Description

Given that this is the only official package endorsed by Apple, would it be possible to post benchmarks against some of the Nvidia GPUs available in the market so that we can understand where Mac M1/M2/M3 Max->Ultra system stand in terms of raw speed with respect to training and inference ?

This could be a good starting point.
