Apple’s iPhone 17 event is just a couple of days away, but that hasn’t stopped the rumor mill producing some last minute morsels.

And now, we live in a world where AI servers crammed with accelerators account for half of the money spent on systems worldwide. There is no law anywhere that says that accelerator has to be a GPU, although that has been the accelerator of choice by far because GPUs are, like CPUs, general purpose processors that are explicitly designed to support vario
