> If you have the prerequisite hardware

Literally tens of millions of people of silicon MacBooks have sold send 2020 so it’s probably safe to say hundreds of millions of people have the necessary hardware. Not even getting into smartphones.

>which model you want

Have you personally searched for models in LM studio? It’s actually pretty straight forward and it tells you with a very clear icon if it will all fit in your GPU or if it will offload onto ram.

>drivers are up to date

Are you just making things up now? I run LM studio on an M1 MBpro (albeit very small model for small tasks with tool calls) and on a Linux (fedora) PC with an AMD GPU. In both cases i downloaded LM studio, quickly found models with their search, and started messing around. I am not a coder or engineer mind you, so clearly it isn’t that difficult.
