It's interesting that Apple also actively develops https://github.com/apple/axlearn https://github.com/apple/axlearn, which is a library on top of Jax. Seems like half the ML teams at Apple use PyTorch, and the other half uses Jax. Maybe its split between Google Cloud and AWS?
- josephg 2y agoIn my experience, this is pretty normal in large companies like Apple. Coordination costs are real. Unless there's a good reason to standardize on a single tool, its usually easier for teams to just pick whichever tool makes the most sense based on the problem they're solving and what the team has experience with.

- te_chris 2y agoI don’t know as haven’t worked there, but have always heard Apple described more as a series of companies/startups than one coherent entity like Meta or whatever. Each is allowed a large degree of autonomy from what I’ve heard.
