I understand that the CPU version of LightGBM on MacBook M1 and M2 chips is currently not officially supported and can only be obtained through Conda-forge. However, I would like to know if there have been any updates or announcements regarding the availability of GPU support for LightGBM on these chips.

  • I can see based on the discussions on github, the issue/feature request is still open and they don't seem to have capacity or priority over m1,m2 gpu support. – sastaengineer Jul 11 '23 at 18:13

Following @sastaengineer comment, there are some issues still opened (availability of binary python package for M1, installation errors or performance between M1 and M2). These issues have helpful answers from maintainers, but the best solution seems to be using conda, conda install -c conda-forge lightgbm.
