Meeting the AI industry’s demand “requires super-scale infrastructure and full-stack technology accumulation”, Wu told the audience at Friday’s opening of the 2025 World Internet Conference, an annual industry gathering in the town of Wuzhen in eastern Zhejiang province. The event will run through Sunday.
Wu, also chairman of the company’s AI and cloud services unit Alibaba Cloud, said the group’s envisioned “super AI cloud” infrastructure would be “capable of supporting” such demand. Alibaba owns the South China Morning Post.
Echoing his speech at Alibaba Cloud’s Apsara Conference in September, Wu told the Wuzhen conference that the world was moving towards artificial general intelligence (AGI) and that would eventually lead the industry to artificial superintelligence (ASI).
