I have a Mac M1 Pro. Given to me by my work.

DO NOT. I REPEAT. DO NOT USE A MAC TO DO DEEP LEARNING.

You will not have a good time.

Their decision to go with their own architecture (One chip as CPU and GPU) has completely gimped them in this space.

Most popular DL frameworks ship with CUDA. Cuda is controlled by Nvidia. Native M1 chips are not compatible with CUDA.

This means by doing DL on a Mac you are locking yourself out of the entire DL ecosystem.

Additionally, they (Apple) are also highly restrictive upon what they do and do not allow on their eco system leading to a VERY restrictive development environment. Seriously, getting something like OpenRefine working on a Mac was not possible due to their stance of "Only authorized programs may be installed here". At the time of my attempt, OpenRefine, a highly popular framework for inspecting massive CSV files, was not authorized on the new Mac M1 series.

Sure they may eventually deign to authorize something as popular as OpenRefine... but frankly you will be better off getting actual work done instead of waiting for a company to realize that nobody is big enough to police the entirety of the internet.
