AI BriefingHugging Face Launches Diffusers App for Mac
Key point
Hugging Face has released a native app that runs Stable Diffusion quickly on Mac by leveraging Core ML.
Details
Hugging Face has launched the Diffusers for Mac app (version 1.1), optimized for Apple Silicon.
This app uses Core ML models instead of PyTorch's mps, maximizing performance by simultaneously utilizing the CPU, GPU, and the Apple Neural Engine (ANE). Through this, users can easily experience high-performance image generation via the Mac App Store without complex command-line setup.
Key features are as follows:
- Local execution and privacy protection: The entire generation process happens locally, so prompts and images are never leaked externally.
- Optimized performance: It optimally selects between GPU or ANE depending on device specifications, providing up to 2x faster speeds compared to before in some environments.
- Open source: Written in Swift and SwiftUI, the code is available for anyone to check and extend via GitHub.
