Could you build this?
Partial While standard photo UI can be vibe-coded, running modern generative infill and Segment Anything (SAM) locally and performantly on macOS requires Apple Silicon CoreML/Metal optimization.
What it would actually take: The app requires a native Swift/AppKit or optimized Metal architecture with custom tile-based image pipeline caching for sub-pixel precision. The hard part is quantizing and compiling heavy diffusion and SAM models to CoreML/MPS (Metal Performance Shaders) to achieve fast offline inference with low memory pressure on baseline Apple Silicon chips. This demands expertise in native macOS development and machine learning on-device compilation.
