阿里雲視覺推理AI模型降價高達85%

該公告於 2024 年最後一天發布，標誌著阿里雲今年第三次下調人工智慧價格，此前 TikTok 母公司字節跳動也採取了類似舉措

Alibaba Cloud, the cloud computing arm of Alibaba Group Holding, has slashed prices for its visual reasoning artificial intelligence (AI) model by up to 85 per cent in the latest move to woo users in a crowded market.

阿里巴巴集團旗下的雲端運算部門阿里雲已將其視覺推理人工智慧 (AI) 模型的價格下調了高達 85%，以在擁擠的市場中吸引用戶。

The announcement, made on the last day of 2024, marks the third AI price cut by Alibaba Cloud this year and comes on the heels of a similar move by TikTok parent ByteDance.

這項公告是在 2024 年最後一天發布的，標誌著阿里雲今年第三次下調人工智慧價格，此前 TikTok 母公司位元組跳動也採取了類似舉措。

The cost for using Qwen-vl-max, Alibaba Cloud’s most advanced visual model, will be cut to 0.003 yuan (US$0.00041) per thousand input token uses, according to the new pricing.

根據新定價，阿里雲最先進的視覺模型 Qwen-vl-max 的使用成本將降至每千次輸入代幣使用 0.003 元（0.00041 美元）。

The adjustment will position Qwen-vl-max as a direct competitor to a similar visual model that ByteDance launched in the middle of the month in terms of cost, underscoring the intense rivalry in China’s AI market.

這項調整將使Qwen-vl-max在成本方面成為字節跳動本月中旬推出的類似視覺模型的直接競爭對手，凸顯出中國人工智慧市場的激烈競爭。

ByteDance introduced a new model with “visual understanding” capabilities at a corporate event earlier this month. The pricing level of 0.003 yuan per thousand token users was 85 per cent lower than the industry average, Tan Dai, president of ByteDance’s Volcano Engine cloud unit, said at the time.

位元組跳動在本月初的一次企業活動中推出了具有“視覺理解”功能的新模型。位元組跳動火山引擎雲部門總裁譚岱當時表示，每千代幣用戶 0.003 元的定價水準比業界平均低 85%。
