hey guys, i’m currently starting to learn neural networks and of course decided to install tensorflow. i got a m2 mac and a lot of ml programmers that i know told me that it would be a huge headache to work with tensorflow on mac, which seems weird to me as it has relatively good gpu that tf can use… some also said that it’s even difficult to install the library. well, i’m always ready to use google cloud, i am not going to train some extremely large datasets, i’m just learning. so if it’s that bad?
Hi @bbd03 Welcome to the Tensorflow forum ,
While TensorFlow can indeed be used on macOS, some users have reported challenges with GPU support and installation. However, for learning purposes and smaller datasets, it should still be feasible. Google Cloud is a viable alternative If you encounter challenges, Google Cloud offers convenient solutions for TensorFlow development, especially for learning purposes. You can utilize their resources without worrying about local setup complexities.
Thank you !
