US Treasury Secretary Bement Claims: The US Will Soon Control 80% of Global Computing Power

U.S. Treasury Secretary Ben Sent proclaimed that America is poised to control 80% of the world's computing power, positioning compute dominance as a core pillar of U.S. economic strategy. Speaking on the Mike Rowe show, he stated the U.S. currently holds 50-60% of global compute share, with expectations to reach 80% soon. He framed this as a strategic competition the U.S. "cannot afford to lose," warning that a rival's lead would grant "unacceptable" strategic leverage, while asserting a current one-year AI lead. This high-level policy endorsement is seen as a direct boost for AI infrastructure investment, benefiting chipmakers like NVIDIA and cloud providers' capex cycles. Sent positioned AI compute, semiconductors, and quantum computing as three pillars of national economic strength and security. He defended AI's societal impact, citing historical tech shifts, and argued AI empowers small businesses without causing net job loss so far. He highlighted government efforts to deepen public-private AI cybersecurity cooperation. For investors, the statement signals sustained U.S. policy support for AI infrastructure. However, analysts urge caution, noting "compute share" lacks a standard public metric; the 80% figure is a forecast, not audited data. They recommend focusing on tangible indicators like physical capacity expansion and power infrastructure, with future semiconductor and cloud reports providing key verification data.

WEEX Labs Weekly Observation: The 'Power Restructuring' of AI Infrastructure and the 'Deep Dive Movement' into the Real Economy

WEEX Labs Weekly Review: AI Infrastructure's "Power Restructuring" and the "Deep Dive" into the Real Economy Mid-July 2026 marks a pivotal shift in the global AI industry. The allocation of computing power is transferring from cloud giants to compute resource owners, while the core value of AI is solidifying around its penetration into physical industry, moving beyond the race for model parameters. The era of fragmented model development is over, replaced by a capital-intensive, integrated chain driven by hard tech. Key developments this week include Meta's planned entry into the cloud computing market with "MetaCompute." This move by social media giants with massive GPU clusters challenges traditional cloud providers like AWS, integrating compute, models, and data into one-stop services, which will squeeze smaller rental providers and shift enterprise focus towards underlying model ecosystems. Chinese foundational models like DeepSeek-V4 and Tencent's Hy-3 are pushing towards "utility" status through open-source releases and extreme cost reductions via MoE architectures. This lowers entry barriers for enterprises, allowing them to focus resources on private deployment and deep business integration. Embodied intelligence, particularly humanoid robots, is transitioning from lab demos to real-world factory applications, driven by policies promoting large-scale, practical deployment in logistics and manufacturing. The value focus is shifting from spectacle to stable industrial data and real operational efficiency. Global governance, through forums like WAIC, is evolving from theoretical ethics to practical operational frameworks for "Sovereign AI," raising geopolitical compliance barriers and making auditability and data sovereignty core design requirements from the outset. WEEX Labs Insights: The current transformation shows AI's prosperity is deeply embedding into the fabric of global manufacturing. Strategic recommendations include: 1) leveraging open-source models for private, proprietary knowledge bases; 2) maintaining cloud provider diversity to avoid vendor lock-in from integrated model ecosystems; and 3) seeking opportunities in the "embodied infrastructure" supporting robots, such as data collection, industrial simulation, and factory AI adaptation services.

USD 34 Billion Valuation: Li Yanhong's Biggest IPO, Kunlunxin's Allocation Shares Are in Short Supply

"Kunlun Xin Aims for Landmark $50 Billion IPO, Backed by Baidu" Kunlun Xin, Baidu's AI chip arm, is preparing for a highly anticipated dual listing in Hong Kong and on China's STAR Market. According to reports, the company is targeting a valuation of approximately $50 billion (340 billion RMB), which would surpass Baidu's own market capitalization and represent CEO Robin Li's largest IPO to date. Demand from cornerstone investors is intense, with shares described as "hard to get." The company is reportedly prioritizing strategic investors who commit to purchasing its chips, requiring procurement worth 3 to 7 times their investment amount. Originating from Baidu's internal chip division in 2011, Kunlun Xin was spun off in 2021. It has since attracted a prestigious roster of over 50 investors, including CPE, IDG Capital, China Mobile's fund, and various government-backed funds. Its current flagship product, the P800, rivals Nvidia's A800. Crucially, external customer business now exceeds internal supply to Baidu, with major clients including China Mobile, which awarded a billion-yuan order. For Baidu, an early proponent of "All in AI," Kunlun Xin's success is pivotal. While its large language model, Ernie, faced stiff competition, the AI chip unit is seen as its most valuable underlying asset. A successful IPO would provide a significant valuation boost and mark a critical turnaround in Baidu's AI narrative.

