Apple quietly open-sources MLX to run models on Mac chips
Apple just quietly dropped MLX and MLX Data, a new machine learning framework tailored specifically for Apple Silicon. Inspired by PyTorch and Jax, it takes advantage of unified memory so CPUs and GPUs can process tasks without moving data, packing enough punch to train and run models like Llama and Stable Diffusion locally. Why it matters: Apple is finally giving developers the tools to turn MacBooks into capable generative AI workstations.
