for something easier to program, that didn't require doing the CPU/GPU dance.

ARM/RiscV with many cores...that's what i wrote, if you don't need a gpu you don't need one, if you need SVE you integrate it or use a co-Processor :)
SVE isn't in a co-processor, I guess is the point. There's a lot more to Fugaku than SVE (whether or not you think that's a version of avx512), though. No DDR is suggestive.
if you need SVE you INTEGRATE it OR use a co-Processor

Thanks for reading.

That is true :)
