"We believe that large language models are under-hyped, not over-hyped," said Cerebras co-founder and CEO Andrew Feldman in a press briefing. "We are just beginning to see the impact of them; there will be winners and new emergents in each of three layers in the ecosystem, in the hardware layer, the infrastructure layer, and the application layer."

Feldman predicted, "Next year you will see a sweeping rise in the impact of large language models in various parts of the economy." 

Partnering with cloud computing service provider Cirrascale, Cerebras is offering what it calls "pay-per-model" compute time, a flat rate to train to convergence a large language model such as OpenAI's GPT-3 on clusters of its CS2 computers designed for deep learning.
