Could you build this?
Partial While wrapping MLX and Qwen-TTS in a Swift/macOS GUI is manageable, integrating local on-device neural audio synthesis with memory management and Apple Silicon hardware acceleration requires specialized ML/native engineering.
What it would actually take: A production Mac app would be built in Swift/SwiftUI using Apple's MLX framework or CoreML to run quantized Qwen-TTS weights locally. The difficult aspects include optimizing token-to-audio latency on varying Unified Memory configurations, managing streaming audio buffers without glitching, and fine-tuning quantization for audio fidelity. This requires knowledge of Apple Silicon neural engine / GPU optimization and ML audio architectures.
