On November 11th, the developer Aaron Perris foundAppleDevelopment name Harbor The Mac application, currently a private preview in the Claris brand, aims to allow users to run open weight models directly on Apple chip Mac。
The presentation published by Perris shows that Harbor can browse, download and load models in applications; two or more Mac connections that support Thunderbolt 5 will allow for the application of automatic identification devices and clustering, bringing together a unified memory as a reasoned resource for the operation of models that exceed a single capacity, or for the carrying of additional simultaneous requests。
The presentation emphasized local processing: data were kept on the user ' s own hardware and model management and clustering were completed by application. 9to5Mac states that the positioning of this application is a lower threshold for the construction of a private AI reasoning server。
