According to a research report released by CITIC Construction Investment Securities, Amazon has recently implemented a 15% price increase for its AI computing power service, specifically the EC2 Machine Learning Capacity Blocks. This move marks a significant departure from the longstanding industry norm where cloud service prices have predominantly seen reductions rather than increases, underscoring the current scarcity of computing power resources. Data sourced from Hugging Face, the world's largest AI open-source community, reveals that the download count for Alibaba's Qianwen open-source model has surpassed 1 billion, setting a new global benchmark as the first open-source large model to reach this impressive milestone. In light of these developments, CITIC Construction Investment advises investors to closely monitor cloud computing service providers that may potentially follow Amazon's lead in raising prices. Furthermore, the firm continues to strongly recommend investments in the AI computing power sector and AI applications, citing their promising growth prospects.
