Today, Apple's M- architecture employs a unified memory configuration.
The tight integration significantly improves performance, but the
trade-off is that it isn't "old school" modular anymore. I guess that
if you really wanted a RAM upgrade, you could swap out the whole CPU
package.
Which is why it’s an evolutionary dead-end. A friend suggested to me,
around the time of the M1 chips, that the rest of the PC industry was
going to follow Apple’s lead, but Intel has already admitted it was a
mistake doing so, and is going back to modular memory.
