Could you build this?
No Distributed tensor parallelism and pipeline parallel inference across heterogeneous macOS and Linux machines with Apple Silicon requires specialized distributed systems and ML systems engineering.
What it would actually take: This requires a distributed ML runtime written in Python/C++ communicating over low-latency network protocols (e.g., gRPC, Ray, or custom NCCL/MPI equivalents for Apple Silicon) to split MLX model weights via pipeline or tensor parallelism across machines. Key hurdles include handling heterogenous OS networking (macOS vs Asahi/Omarchy Linux), non-uniform memory bandwidth, and maintaining a unified KV cache and sampling state. Developing this requires expert-level knowledge of distributed LLM serving runtimes and MLX kernel internals.
