My first thought was that a built-in GPU could measure certain parameters about the display and adjust the color profile to be "pro" level accurate.

Most default / "auto" profiles for monitors and TVs are accurate enough for lay people out of the box. But for people who really need color accuracy, you need a calibration device. So maybe Apple is trying to obviate the need for a calibration device and have the "smart" monitor calibrate itself.

(The built-in GPU might even use data from an iPhone like the "color balance" feature Apple announced at the "Spring Loaded" keynote recently.[1] The AppleTV uses information from the IR array on the front of the iPhone to help calibrate your TV for use with AppleTV.)

They say in the AirTag video that "Everyone can participate without sharing their location with anyone, even Apple"
