Apple develops Minions to pool idle Mac GPUs for AI cloud
Apple has developed a system called Minions that pools unused GPU capacity from Macs and applies it to AI workloads, Techzine reported on Tuesday. The system finds available computing resources and automatically splits tasks across multiple devices, factoring in Macs that are offline or already running at peak performance. Apple researchers said Minions is used mainly for AI inference, and multiple internal teams already use it. Data security remains a challenge.
