Core Viewpoint - IBM's CEO Arvind Krishna questions the expected returns on the massive investments made by tech giants like Google and Amazon in AI infrastructure, suggesting that such investments are unlikely to yield reasonable returns due to the high costs associated with data centers [2][3]. Investment and Costs - Goldman Sachs estimates that the global data center market currently consumes about 55 gigawatts of power, with only approximately 14% related to AI. This demand is projected to rise to 84 gigawatts by 2027 due to increasing AI needs [2]. - Krishna calculates that building a 1-gigawatt data center requires an investment of about $80 billion. If a company commits to constructing 20 to 30 gigawatts of data centers, the capital expenditure could reach $1.5 trillion, nearly equivalent to Tesla's current market value [2]. - If all major cloud providers expand to around 100 gigawatts of capacity, it would necessitate an investment of approximately $8 trillion, with the required profit scale to cover this expenditure being staggering [2][3]. Profitability Concerns - Krishna emphasizes that $8 trillion in capital expenditure would require around $800 billion in profits just to cover interest payments, making it highly unlikely for such investments to be profitable [3]. - The rapid technological advancements mean that the chips relied upon in data centers quickly become obsolete, further complicating the return on investment [3]. AI Development and Market Trends - Despite the ongoing investment surge, Krishna believes the probability of achieving general artificial intelligence with current technologies is at most 1%. He acknowledges the significant value of this technology, which could unlock trillions of dollars in productivity potential, but asserts that the technological requirements far exceed those of current large language models [5]. - Major cloud providers are accelerating their investments in AI infrastructure, with expected expenditures reaching about $380 billion this year. Alphabet has raised its 2025 capital expenditure forecast from $85 billion to between $91 billion and $93 billion, while Amazon has increased its forecast from $118 billion to $125 billion [5].

如果您希望可以时常见面，欢迎标星收藏哦~ 谷歌的 TPU 在被外部采用后，成为了人工智能领域的头条新闻；然而，这其中存在一个可能成为重大制约因素的方面。 在当今人工智能计算领域，人们对专用集成电路（ASIC）的兴趣空前高涨，这主要是因为人们普遍认为，在人工智能应用的下一阶段——推理阶 段，像谷歌的TPU这样的芯片将凭借更低的总体拥有成本和更优异的性能占据主导地位。随着谷歌第七代Ironwood TPU的推出，Meta和Anthropic 等公司纷纷表示有兴趣将ASIC集成到他们的工作负载中，TPU被外部采用的趋势也愈发明显。然而，如果谷歌想要进军基础设施市场，供应链的 限制将构成巨大的挑战。 据《中国时报》报道，谷歌的TPU芯片产量可能无法达到市场预期，主要原因是该公司难以从台积电等供应商处获得先进的封装材料，而这对于成 功量产至关重要。诸如CoWoS之类的技术是芯片制造商大幅提升芯片性能的一种途径。以TPUv7为例，谷歌采用了MCM（多芯片模块）设计，可 以将多个芯片集成到一个统一的封装中。 TPUv7 并非采用大型单芯片，而是将多个硅芯片集成在硅中介层上，并通过微凸点阵列连接各个芯片组。这最终实现了可扩展 ...

尽管中国互联网企业近年来在全球范围内迅速扩张，但除个别 平台外，大多数中国企业在法国市场所占的份额和影响力仍然 相对有限，因此美国互联网巨头成为当前法国数字服务税政策 最主要的针对对象。 作者：杜涛 封图：图虫创意 法国政府显然看到了开征数字服务税的成效，近期对该税种的税率与征税范围进行了调整。 2025年11月底，法国国民议会通过2026年预算案修正案，宣布对数字服务税进行重大调整：将 针对大型数字科技企业的税率从现行3%提升至6%，同时将全球年营业额征税门槛从7.5亿欧元提 高至20亿欧元。 这是法国自2019开始征收数字服务税后的首次调整，该税种也为法国财政带来了持续增收的机 会。 中华人民共和国驻法兰西共和国大使馆网站信息显示，综合法媒2023年10月9日报道，2022年， 法国数字服务税收入为6.2亿欧元，2023年将达7亿欧元，2024年预计增至8亿欧元，2025年将 突破10欧元大关。 山东大学税务研究中心主任李华对经济观察报表示，法国调整数字税是数字经济时代"单边税收措 施"与"多边规则改革"碰撞的典型案例。其核心目标是解决税收不公、维护本土利益，直接冲击美 国科技巨头，同时对OECD（经济贸 ...
