Dania El Hassan, director of product management for Autodesk AutoCAD, said in a press release that performance can be increased by up to 2x. Some of the content as follows:

The new versions of AutoCAD for Mac 2024 and AutoCAD LT for Mac 2024 focus on performance improvements and run natively on Apple Silicon chips.

Both applications take full advantage of Apple Silicon chip performance to accelerate user workflows and increase productivity.

The update also introduces marker import, marker assist, smart block placement, trace updates, and more. The full update can be found on the official Autodesk website.

Apple debuted the M1 chip in the 2020 MacBook lineup, featuring superior power management and long battery life.

In a short period of time, ARM-based laptops began to gain market share, from less than 2% to more than 12% by the end of 2022, according to Counterpoint Research.

Apple dominates the ARM laptop market with a 90% share in 2022. Apple’s migration to its own CPU designs is proving to be a shot in the arm for vendors looking to develop ARM-based solutions.

In addition to Apple, MediaTek and Qualcomm are also actively pushing ARM chips for PCs and servers. Qualcomm is expected to launch its Oryon CPU this fall, and Qualcomm and MediaTek’s solutions could see more than 50 percent year-over-year growth in ARM laptops over the 2024-2025 period.

ARM-based laptops will have up to 25 percent of the market by 2027, which doesn’t bode well for either Intel or AMD.

The main content of the interview is as follows: Tim Millet believes that Apple’s introduction of the M1 chip is a new chapter for Apple to turn the Mac.

Tim Millet has worked in the chip manufacturing field for more than 30 years and has been with Apple for nearly 17 years. He says the M1 chip is a chance for Apple to see “real success”.

Tim Millet says it won’t take a “toothpaste” approach to advance the M2 chip to stay ahead of the curve by pushing the limits of technology again. We’re not going to divide the 20% performance increase over a 3-year period, we’re going to work hard to achieve that in 1 year.

Tim Millet says the integration of hardware and software delivers a superior experience for Mac users. Whether it’s the speed of video encoding or the maximum performance of a fanless MacBook Air, the Mac is backed by chips that provide excellent system and software support.

Tim Millet also acknowledged the current gaming gap in Apple Silicon chips. He said Apple will not use the tagline “Mac is a great gaming platform” in its communications, but Apple will continue to improve Apple Silicon’s gaming performance in the future.
