Cerebras drops the fastest AI inference on Earth
Cerebras just launched its new AI inference service powered by the CS-3 system, clocking an eye-watering 1,800 tokens per second on Llama 3.1 8B. That is 20 times faster than hyperscale Nvidia GPUs while retaining full 16-bit precision at just 10 cents per million tokens. Why it matters: lightning-fast generation is critical for multi-step AI agents to finally feel real-time rather than sluggish.
