Tried to run diffusers/stable_diffusion.ipynb on Mac M3 and ran into errors

[chrismattmann]

Describe the bug

I tried to run diffusers/stable_diffusion.ipynb on Mac M3 and it failed in several parts, including:

• nvidia-smi call doesn't work
• wasn't able to download the torch models due to some weird issues like ImportError: cannot import name 'DIFFUSERS_SLOW_IMPORT' from 'diffusers.utils' due to conflicting libraries
• cuda calls needed to be replaced with mps device

I went ahead and updated the notebook and have a PR I could submit if interested that fixes it. I just made a copy of the notebook and added _macosx.ipynb to it. I realize some fancier way could have been to try some if/else guess system types in the notebook else, but I just opted for fixing it separately.

Reproduction

Tried on a brand new Mac M3

Logs

System Info

Brand new Mac M3 Max running Sonoma 14.6

How did you fix this?

@pcuenca the fix was this line:

  if isosx:
   # This is added to get around some issues of Torch not loading models correctly on Mac OS X
   !pip install --upgrade huggingface-hub==0.26.2 transformers==4.46.1 tokenizers==0.20.1 diffusers==0.31.0

I Googled around and found someone saying that you need these versions of those libraries to make it work on Mac OSX and this worked for me.
