Alibaba unveiled the Zhenwu M890, an AI chip with three times the performance of its previous model, featuring 144 GB GPU memory and 800 GB/s bandwidth. The chip aims to boost Alibaba and its subsidiary T-Head's position in China's AI processor market against competitors like Nvidia, Huawei, and Cambricon. Alibaba also announced the upcoming release of its next-gen AI model, Qwen3.7-Max, expecting AI-driven revenue to reach $4.42 billion by year-end. Despite advancements, analysts note Alibaba's chip still lags behind Western rivals in some key performance metrics.
