🇨🇳 Beijing accelerates the development of a gigantic AI infrastructure

China has officially laid out its plans for a massive expansion of computing infrastructure.

According to the new five-year plan of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the country intends to increase its total intelligent computing capacity to 9,800 EFLOPS by 2030. At the same time, China intends to invest around 3.8 trillion yuan in information infrastructure.

The plan calls for the development of a unified national network of computing capacity, the further expansion of 5G/5G-A, and preparations for the commercial rollout of 6G.

At its core, Beijing is not building individual data centers, but a nationwide infrastructure for AI, viewing computing capacity much as previous generations viewed power grids, roads, and railways.
