Are you comparing ARM to x86 or Intel chips specifically? Intel could design their own ARM chips…it’s an architecture family with a SUPER wide variety of implementations.

Everyone seems to be excited about the newer AMD chips which are x86.

ARM is nice for low power, low performance workloads like embedded, phones, and laptops.

Isn't pretty much all modern x86 cpu's ARM at their core anyways, or am i missing something? The big deal about Apple scilicone is how its an all-in-one and obviously having things compiled for arm in the first place helps

> arm at their core

Most modern "CISC" processors internally are composed of RISC-like elements with instruction decoders in front.

ARM is a specific almost-RISC instruction set architecture.
