Apple Unveils M6 and Its Most Powerful Chip Yet

Apple is pushing its custom silicon roadmap forward again.
$AAPL introduced the M6, its first chip built on a 2 nm process, alongside the new M5 Ultra.
M5 Ultra is Apple’s first quad-die design and the most powerful chip the company has released to date.
The new architecture is aimed at substantially increasing compute, graphics and AI performance for high-end Macs and professional workloads.
The M6 is equally important for the longer-term roadmap.
Moving to 2 nm should improve transistor density, performance and power efficiency as Apple continues reducing its dependence on third-party processors.
The broader takeaway is clear:
Apple is still treating custom silicon as one of its biggest competitive advantages.
More performance.
Better efficiency.
And tighter integration across hardware, software and AI.
