Demos
MLX
We are demonstrating large model inference and training on device using MLX. MLX is a flexible array framework that is optimized for Apple silicon, and brought to you by Apple Machine Learning Research. It enables training and inference of arbitrarily complex models on Apple silicon powered devices with great brevity and flexibility.
In this demo we showcase fine-tuning of a 7B parameter LLM on an iPhone, image generation using a large diffusion model on an iPad, and text generation using a number of large language models on a M2 Ultra Mac Studio and M3 Macbook Pro.
Private Federated Learning (PFL)
This demo showcases Apple’s Private Federated Learning (PFL) technology. PFL-research is the open-source framework enabling this technology for research simulations, open sourced in March 2024 at the Apple PPML Workshop. Here we are able to show how Siri can play Music and Podcasts on iPhones, which leverages several technologies such as Siri Signals and Siri Inference, Private Federated Learning (PFL) and Differential Privacy (DP). This highlights a user-facing feature in iOS that was shipped, thanks to this framework.
