One day we might see on-package DRAM, even.
Intel's taken inspiration from Apple's M1 and M2 chips with a new Meteor Lake chip that includes LPDDR5X inside the chip package. The neatly compact processor has been teased with two Samsung memory packages loaded onto it—a bid to improve performance and reduce a device's overall footprint., includes 16GB LPDDR5X-7500 memory from Samsung, bearing a close resemblance to how Apple has configured its latest ARM M2 chips.
You could say Intel was copying Apple's homework, but it is fair to say this sort of chip package is an obvious extension of new advanced packaging technologies used by Intel, TSMC and Samsung. Apple just got there first, at scale, while Intel has been toying with the application of this sort of integrated memory for a couple years now.
For a thin and light laptop, the benefits of such a package are obvious. It's much smaller than your average processor package with memory surrounding it on a motherboard, and could provide a step up in efficiency or performance due to the proximity of the memory to the chip. The downside is that if the memory runs into a fault, then the entire chip has to be replaced.
