Is there an apple silicon / M1 build of adb?

Running all apps native improves my computer performance and battery life considerably its like magic and I am already running on Android Studio Preview Arctic Fox for some time now beta 4 but I am not getting why adb is still Intel. Emulators are also compiled for apple but why not adb ? I am searching on internet without luck too as if no one is concerned... So maybe somehow android Studio installs wrong tools for me ? I just cannot believe no one cares so should be that my install is wrong.

This morning I updated platform-tools (according to SDK Manager, 32.0.0) and the adb binary is now a universal binary. So now, there finally appears to be a M1 build of adb.
