July 19th - Currently, with the deepening application of AI intelligent agents across various industries, the usage of tokens has maintained a rapid growth trend. How to further reduce computing power costs has become a key focus for all parties. Industry insiders explained that they are using computing power platforms to coordinate the use of multiple mainstream large-scale models, comprehensively reducing token costs. Simultaneously, they are accelerating the construction of large-scale computing power clusters nationwide. Ultra-large-scale computing power clusters supported by domestically produced computing power chips are seen by the industry as the key to further cost reduction. Furthermore, the implementation of more cutting-edge technologies such as optical chips in the next three to five years is also expected to become another direction for exploring ways to reduce computing power costs. "Compared to electrical chips, the core advantage of optoelectronic chips lies in their lower computational latency and lower power consumption.
