Apple is making surprisingly small improvements, considering how people thought the M1 was like the second coming of Christ.

Looks like M1 to M3 is going to be roughly +20-30%. In the same time AMD is going from Ryzen 5000 to Ryzen 8000.
Even Intel got a significantly bigger improvement than that, going from the 10900K to the 14900K, and they had 1 trash generation and the 14900K is basically just a 13900K from 2022.

2014-2020 has Intel on 14nm.

Nov 2020 to Sep 2023 was 5nm.

Oct 2023 is 3nm.

M1 was 5nm. M3 is 3nm

Ryzen 5000 was 7nm. Ryzen 8000 is going to be 4nm (5nm family)

Intel did go from 14++++++ to "Intel 7", so that was like 2 node jumps I think
