Tensorflow on M1 mac using pyenv and poetry instead of conda

@TurboVince can you try using virtual env. The basic instructions after creating venv work fine on M1

python3 -m venv ~/venv-metal
source ~/venv-metal/bin/activate
python -m pip install -U pip

and tensorflow

python -m pip install tensorflow-macos
python -m pip install tensorflow-metal
python -m pip install poetry

Hey @TurboVince, I use a virtual env using poetry, and it works fine.

This may vary depending on your Python version. Apparently using Python 3.11 to install tensorflow-macos 2.12 does not work yet (Not sure why). Apart from that, everything works great. GPU is available after installing tensorflow-metal, and there are some limitation when using optimizers such as tf.keras.optimizers.Adam.

Let's give it a try and we can see how that works.
