China reveals its cards: openness and investments in energy are the key to AI

First of all, it is necessary energy transformation. China spends the equivalent of approximately USD 90 billion annually on developing its capabilities in this sector. China has become the leader in green energy, and the share of renewable and nuclear energy in the energy mix is ​​constantly growing. China also has its equivalent of the ETS system, but it is not as strict as the version known from the European Union. There is probably no need to explain to anyone how energy-intensive the development of artificial intelligence is.

The second pillar is the commitment to open-source models. Tsai is convinced that the development of artificial intelligence cannot remain just a curiosity for ordinary users. We cannot allow only the largest corporations to have access to its advantages. Open source and low resource consumption (which Deepseek became famous for at the time of its debut) are crucial for the global adoption of AI to benefit the entire world.
