iMac Pro's coprocessor to be an A10 Fusion chip
So what right? Well this means Siri could always be on, and working seamlessly inside the new iMac Pro.
This could make the iMac Pro the first Mac to feature an A series Microprocessor, which are the same chips found in iPhone’s.
“Looks like the iMac Pro’s ARM coprocessor is arm64 Seems to handle the macOS boot & security process, as expected; iMac Pro lets Apple experiment with tighter control without the rest of the userbase freaking out. More info & download here”
It’s exciting as the level of integration between Macs running macOS and iDevices running iOS really will go to the next level.
In the office Siri with some dedicated hardware behind it could be a real boon to productivity, imagine making a coffee and having Siri seamlessly read to you the next article from Grove’s all via voice activated commands.
The A10 chip could also signal the new iMac Pro being always able to listen even when turned off. No more reaching for the power button if Apple pulls this off.
