DESCRIPTION
The AI startup Cerebras has shown that a single wafer-scale Cerebras CS-1 can outperform one of the fastest supercomputers in the US by more than 200 times for physics simulations and many AI applications. They had 0.86 PetaFLOPS of performance on the single wafer system. The waferchip was built on a 16 nanomber FF process. The WSE is the largest chip ever built. It is 46,225 square millimeters and contains 1.2 Trillion transistors and 400,000 AI optimized compute cores. The memory architecture ensures each of these cores operates at maximum efficiency. It provides 18 gigabytes of fast, on-chip memory distributed
