X to doubt. Apple "usually" plans these changes in ahead so other devices can take advantage of it. Not saying that is the case here at all as there are times it did.

ChatGPT is just 1 year old. And only recently has it become feasible to run LLMs locally on-device. Apple couldn't really have planned for it hardware-wise.

A common requirement for these LLMs and stable diffusion models is large memory requirement, which Apple has always been stingy with. Only with the newer hardware do I foresee them increasing base memory, if they want to make AI more accessible.
