Cerebras Systems CEO and co-founder Andrew Feldman anticipates a future where personal AI appliances become standard in households. He suggests these devices will operate using a hybrid model, performing tasks locally on the device while offloading some processes to the cloud, similar to modern smartphones.

Feldman highlights the development of consumer AI agents, such as Meta’s Muse and the startup Instinct, which currently holds a valuation of $10 billion, as evidence of growing AI integration. He envisions home assistants that maintain a security perimeter while managing sensitive tasks, including financial transactions.

The CEO personally utilizes a suite of AI agents to manage his calendar and research meeting participants. While he focuses on building the hardware infrastructure for these platforms, he leaves the development of specific consumer-facing applications to other founders within the ecosystem.
