Research direction

No source files, tests, or build entry points are identified in the issue. Start by locating the existing x86 macOS binary build and release workflow; done means a usable tf compression binary is published for Apple Silicon Macs.

Description

Currently, I am engaged in a project that utilizes federated learning. Although I have the capability to utilize the most recent TensorFlow with GPU support, I am unable to run tf compression. The pre-built binaries for tf compression are currently only available for x86 macOS and not for the Apple Silicon platform. Therefore, I would like to request that a version of tf compression be developed and made accessible for Macs with Apple silicon.
