They do offer API services to individual users... though with a set of models that makes it unlikely that you want to use it. They are promising Qwen 3.8 27B any day now though*.
replyif you have the money as an "individual user" to purchase one of their racks... save your money and retire.
* Actually they sent out an email claiming they already have it, but I don't seem to have access, they're promising to release it to the "shared tier" any day now.
not only that, but I was so happy with their GLM 4.8 that they got rid of yesterday :(
replyWhat do they do with old ones? Their hardware physically can't run other models right?
replyThe Cerebras hardware is not locked to specific models / model families. Taalas is the company that's etching models into their silicon, locking it to that model forever.
reply> save your money and retire.
replyNow that this hypothetical person has retired, what are they gonna do all day? Just sit on the beach and drink Mai Tais? If that's what they wanna do, sure, but nerds gonna nerd, and if I had that kind of money to retire on, I'd totally buy some ridiculously expensive AI box for fun.
Ah but if you have the kind of money where this is a reasonable retirement hobby purchase, you aren't bothered by representing yourself as a "enterprise" :P
replyI’ll get that 250kW home power service dropped in next week!
replyFor now you can rig an adapter to your nearest DC EV charging station, but make sure it's near a body of water for the cooling.
replyneeds an sla that says power will never ever ever go out or else you will have a useless shattered plate of silicon.
replyHuh, why would it shatter if the power goes out?
replyI'd like to see a consumer version too, I don't need a whole rack of them. I probably can't even afford one gpu-sized one
