Cerebras Trains Llama Models To Leap Over GPUs
It was only a few months ago when waferscale compute pioneer Cerebras Systems was bragging that a handful of its WSE-3 engines lashed together could run circles around Nvidia GPU instances based on Nvidia’s “Hopper” H100 GPUs when running the open source Llama 3.1 foundation model created by Meta Platforms. …

Google Covers Its Compute Engine Bases Because It Has To
The minute that search engine giant Google wanted to be a cloud, and the several years later that Google realized that companies were not ready to buy full-on platform services that masked the underlying hardware but wanted lower level infrastructure services that gave them more optionality as well as more responsibility, it was inevitable that Google Cloud would have to buy compute engines from Intel, AMD, and Nvidia for its server fleet. …

You Are Paying The Clouds To Build Better AI Than They Will Rent You
Think of it as the ultimate offload model.
One of the geniuses of the cloud – perhaps the central genius – is that a big company that would have a large IT budget, perhaps on the order of hundreds of millions of dollars per year, and that has a certain amount of expertise creates a much, much larger IT organization with billions of dollars – and with AI now tens of billions of dollars – in investments and rents out the vast majority of that capacity to third parties, who essentially allow that original cloud builder to get their own IT operations for close to free. …
