Diamandis: video generation may be ~70% of China's AI token consumption
PeterDiamandis · x · 2026-09-04
Peter Diamandis contrasts US and China AI strategies: America remains centered on LLMs, coding, agents, and enterprise software, while China is rapidly scaling AI video and connecting video models to robotics, autonomous driving, and "world model" research.
One estimate suggests video generation already accounts for roughly 70% of China's AI token consumption—hinting at two diverging technical bets: language intelligence vs. visual world modeling.
