Do any deep learning frameworks even have metal support? I could see inference working well on these laptops but they lack so much of the specialized hardware I'd be surprised if training was even possible for most useable models.


Apple is maintaining a Tensorflow plugin: https://developer.apple.com/metal/tensorflow-plugin/


There's been work on PyTorch to move some over, but it's still all CPU (which still, on an M1 isn't HORRIBLE) last time I checked.


Tensorflow supports Metal AFAIK.
