However, if 2018 is regarded as the first year of the global cloud AI chip, then in the past two years, the main tone of the market may not be competition and confrontation, but application popularization and growth. In June this year, at the 2020 Alibaba Cloud Online Summit, Alibaba Cloud released products such as the seventh-generation high-frequency cloud server ECS and Hanguang 800 cloud server, which marked the official large-scale commercialization of Alibaba Cloud's self-developed Hanguang chips. .
Recently, Baidu Chief Technology Officer Wang Haifeng revealed that Baidu Kunlun has achieved mass production and application deployment of "Kunlun 1", with a mass production of about 20,000 pieces. And Baidu "Kunlun 2" is expected to be mass-produced b2b data in the first half of 2021, and its performance will be three times higher than that of "Kunlun 1". Over the past two years, Baidu Kunlun has tripled its performance. It is a pity that the present peaceful coexistence is not destined to last for a long time .

If you broaden your horizons, you can even see that the confrontation and competition between Chinese and American Internet giants in the field of cloud AI chips has quietly started.
