After Volcano Engine set off a “price war” for the big model and Alibaba Cloud announced that it would “break through” the base price of the global big model, Baidu once again announced today that the two main models of the Wenxin Big Model are completely free, taking the big model price war to a new level. In response, Fu Sheng, chairman and CEO of Cheetah Mobile and chairman of Orion Starry Sky, commented, “In the short term, the performance of the big model has hit a bottleneck. No one can beat anyone, no one can come up with a killer weapon, reduce the cost of reasoning, and reduce the selling price has become a high priority task for everyone now.” Fu Sheng pointed out, “This big price cut basically means that big model startups must find a new business model. The worst drop is all big companies with cloud services. They use big models to get cloud customers. The wool comes from pigs, and they can afford it. Big model startups don't have this kind of ecosystem; they have to look for a different business model.” (Sina Technology)
