Meta is partnering with Cerebras to enhance AI inference speeds within Meta's new Llama API. This collaboration combines Meta's open-source Llama models with Cerebras' specialized inference technology, aiming to provide developers with significantly faster performance. According to Cerebras, developers building on the Llama 4 Cerebras model within the API can expect speeds up to 18 times quicker than traditional GPU-based solutions. This acceleration is expected to unlock new possibilities for building real-time and agentic AI applications, making complex tasks like low-latency voice interaction, interactive code generation, and real-time reasoning more feasible.
This partnership allows Cerebras to expand its reach to a broader developer audience, strengthening its existing relationship with Meta. Since launching its inference solutions in 2024, Cerebras has emphasized its ability to deliver rapid Llama inference, serving billions of tokens through its AI infrastructure. Andrew Feldman, CEO and co-founder of Cerebras, stated that the company is proud to make Llama API the fastest inference API available, empowering developers to create AI systems previously unattainable with GPU-based inference clouds. Independent benchmarks by Artificial Analysis support this claim, indicating that Cerebras achieves significantly higher token processing speeds compared to platforms like ChatGPT and DeepSeek.
Developers will have direct access to the enhanced Llama 4 inference by selecting Cerebras within the Llama API. Meta also continues to innovate with its AI app, testing new features such as "Reasoning" mode and "Voice Personalization," designed to enhance user interaction. The “Reasoning” feature could potentially offer more transparent explanations for the AI’s responses, while voice settings like "Focus on my voice" and "Welcome message" could offer more personalized audio interactions, especially relevant for Meta's hardware ambitions in areas such as smart glasses and augmented reality devices.
