> I'm curious on why you think that, say, an M2 running linux will ever be a better choice for AI workloads than an M5 Pro running MacOS?

I mean that if Asahi starts to gain on Apple with respect to generation of M chip they support. If Asahi supported M4 chips...

But clearly, my dream hasn't come true yet :-)

I believe that Linux would give me more control over exactly what is running on the machine (and using up precioius memory). Maybe it would also have better support for the toolchain/ecosystem needed to run local inference?
