[Huawei: Ascend has crossed the ecological inflection point and has the ability and opportunity to build a new AI ecosystem] On September 19, Zhu Zhaosheng, director of Huawei’s Computing Strategy and Business Development Department, said that Ascend has crossed the ecological inflection point and is fully capable and has the opportunity to build a new AI ecosystem in the Agentic era. From a community perspective, the Shengteng CANN open source community has an average monthly active user count of more than 5,200. Since June this year, it has become the most active open source community in China. The number of non-Huawei developers in the community exceeds the number of Huawei developers. Currently, the average daily number of new integrated codes exceeds 30,000 lines. At the model level, more than 40 large language models and multi-modal models have been pre-trained based on Ascend, making Ascend the only AI computing platform in China that supports pre-training. At the ecological level, in addition to its own open source CANN, Shengteng has been connected to mainstream open source frameworks such as PyTorch. (21st Century Business Herald)
