BEIJING — Amid the global race to build artificial general intelligence, the development of stronger computing power has become a major focal point of China’s strategic initiatives, driven by the needs of a booming digital economy and innovations in large language models.
Data revealed at the Global Digital Economy Conference 2024, which closed on Friday in Beijing, showed that by the end of last year, the total number of standard racks in use at data centers nationwide had exceeded 8.1 million in China, with a total computing power of 230 Eflops. Eflops is a measurement unit used to determine a computer’s speed. A 1 Eflops computing system can complete 1 quintillion floating-point operations per second.
