The MLX-LM maintainer outlined the project's vision: to be the central registry for MLX model implementations with tools for evaluation and profiling, planning to add vision models. He emphasized that inference engines can handle their own optimizations while importing mlx-lm as a library. To ensure the project's survival and health, the maintainer is aggressively closing non-critical PRs and issues to focus on core objectives.
