Our take
Cerebras Systems creates super-fast computer chips for high-functioning AI systems. In 2019 they launched the world's largest computer chip, many times larger than those already available. With this one piece of hardware, they pressed fast forward on machine learning, with significant implications for the energy, medical, and defense sectors.
Founded by leading computer architects, the vision behind Cerebras was to enable the growth of AI through better hardware. Many of the management team are ex SeaMicro, a technology hardware company that sold for $334 million in 2012. So it's clear these experienced technologists know how to bring a successful product to market. Cerebras is already outpacing the more established chip makers such as Nvidia and Intel, particularly as neither chip maker is specifically focused on providing for AI systems.
Cerebras secured backing from some of the top technology venture capital firms early on, including big hitters Sequoia Capital. In 2109 Cerebras announced a multi-year partnership with the US Energy Department. Further confirmation that fast-tracked AI has the potential to impact a variety of industries in a big way.
