I think the MacBook Neo is a hint that Apple is working on a MacBook "Ultra" specifically designed to run LLMs locally.

Apple's deal with Google Gemini gives Cupertino breathing room to develop an LLM from the ground up that runs completely sans-cloud. They're gonna do the "enclave" bit of marketing for it. Or, if the hype dies, they'll never release it.

This is a good thing imo. *If* LLMs/Agentic AI are here to stay, we want friction against the cloud-tethered future pushed by big tech.
