Dear Team,

As new Intel Mac’s are no longer produced and with time fewer will remain in use, we will be stopping testing and eventually building macOS x86\_64 binaries after the release 2.2.0 is complete (mid January 2024). We will not be producing macOS x86\_64 binaries for Release 2.3.0.

Here is the reference issue: [114602](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/114602)

The following binary builds will be deprecated:

- macOS x86\_64 Conda binaries for Python 3.8-3.11
- macOS x86\_64 Wheel binaries for Python 3.8-3.12

This change will affect the following projects: PyTorch, TorchVision, TorchAudio, TorchText, TorchData.

If you have any questions, please comment below or reach out to us on this thread.

Team PyTorch
