Apple's MLX adding CUDA support

Is this for Mac's with NVIDIA cards in them or Apple Metal/Apple Silicon speaking CUDA?... I can't really tell.

Edit: looks like it's "write once, use everywhere". Write MLX, run it on Linux CUDA, and Apple Silicon/Metal.

Seems you already found the answer.

I’ll note Apple hasn’t shipped an Nvidia card in a very very long time. Even on the Mac pros before Apple Silicon they only ever sold AMD cards.

My understanding from rumors is that they had a falling out over the problems with the dual GPU MacBook Pros and the quality of drivers.

I have no idea if sticking one in on the PCI bus let you use it for AI stuff though.

That particular MBP model had a high rate of GPU failure because it ran too hot.

I imagined the convo between Steve Jobs and Jensen Huang went like this:

S: your GPU is shit

J: your thermal design is shit

S: f u

J: f u too

Apple is the kind of company that hold a grudge for a very long time, their relationships with suppliers are very one way, their way or the highway.
