Porting Vision-Language Models to Apple Silicon with MLX: A Tutorial Series

Are you interested in running cutting-edge AI models efficiently on your Mac? We're excited to share a detailed tutorial series on porting Phi-3-Vision to Apple's MLX framework!

This 8-part series covers:

1. Basic Implementation: Translating core components from PyTorch to MLX
2. Su-scaled Rotary Position Embeddings (SuRoPE): Enabling 128K token contexts
3. Batching: Processing multiple inputs simultaneously for improved efficiency
4. Caching: Optimizing inference speed for autoregressive generation
5. Choice Selection: Implementing constrained outputs for multiple-choice scenarios
6. Constrained Decoding: Guiding model outputs with flexible constraints
7. LoRA Training: Fine-tuning models efficiently with Low-Rank Adaptation
8. Agent & Toolchain System: Building flexible AI workflows

Whether you're an AI enthusiast, researcher, or developer looking to leverage Apple Silicon, this series provides a deep dive into optimizing advanced vision-language models. You'll learn hands-on techniques for model porting, performance optimization, and extending model capabilities.

Check out the full series for a comprehensive guide to running state-of-the-art AI on your Mac!
