When does this happen?

IF The PyTorch MPS backend for Apple Metal is known to produce incorrect results for basic tensor operations, such as torch.arange(10, device='mps') returning all zeros and torch.ones(...).type(torch.int32) returning garbage values.

How others solved it

THEN Before relying on the MPS backend for production workloads, validate its correctness on critical operations. Consider using CPU until these PyTorch bugs are resolved. Monitor the official PyTorch issue tracker for fixes.

# Verify MPS behavior:
# torch.arange(10, device='mps') should not return all zeros.
# If incorrect, fall back to CPU.
