Apple is trying to catch up with the AI trend and it seems that the new product line from the company will be very powerful in delivering artificial intelligence. In a new report from Taiwan-based Economic Daily News, Apple will equip a very capable neural engine in the next generation chipset for the same. Image courtesy: Beebom

The report says that Apple has tasked TSMC to invest in an improved version of the 3nm chipset. Upcoming M4 and A18 chipsets will see a significant increase in computing power. For generative AI functions, Apple plans to increase the number of built-in AI computing cores in its processors. Needless to say, this will require more intensive R&D and thus the investment.

"According to industry insiders, Apple has seen the big trend in AI. This year, it will not only greatly strengthen the AI computing power of the M3 and A17 processors, but also greatly increase the number and performance of the new generation M4 and A18 processors. "

Despite not paying attention to AI features, Apple has continuously refined the neural engine on its A-series chips. For example, Apple has claimed that the A17 Pro chipset in the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max has a neural engine twice as powerful as last year's A16 Pro in iPhone 14 Pro models. However, it is worth noting that the number of cores has remained the same since the iPhone 12. This year we can see a neural engine with more than 16 cores.
