    Don’t you need specific CPUs for these AI features? If so, how is this going to work on the machines that don’t support it?

      With it being local it’s probably a small and limited model. I took a couple courses on machine learning years ago (before it got rebranded as “AI”), and you’d be surprised at how well a basic image recognition model can run on the lowest-spec macbook from 2012.
