The text clearly states faster than any AI PC, not that its faster than any NPUs integrated into a CPU.

They could have written it correctly, but that sounds way less impressive, so instead they make up shit to make it sound very impressive.

It’s the term Microsoft, Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm decided to rally around. No need to get upset at Apple for using the same term as reference for comparison.

Ps. Nvidia also doesn’t like the term because of precisely what you said. But it’s not Apple that decided to use this term.

If you want to adopt this new terminology, remember that Intel and Microsoft have a requirement of 40 TOPS for "AI PCs". How can the m4 be faster than any AI PC if it's too slow to even qualify as one?

Source? IIRC that 40 TOPS was just Microsoft saying that was the requirement for "next gen" AI PCs, not a requirement for any AI PC to be classed as one.
