AI overview

She Zongming proposed a judgment, arguing that comparisons of the uses of AI computing power between China and the US such as "US AI boosts productivity, Chinese AI creates bread and circuses" are a false premise. A Beijing News commentary article questioned this comparison: the claim that "55% of China's Tokens are used for AI short dramas" comes from a listed company heavily invested in AI short dramas, while "58% of the US's is used for code" has no authoritative source, and Token usage does not equal where computing power is directed. The article also pointed out that video generation is a high-Token-consumption-density scenario: a 10-minute high-definition AI short drama requires 80 million to 120 million Tokens, while an R&D team of 8 to 10 people uses about 3 million to 5 million Tokens per week; as of March this year, domestic daily average Token calls had exceeded 140 trillion. At present, this judgment is carried by the above-mentioned commentary article, and there are no subsequent developments.

    Is "US AI boosts productivity, Chinese AI creates bread and circuses" a false premise?

    A New Beijing News commentary article questions the comparison that "55% of China's Tokens are used for AI short dramas, while 58% of the US's are used for code": the former figure comes from a listed company heavily invested in AI short dramas, the latter has no authoritative source, and Token usage does not equal computing power allocation. The article points out that video generation is a high-Token-consumption-density scenario: a 10-minute high-definition AI short drama requires 80 million to 120 million Tokens, while an R&D team of 8 to 10 people uses about 3 million to 5 million Tokens per week; as of March this year, domestic daily average Token calls had exceeded 140 trillion.
