Farewell to 8GB RAM Macs: Apple Upgrades Entire Lineup to 16GB as Standard

Apple has officially discontinued all Macs with 8GB RAM, upgrading its entire lineup to start with at least 16GB RAM as standard. This sudden change comes just months after Apple executives argued in favor of 8GB RAM in entry-level Macs, stating it was enough for most users' tasks. However, the need for more RAM has been pushed by new AI features in Apple's products that require 8GB RAM to function.
