Article is about laptop cpus.
M2 is the budget entry chip. M2 Pro/Max is a big jump up.
there's basically nothing out there for laptops that comes close to the M2 Pro.
the only benefit Intel/AMD have right now is access to external and better graphics chips made by companies that aren't Intel.
desktops / servers are a different matter, but again, the article is talking about laptops.
The Intel Core i9-13980HX laptop CPU is between 20% and 100% faster than the M2 Max on nearly every benchmark.
