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. *Apple�s Johny Srouji confirms all iPhone 16 models
have 8GB RAM*

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).

Did you consider that Android phones need more RAM because there is
so much junk installed by the phone makers?
Isn't RAM on-demand memory used for the OS and apps to perform current
operations rather than storage memory used for junk?
