How? Divide a key point: directly to technology, to funds, to services.
Technology: Alibaba Cloud is one of the earliest technology companies in China to lay out large models, and it is also one of the few institutions in the world with experience in the research and development of large models with more than one trillion parameters, with the strongest intelligent computing power reserves in China, and the self-developed "cloud computing + AI" base, if these capabilities can be fully opened and provided to enterprises and developers, it will be an important opportunity;
Give money: the most tangible support. Will Alibaba Cloud invest in big-model startups in the future?
Service: Alibaba Cloud has been advocating the concept of "model as a service" since last year, providing cloud services around the whole life cycle of AI models from training, inference, fine-tuning to industrialization. Lingji model service platform, so that all large models can be conveniently migrated to the cloud, all models connected to the Lingji platform can automatically obtain powerful resource capabilities, at present, Lingji has hosted industry-leading big language models including Tongyi Qianwen, ChatGLM-v2, Baichuan, Jiang Ziya, Dolly, etc.
At the same time, Alibaba Cloud also released the first large model invocation tool in China at the conference, magic GPT, AI painting large model universal meaning. It can be said that Alibaba Cloud's strategy of expanding the model ecology has gone fast and steady. The pattern is big enough, the ambition is strong enough, wait and see!
