Alibaba Cloud Sees Sustained AI-Driven Growth Post-Spring Festival

Earnings Call
15 May

- After the Spring Festival, Alibaba saw a surge in new customer demand, especially for inference workloads and inference-based scenarios.
- The large-scale adoption of AI is expected to continue in the coming months, not just in February and March after Spring Festival, but through April and May as well.
- The current surge in demand growth is closer to what can be expected as the regular pace of growth going forward.
- Smaller AI models (around 3 billion parameters or less) are suitable for edge applications on mobile phones, toys, and smart devices, with limited impact on cloud business.
- Larger models (32 billion parameters or higher) are better run in the cloud for elasticity and better pricing, driving cloud usage.
- Edge models and cloud-based large parameter models are seen as complementary, working well together as a business model.
