Joseph Tsai, co-founder and chairman of the board of Alibaba Group, said at the opening ceremony of the 2026 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit that AI can only be inclusive and accessible if it is open-source and open. He said that Chinese tech companies have continued to increase their efforts in open-sourcing models and opening up their ecosystems, maintaining a lead in key indicators such as open-source model downloads and the number of derivative models, and have become the current global leader in open-source intelligence. Open source can lower R&D costs for small and medium-sized enterprises, and its value is especially significant for minority languages and developing countries.
