Don't you need specific CPUs for these AI features? If so, how is this going to work on the machines that don't support it?
With it being local it’s probably a small and limited model. I took a couple courses on machine learning years ago (before it got rebranded as “AI”), and you’d be surprised at how well a basic image recognition model can run on the lowest-spec macbook from 2012.
Tbh the inversion of typical intuition that is LLMs taking orders of magnitudes more memory than computer vision can mess people unfamiliar up on estimates of the hardware required
Yeah that’s very true.
You only need lots of precessing power to train the models. Using the models can be done on regular hardware.
The feature will obviously just be disabled on machines that don't support it.
Running AI models isn't that resource intensive. Training the models is the difficult part.
