英伟达创始人黄仁勋语出惊人:人类历史上最大规模的AI基础设施建设已在进行,现在已经投入了数 千亿美元,还有数万亿美元需要建设。 最新消息显示,特斯拉创始人马斯克也会首次出席达沃斯,可能会与贝莱德CEO等嘉宾展开对话,考虑 他近期在AI尤其芯片领域的激进路线,话题必然还是绕不开AI。 达沃斯,世界经济论坛,AI无疑成为参会企业最热门的话题。 腾讯集团高级执行副总裁汤道生的看法,代表了相当AI全球竞赛里中国"代表队"的思路,他说:"当人 们谈论AI时,可能倾向于把它想象成一个庞大的超级系统,称之为AGI,但实际上,现实中却是多种不 同的模型,服务于不同的场景。" 过去几年,AI被大模型、人形机器人、GPU芯片推着前行,更确切地说,先后被ChatGPT、英伟达、 DeepSeek、宇树科技等大爆品和明星企业抢占了大多数眼球或引导了主流趋势。往更久的历史回溯, 名字还包括"阿尔法狗"、波士顿动力等等。 但区别于前半程,在算法出圈、产品爆红之后,AI竞争正在向算力甚至电力等基础设施的后台演进, AI进入结构和系统性竞赛。 在很多维度,马斯克和黄仁勋的AI世界观并不一致,但对于AI基础设施的预判,二人一个比一个"大刀 阔 ...
