The Cerebras chip: link here.
Comment before we get started: chip design, chip manufacturing is moving at warp speed.
LDCs are being built at record speed.
Now, with regard to chips (for LDCs) we have Cerebrus -- see below -- another chipmaker for LCDs. Of all the chip makers that seem to have household names, Intel seems to be the company that has a one-trick pony, and, oh by the way, the company is having trouble getting that chip made.
At one time, the race to get these chips to market was very, very important. Now so much any more. What changed?
Two things. First, the buildout of LDCs has slowed a bit due to NIMBY concerns. Second, the buildout of LDCs has slowed a bit due to cash flow issues. Third, the buildout of LDCs has slowed a bit due to energy issues. All of a sudden the race for LDCs is not so critical.
What's important now is the best chip out there. And that's where Cerebrus comes in. If what the company and the analysts say is true about the Cerebrus chip, then folks are going to slow down and wait for the best chip. And right now that appears to Cerebrus. We address this later below. Which chipmaker is most at risk with regard to Cerebras?

Cerebras
Query: Cerebras chips: what companies are lined up to buy chips from Cerebus? Are these chips for personal computers or for LDCs, the cloud, similar?
Reply:
Cerebras is a chip company.
Query:
The Cerebras chip has CPU, GPU, and HBM on the same chip. Is that accurate?
Reply:
Movers and shakers got in for $185.
Opened at $350.
Already trading at $385.
This is huge.
It will help solve the GPU / CPU / memory chokepoint. Puts memory on the chip. But it's a ten-year story.
Who gets hurt the most? INTC.
A chatbot agrees.
This is going to hasten more IPOs.
Everyone wants a piece of Elon Musk.
