Apple, are you paying attention?


What applications benefit the most from having this much RAM available?


Machine learning. Video editing. Large databases. Some scientific applications. Even high res photo editing / digital art can easily benefit from 32-64 GB once you get enough layers going. Some types of simulations.

Only somewhat snarkily: Any browser with more than a few web apps open, because developers don't believe limited resources exist any more. Electron apps.
