"description": "SAM now supports training custom LoRA adapters to specialize local MLX models on specific knowledge domains. Export conversations or documents as training data, configure parameters like rank, alpha, learning rate, and epochs, then train adapters that enhance your models with domain-specific knowledge. Trained adapters appear as selectable models in the picker and can be used immediately for inference. Training is performed on-device using Apple's MLX framework for optimal performance on Apple Silicon."
