I don't think Awni should be dismissed as a "marketing account" - they're an engineer at Apple who's been driving the MLX project for a couple of years now, they've earned a lot of respect from me.

Given how secretive Apple is, oh my, its super duper marketing account.

Jeff Geerling and a few others also got access to similarly specced mac clusters. They replicated this performance.

The tooling involved has improved significantly over the past year.
