ANE is OK, but it pretty much needs to pack your single vector into at least 128. (Draw Things recently shipped ANE support inside our custom inference stack, without any private APIs). For token generation, that is not ideal, unless you are using a drafter so there are more tokens to go at one inference step.
It is an interesting area to explore, and yes,this is a tech demo. There is a long way to go to production-ready, but I am more optimistic now than a few months back (with Flash-MoE, DFlash, and some tricks I have).
