For the newly released M5 Pro and Max, AI is already making the press release headline.

This reads less like a make-the-stock-happy announcement like Genmoji, and more like a serious bridge to a real strategic destination:

Apple is making the first high end consumer AI laptop that makes cloud computing a secondary mechanism.

Scaling up performance from M5 and offering the same breakthrough GPU architecture with a Neural Accelerator in each core, M5 Pro and M5 Max deliver up to 4x faster LLM prompt processing than M4 Pro and M4 Max, and up to 8x Al image generation than M1 Pro and M1 Max.2 This enables Al researchers and developers to train custom models locally, and creative professionals to leverage Al-powered tools for video editing, music production, and design work.
