Apple’s Software Restrictions On The M4 Were Bypassed Using Reverse Engineering, Unlocking 15.8TFLOPS Of AI Crunching Power
The Neural Engine in Apple chipsets like the M4 is only available for Inference, allowing developers to run pre-trained AI models but not to train new ones. Fortunately, one individual has apparently reverse-engineered the SoC by scaling past its software limitations, keeping everything in the RAM, making everything run buttery smooth and incredibly fast.
On X, @0x0SojalSec has shared code on a GitHub repository on how the true power of the M4 was unlocked. Since Apple doesn’t give any permission
Verizon Buries Its Notoriously Tangled Plans With ‘Verizon Simplicity,’ A $45 Tier Bundling 5G, Hotspot Data, And Satellite Texting
Choosing a carrier plan is a herculean task on the best of days, and if your carrier is Verizon, the task typically becomes even more onerous, courtesy of Verizon's heretofore penchant for overly complicated plans and bundles.
