SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 27 (Reuters) – Cerebras Systems Inc on Tuesday unveiled tools to let AI developers access its oversized chips to run applications, offering a much cheaper option than industry-standard Nvidia Inc's (NVDA.O) processors, the company said.Access to Nvidia's graphic processing units (GPUs), often via cloud computing providers, can be hard to come by and expensive to run to train and deploy the large-scale artificial intelligence models used in applications such as OpenAI's ChatGPT – a process developers call inference.”We're delivering performance that GPUs just can't deliver,” Cerebras CEO Andrew Feldman told Reuters in an interview. “We're delivering it…

Ambitious artificial intelligence computing startup Cerebras Systems Inc. is upping the ante in its battle with Nvidia Corp., launching what it calls the world's fastest AI inference service, now available in the cloud.

Inference services are a mainstay of the AI industry and, according to Cerebras, are also the fastest growing segment, currently accounting for approximately 40% of all AI workloads in the cloud. But existing AI inference services don't seem to meet all customers' needs. “There's…

Technician holding Cerebras Systems’ Wafer-Scale Engine, a giant computer chipCerebras Systems AI is everywhere these days, and we’ve become accustomed to chatbots answering our questions like oracles or conjuring up magical images. Those responses are called inferences in the trade and the colossal computer programs from which they rain are housed in massive data centers referred to as ‘the cloud.’ Now, brace for a downpour. Cerebras Systems, known for its revolutionary wafer-scale computer chip, big as a dinner plate, is about to unleash one of the top AI models—Meta’s open-source LLaMA 3.1—on its chip. Not beside it or above it…
Although childhood cancer prognosis has improved significantly in recent years, treatments have long-term side effects. The VIE project, which aims to improve the quality of life of childhood cancer survivors through healthy lifestyle choices, will be expanded to all pediatric oncology centres in Quebec starting this fall. More than 80% of children and young people with cancer hope for a cure, but of those who survive, two-thirds will suffer later from the effects of their treatment. This kind of fairly aggressive treatment can last for two years, for example, in patients with leukemia, the most common form of childhood cancer.…
