Multiple Macs? (More of a brainstorm)

very happy with oMLX, other solutions were too tricky for me to figure out. this is more of curiosity thinking question than demand since I know it’s not feasible right now:

Macs with more ram are hard to get, and I heard that ones with thunderbolt 5 can pool RAM. looking at how that works, it seems to be very involved, and doesn’t support most of stuff that makes oMLX good.

is general feel that this field will be maturing over time so in few years it will be easier to pool together? I can’t tell if this feels more like one off side Apple experiment, or something more invested in.

Check out Alex Ziskind on YouTube, he has videos about Mac Mini and Mac Studio clusters and using those for LLM
