Getting started with the Virtual Research Environment: https://security.apple.com/documentation/private-cloud-compute/virtualresearchenvironment

"The PCC Virtual Research Environment (VRE) requires a Mac with Apple silicon with at least 16GB of unified memory and the latest macOS 15.1 Developer Preview. For optimal VRE performance, we recommend using a Mac with at least 24GB of unified memory.”

Documentation

Proud of my colleagues who have driven the work on this - we just launched a huge amount of security material for Apple PCC (Private Cloud Compute), including a new security guide, Virtual Research Environment, and source code

Private Cloud Compute (PCC) fulfills computationally intensive requests for Apple Intelligence while providing groundbreaking privacy and security protections — by bringing our industry-leading device security model into the cloud. To build public trust in our system, we’re making it possible for researchers to inspect and verify PCC’s security and privacy guarantees by releasing tools and resources including a comprehensive PCC Security Guide, the software binaries and source code of key PCC components, and — in a first for any Apple platform — a Virtual Research Environment, which allows anyone to install and test the PCC software on a Mac with Apple silicon.

Found this fellow on the deck. Thankfully he (I think) moved before I put my hand right on him. I’m a little sad because I don’t think he’ll survive the colder weather coming in the next few days. 🥲
My wife and I just finished The Acolyte, and we really liked it. I don’t understand the hate.
