Exactly on the same boat: I don't see a big improvement until I can run a decent LLM on my machine. But I'll wait for it to reach the $2500 price tag.

Until then, then M1 Pro will be fine for my usage, which is already more advanced than most.

My ideal scenario:

- 2027 the AI bubble bursts

- 2028 new memory factories reach the production stage and fail to meet demand, so we have a glut of memory and rock-bottom prices.
