The architectures really aren't comparable. The Cerebras WSE has fairly low DRAM bandwidth, but it has a huge amount of on-die SRAM.

They are training models that need terabytes of RAM with only 150GB/sec of memory bandwidth. That is compute bound. If you think it is memory bandwidth bound, please explain the algorithms and how they are memory bandwidth bound.