Both OpenAI and Anthropic are 'Developing Their Own Chips' — Beyond Cost, the Control Over Computing Power is Paramount

OpenAI and Anthropic are both advancing plans to develop custom AI chips, driven by the need to control computing power and reduce costs. According to reports, Anthropic is in early-stage development of its own chips and in talks with Samsung for manufacturing, while OpenAI is collaborating with Broadcom and TSMC, aiming to deploy its first inference chip by late 2026. The primary motivation extends beyond just lowering expenses. For these large model companies, chips are core production assets. By designing specialized hardware (ASICs) tailored to their specific model architectures—OpenAI's being more sparse and Anthropic's more dense—they aim to achieve deeper software-hardware co-design. This synergy can significantly improve inference speed, energy efficiency, and overall unit economics, offering advantages that off-the-shelf GPUs cannot. This move does not signify an immediate replacement for suppliers like Nvidia. The process from design to deployment takes 18-24 months, and Nvidia's GPU ecosystem remains deeply entrenched. Instead, custom chips provide a strategic alternative and negotiating leverage, allowing companies to use them for specific, high-volume workloads like inference while still relying on external GPUs and TPUs for other tasks. The trend reflects a broader industry shift where AI competition is evolving from pure algorithmic prowess to integrated control over the entire software-hardware stack. Companies like Google, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are already on this path. For foundries like Samsung, securing orders from AI leaders like Anthropic represents a significant opportunity to expand its footprint in the advanced semiconductor market for AI. Ultimately, the race for "computing sovereignty" is now a central battleground for major AI players.

Zuckerberg Gave the AI Bull Market a Fright

Mark Zuckerberg and Meta inadvertently sent shockwaves through the AI stock market. News that Meta plans to sell its "excess" AI computing power to external clients triggered a trillion-dollar sell-off in AI infrastructure stocks like Nvidia and AMD, while Meta's stock rose. This seemingly simple business move—renting out idle resources—shook a core assumption underpinning the two-year AI bull market: the belief that computing power ("compute") would be perpetually scarce. This scarcity narrative had fueled valuations across the entire supply chain, from GPUs to power suppliers. Meta's motivations are layered: improving hardware utilization during non-peak R&D periods, executing a strategic pivot, and redefining AI infrastructure. Unlike rivals selling APIs, Meta's open-source approach with Llama appears aimed at building an ecosystem where it ultimately profits from the underlying compute, similar to how AWS transformed from Amazon's internal capacity. Meta is essentially offering an integrated "AI factory" service, not just raw GPU rental. The market's fear wasn't Meta selling a few chips, but the signal that GPU supply might become more shareable and efficient, transitioning the industry from a Capex-driven "hoarding" model to an Opex-driven "utilization" model. This could fundamentally reset valuation logic from scarcity to efficiency. While the sell-off reversed somewhat as investors realized this shift is long-term, the direction is set. The move marks a potential inflection point: the era of easy valuation gains from simply buying GPUs may be ending, giving way to an era where operational efficiency and return on AI assets take center stage.

On the Eve of Its U.S. Journey, SK Hynix Plummets Sharply

Just before its highly anticipated U.S. listing, SK Hynix saw its share price plummet dramatically, losing over 14% in a single day. The sell-off was triggered by market fears of a potential slowdown in AI capital expenditure. This followed a news report suggesting Meta might sell "excess AI compute," which was later amended to remove the word "excess." The initial phrasing sparked a chain reaction in investor sentiment, linking it to a potential peak in AI demand. Despite the sharp downturn, the article argues this is likely an overreaction driven by market sentiment and structural de-leveraging, rather than a fundamental reversal of the AI trend. The author points out that even if Meta proceeds, it could be an optimization of existing assets, not a systemic demand contraction. SK Hynix is in the final stages of its U.S. IPO via an ADR listing on Nasdaq, aiming to raise approximately $29.4 billion—one of the largest such offerings ever. The funds are earmarked for expanding domestic Korean production capacity for HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) and advanced packaging. A key motivation for the U.S. listing is to achieve a valuation re-rating, escaping the so-called "Korea discount" and tapping into the higher valuation multiples typically given to AI-related semiconductor stocks in the U.S. market. In conclusion, the article views the current price drop as a potential buying opportunity, suggesting the long-term industry fundamentals for SK Hynix—particularly its leading position in the crucial HBM market—remain strong. The significant capital raised from the IPO is also seen as a factor that could provide underlying support for the stock post-listing.

