Cerebras Unveils World’s Largest AI Chip
A single CS-2 system can support models up to 120 trillion parameters.
- By Amit Naik
In a bid to support the largest models, American semiconductor company Cerebras recently unveiled the world’s first multi-million core AI cluster architecture. This new technology handles neural networks with up to 120 trillion parameters. It is said to have the computing power of a human brain.
Large language models like Microsoft NLG, OpenAI’s GPT-3, NVIDIA’s Megatron, and BAAI’s Wu Dao 2.0 have grown exponentially in the last few years. To run these models at scale, companies require a cluster of graphics processors, megawatts of power, and dedicated teams to operate them. As a result, chips that support AI at scale have become crucial more than ever before, focusing on scaling massive memory, compute, and communication.
