Summary
BaseRT, a native Metal inference runtime, leverages Apple M5's redesigned GPU with dedicated Neural Accelerators to significantly improve large language model inference throughput. It outperforms existing solutions like llama.cpp and MLX on Apple hardware.
AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.
What happened
Apple's M5 generation introduces a redesigned GPU architecture in which every core carries a dedicated Neural Accelerator: on-die matrix units exposed through the Metal~4 tensor API. We show that BaseRT, our native Metal inference runtime for large language models on Apple Silicon, exploits these units to push...
