techcrunch ·
Cerebras Systems CEO Andrew Feldman will address the limits of AI scaling at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026, challenging conventional chip architectures through wafer-scale computing. He will discuss the increasing demands for compute, energy, and infrastructure as AI models grow more capable. Cerebras recently raised $5.5 billion in its IPO and secured a multiyear agreement with OpenAI to deploy significant capacity from 2026 to 2028. The company is expanding its manufacturing output tenfold and plans to launch its first European data center capacity this year. Feldman’s session aims to explore what happens if current hardware reaches its physical limits and how alternative approaches can sustain growth. The event takes place October 13-15 in San Francisco, featuring over 200 sessions for tech leaders and investors. Attendees are encouraged to register early to secure discounted passes for colleagues or partners.
