At the World AI Conference in Shanghai, SenseTime unveiled its latest AI model, SenseNova 5.5, which rivals OpenAI's GPT-4o in capabilities. SenseTime is enticing users with 50 million free tokens and free migration services from OpenAI, which has blocked its tools in China starting July 9. This move, driven by rising US-China tensions and semiconductor export restrictions, has created opportunities for Chinese AI firms like Baidu, Zhipu AI, and Tencent Cloud, all offering free tokens and migration services. While OpenAI's exit may initially disrupt China's AI market, it could accelerate the growth and testing of domestic AI models. Chinese commentators view this as a push for technological self-reliance, despite challenges like chip shortages affecting companies like Kuaishou.
