A new command-line interface tool called Sisi has been released, enabling semantic image search directly on a user's local machine without relying on third-party APIs. Developed using node-mlx, a machine learning framework for Node.js, Sisi supports GPU acceleration on Macs with Apple Silicon and CPU support on x64 Macs and Linux systems. The tool indexes images by computing embeddings with a CLIP model and stores them locally, allowing for fast cosine similarity searches against tens of thousands of images. AI
