It is difficult to compare these numbers across different architectures because how a "core" is defined. That Thinkpad laptop is x86, the Apple one is ARM. They are using different instruction sets and architectures
Based on the performance of the M1 chips in the Macbook air, the Apple chips could perform better than their competition.
I mean the M1 max GPU isn't wimpy by most standards (its got around the same performance as next gen game consoles), but yeah the one in the Lenovo is much more powerful.
the M1 GPU (specifically 16 core and 32 core ones, which don't translate 1:1 with CUDA cores or CPU cores) are actually not wimpy. The are vastly superior to Intel's integrated GPUs.
While it is true that you can buy a laptop with a superior dedicated Nvidia/AMD card, in terms of frames per second, they'll require a fan as loud as a jet engine to cool and still burn your legs, plus your battery life will be 20 minutes gaming.
At least that Thinkpad laptop has a GPU with 16 GB of memory and 6144 cores, instead of this wimpy integrated GPU.

Well the GPU isn't x86_64 or ARM64, it's just a separate proprietary thing, but yes. Probably not a 1-to-1 on the GPU threads.
