However, with Apple's latest iPhone launches, it's placing itself in a better position for AI growth, thanks to its increased control over the device. The debut of the new N1 wireless chip and the second-generation C1X modem is a big wireless play for Apple. But, in the A19 Pro, Apple has moved to a new chip architecture that builds upon its existing Neural Engine processing. With the neural processing in the iPhone reaching MacBook Pro class performance, Millet says it is a "big, big step forward in ML compute." That software could potentially switch between 3D rendering instructions and neural processing instructions, Millet proposes.
