Core AI is Apple's on-device ML runtime in iOS 27 / macOS 27 and the successor to Core ML: PyTorch models are exported with Apple's coreai-torch (LLMs: coreai.llm.export) into .aimodel bundles that run on the GPU or the Neural Engine, e.g. Qwen3-8B 4-bit decodes at 94 tok/s on an M4 Max GPU, MLX 90 under the same protocol (apple-silicon-llm-bench, macOS 27 beta, 2026-06).

google/embeddinggemma-300m as a single static Core AI graph: the full sentence-transformers pipeline (transformer → mean pooling → dense projection → L2 normalize) runs in-graph, so one call returns a normalized 768-d embedding. On-device semantic search / RAG for macOS 27 / iOS 27 beta.

Runs out of the box with CoreAIKit's TextEmbedder:

Retrieval prompt prefixes (task: search result | query: / title: none | text: ) are applied automatically by TextEmbedder.

Precision: fp32. Cross-runtime parity vs the torch SentenceTransformer pipeline is exact to 6 decimal places (see reference.json). fp16 variants (full cast AND mixed-precision autocast) produce NaN embeddings on-device — Gemma3 activations overflow half precision — so fp32 is shipped; a smaller int8 variant is future work.
