## Resource

On this episode, we’re joined by Andrew Feldman , Founder and CEO of Cerebras Systems . Andrew and the Cerebras team are responsible for building the largest-ever computer chip and the fastest AI-specific processor in the industry. We discuss: - The advantages of using large chips for AI work. - Cerebras Systems’ process for building chips optimized for AI. - Why traditional GPUs aren’t the optimal machines for AI work. - Why efficiently distributing computing resources is a significant challenge for AI work. - How much faster Cerebras Systems’ machines are than other processors on the market. - Reasons why some ML-specific chip companies fail and what Cerebras does differently. - Unique challenges for chip makers and hardware companies. - Cooling and heat-transfer techniques for Cerebras machines. - How Cerebras approaches building chips that will fit the needs of customers for years to come. - Why the strategic vision for what data to collect for ML needs more discussion.
