You know, they don’t mention the neural engine. I know very little of ML but maybe the neural engine isn’t helpful on the training side?

The API of the neural engine is closed for some reason.

It is not. See https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreml and https://github.com/apple/coremltools.

The neural engine on the Apple A11 wasn't exposed to apps at least at launch, but that's no longer a thing on A12 onwards.
