Feels like the 90's again where single threaded speed is improving fast. ASICs and wafer scale rather than node shrinks, but end result to me the consumer feels the same.

I wish, but I don’t think this qualifies as single thread performance. Cerebras is whole wafer computation though right? So you get the result sooner, but the same amount of computation has occurred, just with huge parallelism.
