Still weird, and against brand, for them to lead with this particular model from that particular company. The groans are still earned.
They don’t lead with it. The title of the actual article is “Local and Distributed Large LLM Inference with MLX and RDMA on Mac Studio”.
The submitter changed it to “Apple ML Research: Muse Spark Open with MLX on Mac Studio”
I find it bizarre of Apple to do anything publicly in partnership with Meta. I always thought the reasons Apple snubbed Facebook were out of values and principles not business. That could be wrong. Now that Meta has a line of business that Apple can finally charge a platform tax on there is new reason to start sleeping with them.
