Apple's New M1 Chip is a Machine Learning Beast (M1 vs Intel MacBook speed test)
At the start of the year I bought a nearly top spec Intel-based 16-inch MacBook Pro to edit videos and write code. Then Apple released their M1-powered MacBooks and the performance graphs looked insane. I decided to run a few speed test comparisons to compare my MacBook Pro to the new M1 MacBooks.
