Ask HN: Reproducible PyTorch installation instructions on macOS M1 chip?

3 points by dustingetz 3y ago

I have been trying to play with AI tools on my Mac Studio but have failed many times. What versions of python/pytorch are known to work? What MacOS versions known good? How do I do this in a sandboxed python env? Should I be using virtualbox, will that even have gpu access? Must I use anaconda, which does not appear reproducible at all (not even god knows what it is doing to my env)?

What part isn’t working? For only using a CPU “pip install torch” works straight out of the box on any recent Python version regardless of how you manage your environment.

I can recommend multipass to run (Ubuntu) VMs on M1. It works out of the box.
