Apple’s Minions turns idle Macs into a GPU cloud and cuts 10-hour waits

Apple researchers have described Minions, an internal system that pools the GPUs of idle Apple silicon Macs into a shared cloud for machine learning inference, in a paper Apple published on its Machine Learning Research site in October 2026. The six authors, all listed with an Apple affiliation, say inference jobs that once waited more than ten... Weiterlesen: Apple’s Minions turns idle Macs into a GPU cloud and cuts 10-hour waits
