MLX does have decent/good software support among ML stacks. Targeting both iOS and mac is a big win in itself. I wonder what's possible, what the software situation is today with the PC NPU's. AMD's XDNA has been around for a while, XDNA2 jumps from 10->40 TOps. AMD iGPU can access huge memory: is it similar here? The "AMDXDNA" driver merged in 6.14 last winter: where are we now?
