# Using Stable Diffusion with Core ML on Apple Silicon

_Tool · published 2022-12-01_

This guide walks through deploying Stable Diffusion, the open-source image generation model, on Apple Silicon devices using Apple's Core ML framework for optimized on-device inference. The approach leverages Core ML's hardware-specific optimizations to run the model efficiently across the CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine available on Apple Silicon chips.

For film and post-production professionals working on Mac-based pipelines, this represents a practical path to running generative image workflows locally — without relying on cloud infrastructure — offering both speed and privacy benefits for on-set or in-studio use.
