The Rise of AI-Specific Chips: How Cerebras Is Challenging NVIDIA's GPU Dominance The artificial intelligence (AI) industry is experiencing a paradigm shift. NVIDIA, the long-standing leader in AI hardware, recently suffered its largest market value drop ever—$600 billion wiped out almost overnight. The reason? A groundbreaking AI chip that outperforms NVIDIA’s GPUs by an astonishing 57 times in AI performance. At the center of this upheaval is Cerebras Systems , a company that has redefined AI computing with its wafer-scale AI processor , running DeepSeek R1 at unprecedented speeds. This development is not just a technological milestone but a significant moment that could redefine AI infrastructure and corporate power in the industry. The AI Revolution: Enter DeepSeek R1 AI has traditionally been built on generating text, images, and code based on learned patterns. However, DeepSeek R1 , an advanced AI model, is different. Instead of merely predicting the next word in a sen...
