CheeseFreeze said: As an AI-developer myself, a M3 Ultra would be an incredibly stupid purchase. The machine would only be good for a very limited set of AI-models. You'd be better off purchasing Digits for $3K, yes with 25% of the memory (1…

Even though the Mac Studio with M3 Ultra seems like a great option for LLM usage and development, there is a big drawback in terms of cost. But compared to what? How much would you have to spend to do the same job on a PC?
