AI Development Spurs Competition in Computing Power

At the 2026 Zhongguancun Forum's AI Open Source Frontier Forum, Xiaomi's MiMo model leader, Luo Fuli, discussed the rapid advancements in large models. According to Odaily, Luo highlighted that due to the swift progress of large models and the support of improved agent frameworks, there is a significant increase in inference demands. Luo noted that this year has already seen nearly a tenfold growth in certain areas. The question remains whether the growth in tokens will reach a hundredfold this year, leading to a new dimension of competition focused on computing power, inference chips, and even energy.
