To add to what people said, most of these ML models target an ML library like TensorFlow or PyTorch.

Those in turn have hardware accelerated backends. Traditionally they’ve only had CUDA backends but Apple ported large chunks of both to Metal as well.

So none of these libraries really target CUDA. In fact they’d run fine without a supported GPU but much slower.
