On: Apple Create ML: Creating an Image Classifier Model

I'm really curious if this training process is optimized for the new 8-core neural engine on the M1 SoC. I'd like to see a comparison between the performance on M1 vs Intel macs.

I supposed this might serve as a good demonstration of how the neural engine performs?

edit: Perhaps running inference in the iOS simulator on the macs would also be a comparison point?

We're actually running a benchmark of that very thing this week! I'll follow up with what we find.
