Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine?

The Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine (WSE-3) is the largest silicon chip ever built, encompassing an entire 300mm silicon wafer with 4 trillion transistors, 900,000 AI cores, and 44 GB of on-chip SRAM.

Who founded Cerebras Systems?

Cerebras was founded in 2016 in Sunnyvale, California, by Andrew Feldman, Gary Lauterbach, Michael James, Sean Lie, and Jean-Philippe Fricker.

What are the advantages of wafer-scale computing?

By keeping all 900,000 cores and 44 GB of SRAM on a single continuous piece of silicon, Cerebras eliminates slow board-to-board network cables, providing thousands of times more memory bandwidth than traditional GPU clusters.
