Leaker Aaron Perris revealed evidence of Apple's 'Harbor' app, which reportedly turns Macs into private AI inference servers and pools memory across multiple devices via Thunderbolt 5.

Details

Leaker Aaron Perris discovered evidence of a new Apple Mac app called Harbor, currently in private preview under the Claris brand.
The app is designed to turn Macs into private AI inference servers, allowing users to run open-weight models locally on Apple silicon so data does not reach the cloud.
Harbor reportedly supports clustering multiple Macs over Thunderbolt 5 to pool unified memory, enabling larger models and higher concurrency than a single machine.
The setup is described as automatic, detecting devices to form a cluster without manual configuration or command-line expertise.
