You are clearly on some sort of bender against Cerebras. I can tell from your comments that you are the same one guy with the same objections from Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit. Why are you obsessed with them? I mean sure you seem to know your stuff but some of your assumptions as to why they aren't viable are clearly stretches on the negative side (not that they are impossible, it is just that you don't have the info, and the company being in a cutthroat competitive business has no obligation to share their proprietary business information). And being so well informed you ought to know these are stretches except you are blinded by some emotion for some reason. I mean, sure their solution has downsides (which implementation is perfect), but they will have opportunities to improve in future iterations as they adapt to what the market actually wants rather than what they projected years ago before there was a clear signal. For now, they are a startup with an interesting solution that has some momentum in the marketplace. It is to be seen how they fare but your certainty that they won't succeed is certainly not warranted by the data. And oh, their customers include: Mistrial, Perplexity, Meta, IBM. All those know that the CEO pleaded guilty to accounting charges 18 years ago, after which he has worked continuously in the tech industry including at AMD. A bunch of blue-chip tech investors from OpenAI, AMD, the present CEO of Intel, etc invested with him knowing this. Please give it a rest.
