Spark is the 'same model and harness' but on Cerebras.
Your intuition may be deceiving you, maybe assuming it's a speed/quality trade-off, it's not.
It's just faster hardware.
No IQ tradeoff.
If you toy around with Cerebras directly, you get a feel for it.
Edit: see note below, I'm wrong. Not same model.
