Just as iPhone batteries are laughably puny, so is iPhone RAM where we've discussed that Apple's 1% to 3% RAM efficiency can't overcome a 200%
difference in RAM to modern Android phones (where RAM is plentiful).
This article says it outright that the cheap crappy lack of RAM in iPhones
is a key determinant in why those iPhones can't run Apple's AI algorithms.

"Srouji explained that Apple Intelligence was one of the reasons
for the RAM increase"
Apple has always cheaped out on RAM & batteries in the iPhone, but AI is forcing Apple's hand on the RAM (while the EU forced Apple on batteries).
