Why Apple uses integrated memory in Apple Silicon -- and why it's both good and bad
I see a lot of this stuff as a stopgap solution. UMA is nice but the industry realizes that no single memory solution is going to cover all bases
It appears that PCI-Express 6 will be amongst the first to really start to user in CXL Anandtech has a good write up :

I've seen too much kvetching about "Who the Mac Pro is for?" which is understandable but moving to the next generation
of memory types isn't being taken lightly and the basic question is "why should a next generation computing platform have to choose?"
The system should be able to leverage volatile, persistent, DRAM level speeds and RAM level speeds without the application or the end user
fiddling.
In 5 years you shouldn't have to ponder about how much memory you need to purchase as the science should make the question relatively obsolete
you should be able to extend the memory albeit at perhaps slightly slower speeds.

Mark Zuckerberg says the Vision Pro doesn't present 'any breakthroughs'
The Mac wasn't the first home computer
The iPod wasn't the first portable music player
The iPad wasn't the first tablet computing device
It is not about being first, or groundbreaking or revolutionary but rather taking a nascent
concept and refining it to match the palette of consumers.
Zuck's one and only accomplishment was aping Myspace and removing the atrociously bad HTML pages
with a consistent user interface and experience.
Time will tell if Apple can lower costs and refine the experience for the masses but I swear Zuck is approaching
Bill Gates level in his ability to "miss the point". -
