Silicon, silicone is fake boob plastic.

And that’s a blatant lie from Apple, if anything, the GPU shares memory with the CPU therefore Apple Silicon needs MORE memory, not less.

And yet the machines are more performant with less memory than their Intel equivalents were (comparing Mac to Mac).

Somehow an efficiency has been made.
