[Global AI Demand Surge Drives Product Price Increases, Institutions Predict Further Growth in Computing Power Demand] The global surge in AI demand and the rise in token invocation volumes have prompted price increases for certain products from Alibaba Cloud, Baidu Intelligent Cloud, and others. According to comprehensive research reports, although the large-scale commercialization of AI applications currently lacks sufficient visibility, most reports predict that in the next 3 to 6 months, the intensive rollout of inference-side AI applications, combined with the continuous iteration of training-side models, will further drive the demand for computing power upward.
