There were a number of exciting announcements from Apple at WWDC 2024, from macOS Sequoia to Apple Intelligence. However, a subtle addition to Xcode 16 — the development environment for Apple platforms, like iOS and macOS — is a feature called Predictive Code Completion. Unfortunately, if you bought into Apple’s claim that 8GB of unified memory was enough for base-model Apple silicon Macs, you won’t be able to use it. There’s a memory requirement for Predictive Code Completion in Xcode 16, and it’s the closest thing we’ll get from Apple to an admission that 8GB of memory isn’t really enough for a new Mac in 2024.
People do like to downplay this, but SoC is the future. There’s no way to get performance over a system bus anymore.
There is. It’s called CAMM.
Funny that within one minute, they state the exact same problem.
If you actually watch past the first minute of the video, they explain that LPCAMM solves that problem…
