Dr. Lisa Su and Andrew Feldman announce a strategic partnership between AMD and Cerebras to deliver high-performance AI inference solutions.
Dr. Lisa Su, Chair and CEO of AMD, and Andrew Feldman, CEO of Cerebras, have forged a technical partnership to combine AMD Helios rackscale systems with the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine. The collaboration aims to provide a disaggregated AI inference solution that balances ultra-low latency with high throughput. By integrating these two technologies, the companies expect to deliver up to five times higher tokens per second per watt than competing systems. The partnership was highlighted during the Advancing AI conference in San Francisco, where the administration announced that Cerebras chips will be used in AMD's Helios systems starting in the second half of 2026. The joint solution is designed to meet the demands of advanced AI applications, such as robotics and scientific discovery, where fast response times are critical. This move positions AMD to compete more aggressively against industry leader Nvidia by offering a differentiated platform for high-performance data center workloads.
