    M1 Mac SSD update… Apple, this is NOT okay. Especially as the internal SSD isn’t replaceable. The machine is just a bit over 2 months old.

    that "Cocreator", the "AI" image generator shipped in Paint and co on Snapdragon X Elite laptops, doesn't work offline is a joke. It generates the image offline (with the NPU) then _vets it_ on a cloud service for "safety" and then displays it if that check passes.
