M1 Mac mini not using metal device "Apple M1"

[andrewortwein]

I have pulled the latest updates and the setup process goes much smoother now — thank you!

Unfortunately, the scripts still use my CPU. If I manually install tensor-metal, then the extraction scripts will successfully use my "Apple M1" metal device and the process is noticeably faster. But when I get to model training, I hit the same error as in #67.

Is anyone successfully training with metal on an M1 (not Pro) chip? Any thoughts on what code to dig into to troubleshoot?

FYI I did try implementing the workaround in #67 (comment), but as noted below that comment, the script still uses the CPU.
