Mac mini m1 in parallel for Apple professional app

Do you think it can be possible upscale the mac mini M1 gpu & cpu capabilities by connecting in parallel two or more Mac mini M1?

This can be a great feature for all the Apple Pro app.

Not for Final Cut Pro, but you can certainly take advantage of several mac mini M1 with Compressor. This capability is not limited to M1 macs, and it has existed for years. In order to get the most from it, though, you need large batches and a fast connection. The current model lacks a 10Gb Ethernet but of course has Thunderbolt - but only two ports. This interconnection part is going to be the bottleneck for a possible render farm made of M1 minis.
