ANE on Mac LLMs: 1.14x–1.49x Only for Prefill, M6 Dual 16-Core Changes Game

The article analyzes three ways to use Apple's Neural Engine (ANE) for LLM inference on Macs, revealing that 1.14x–1.49x speedups only apply to first-token latency (prefill), not token generation; M5 chips trade speed for power efficiency, while M6's dual 16-core ANE enables both speed and efficiency gains but is limited by 32GB RAM.

M6 Launch Day: 9.1 vs 10.6 tok/s — Should You Upgrade 16GB to 32GB for Local LLMs?

Real-world tests show M6 MacBook Pro hits 9.1 tok/s on Qwen3.8-27B 4-bit, reaching 86% of the 10.6 tok/s bandwidth ceiling; the article explains why the dual neural engine doesn't accelerate token generation, debunks the 8-model limit as a software filter, and provides a three-tier buying guide based on memory bandwidth and model size.
