Everybody knows that chatbotmake mistakes. This misbehavior has given rise to the fundamental guideline that users should always doublecheck everything a chatbot says.

Apple moves back to its roots in hardware with “cloud buster” chips

Extensive revision: 8/17/25

This is the first of a series of occasional publications that will track Apple’s development of genAI inference data centers using Apple Silicon, centers at the edges of the Internet that will support billions of devices. Given Apple's policy of minimal publicity during development, there probably won't be more than four more reports before the end of 2026.
