Cerebras Systems announced on Tuesday that it’s made Meta Platforms’s Llama perform as well in a small version as it does on a large version by adding the increasingly popular approach in generative artificial intelligence (AI) known as “chain of thought.” The AI computer maker announced the advance at the start of the annual NeurIPS conference on AI.
“This is a closed-source only capability, but we wanted to bring this capability to the most popular ecosystem, which is Llama,” said James Wang, head of Cerebras’s product marketing effort, in an interview with ZDNET.
The project is the latest in a line of open-source projects Cerebras has done to demonstrate the capabilities of its purpose-built AI computer, the “CS-3,” which it sells in competition with the status quo in AI — GPU chips from the customary vendors, Nvidia and AMD.
