No, @GamingChairModel@lemmy.world is right.

What does Rosetta have anything to do with what OpenAI needs? Machine learning on Macs is done in MLX or something else with Metal, running OSX. Most agenic frameworks or other ML-related infrastructure are just Python, or open code that can compile on OSX/Macs just fine. In fact, OSX is often the first target platform.

This even includes inter-node frameworks for clustering Macs together.

No one doing "AI" on Macs is using Rosetta. There's no point, and its a bad idea. They're doing everything in OSX, which works fine, and I can't imagine what OpenAI would be doing with them that wouldn't work in OSX.

But maybe I'm missing what you're implying here. And I'm sorry to come off as thorny, but condescending comments like "I’m not here to teach a computer science class" rub me the wrong way.

If you don’t know, then you are really not in a position to say that I’m wrong LMAO

Have fun with your little “my ignorance is proof that I’m right!” concept, lol

Oh, and the fact that you even brought “AI” into the conversation is hilarious

The two of you should get together and do a stand-up routine called “I and O my God I have no idea what I’m talking about”

You didn't answer my question.

What does rosetta have to do with any of this?