Tencent Buys Baidu Chips

China's internet giants, once defined by building closed, self-sufficient empires, are undergoing a fundamental shift. A key signal is Baidu's plan to spin off its AI chip unit, Kunlun Xin, for a Hong Kong IPO targeting a $50 billion valuation, potentially exceeding its parent company's worth. Concurrently, Alibaba's T-Head is also pursuing independence. Most significantly, reports indicate that rival Tencent has become a major customer for Kunlun Xin's chips. This move, where competitors begin procuring each other's core technologies, marks a decisive break from the past era of internal duplication and isolation. It signals the maturation of China's AI industry into a more open, specialized ecosystem. The underlying driver is the immense and clear cost of AI infrastructure, particularly the exploding demand for inference compute driven by AI agents and applications. Hardware is no longer just an internal cost center but a profitable, strategic business in itself. Globally, a parallel trend is evident as OpenAI, Google, Amazon, and others develop their own AI chips to control costs and optimize performance. The competition has moved beyond model benchmarks to a deeper, foundational war over token cost efficiency, inference cluster performance, and secure, scalable computing power. Baidu and Alibaba aren't dismantling their empires but are instead decoupling non-core, capital-intensive infrastructure to participate in and shape a larger, collaborative industrial base. The era of the all-encompassing super-app is giving way to an age of strategic specialization and open ecosystem building in the AI race.

Computing Power Crisis: Google Quietly Imposes Usage Caps on Meta for Gemini

Google has quietly imposed usage caps on Meta's access to its Gemini AI models since around March due to surging demand overwhelming its computational infrastructure, according to a Financial Times report. The limits, which remain in place, have disrupted and delayed several of Meta's internal AI projects, forcing the social media giant to ration AI usage and improve efficiency. This reflects a broader industry-wide shortage of AI inference capacity, as companies deploy more chatbots and AI agents. Google CEO Sundar Pichai acknowledged compute constraints are limiting cloud revenue growth. In response, Google recently signed a $920 million monthly compute leasing deal with SpaceX to expand capacity. The restrictions have accelerated Meta's shift toward its own AI models, such as Muse Spark, to reduce dependence on external providers like Google. While other Google clients also face limits, Meta's vast scale made it particularly affected. The situation highlights how the AI infrastructure bottleneck has shifted from model training to inference, requiring massive new capital investments to resolve.

Google Starts Selling TPUs, Big Tech Aims to Produce "Low-Cost Tokens" with AI Chips

Google has begun selling its proprietary TPU chips and AI computing hardware directly to third-party data centers and clients, marking a strategic shift. Previously only accessible via cloud rentals, TPUs are specialized processors designed for the matrix and tensor operations central to AI models. By combining thousands into supercomputing clusters managed by CPUs, Google achieves high-efficiency AI processing. This move enables Google’s Gemini AI to offer competitive token pricing, challenging rivals like OpenAI. It also signals a broader industry trend where AI compute is becoming a commoditized resource like electricity. While NVIDIA remains dominant with its CUDA ecosystem and high-performance GPUs, the focus is shifting from raw power to cost efficiency and system integration. Google’s approach mirrors NVIDIA’s by selling an entire ecosystem—hardware, software, and data center expertise—rather than just chips. This threatens NVIDIA’s grip on the mid-range inference market, where lower-cost, efficient solutions are increasingly demanded. Similarly, cloud providers like Huawei Cloud and Alibaba Cloud in China are developing their own AI chip ecosystems (e.g., Ascend, Zhenwu), packaging chips, clusters, and tools into full-stack solutions. They aim to reduce token costs and capture market share through integrated systems. In summary, the AI infrastructure race is evolving from a competition for the strongest chips to a contest for the most efficient and cost-effective systems. Google’s TPU sales highlight this transition, emphasizing that future success lies in delivering affordable, scalable AI compute as a foundational service.
