Small teams don't need an AI tool for every job title. They need one plan that covers all of them. The Alibaba Cloud Token Plan consolidates text, image, video, and audio into a single credit pool, all-in-one access to Qwen and industry-leading third-party models, the latest tools and expert support when you need it. Simplify your AI spend, starting at $4 for the first month: #AlibabaCloud# #TokenPlan# #AI# #Qwen# #HappyHorse# #Wan# #DeepSeek# #GLM# #CloudAI# #AIAdoption# #AIProductivity#

Last Friday, together with @e27co, we hosted an exclusive roundtable with founders and senior leaders to discuss how businesses can move from #AI# experimentation to real-world deployment. The discussion was energetic and highly practical, with participants sharing real use cases, deployment challenges, and solution approaches across industries, from SME operators to enterprise teams. One message came through clearly: AI is moving beyond experimentation into execution, integration, and measurable business impact. A few key takeaways stood out: 🤖 AI adoption is gaining traction across customer service, coding, sales, productivity, robotics, IoT, and agentic AI. 🎯 Scaling AI still requires companies to address cost, infrastructure complexity, trust, regulation, data privacy, and internal readiness. 🚀 The fastest-moving companies are shortening planning cycles, launching practical solutions earlier, testing in real-world environments, and iterating quickly. At Bitdeer AI, we believe scalable AI infrastructure is essential to helping businesses turn AI ideas into production-ready outcomes. As our commitment is to eliminate infrastructure complexity and cost barriers, enabling teams to build, deploy, and scale AI with speed and confidence. Thank you to e27 and all participants for the insightful discussion. #AIAdoption# #necloud# #AIInfrastructure# #AI#

AI is reshaping how software gets planned, built, and run. But what does that actually mean for engineering and product organizations? Hear from Mike Cannon-Brookes (CEO & Co-Founder, Atlassian), Guillermo Rauch (CEO, Vercel), leaders from Lovable Dropbox, 1Password, and more on September 22 for State of AI SDLC, a digital summit for engineering and product leaders. Together, they'll unpack how organizations need to adapt for the AI era. Across six sessions, you'll: • Hear directly from CEOs and industry leaders as they reveal how AI is transforming the modern software development lifecycle. • Get practical strategies for driving meaningful AI adoption across engineering and product teams. • Learn proven frameworks to measure AI impact, boost productivity, and improve token efficiency. Spots are limited, and the event is quickly approaching, so sign up soon! Thanks to the Atlassian team for partnering with me on this post.

AI innovation moves fastest when trust is built in. 🙂‍↕️ At the WSJ Tech Council Summit 2026, HPE's Trish Damkroger shared why sovereign AI helps organizations accelerate AI adoption while staying secure and in control.

AI is global. The next phase of AI adoption will be shaped by local infrastructure, local expertise, and strong ecosystem partnerships. Today, we're introducing the Sovereign Partner Program (ZSP) , a strategic program for partners looking to bring GLM to their countries and build local AI capabilities with ZSP partners will work directly with our teams across: → Early access to upcoming GLM model releases → FDE support and joint engineering → Joint go-to-market and enterprise engagement → Local token business development → Joint launches and market activation Our goal is simple: enable partners to deploy GLM on infrastructure they operate, serve customers locally, and build long-term AI capabilities in their countries. We're now selecting the first cohort of ZSP launch partners. Apply → #ZSP# #GLM# #SovereignAI# #EnterpriseAI# #AIInfrastructure#

AI adoption is spreading far beyond tech: 80.6% of US technology and media businesses now have paid AI subscriptions, the highest percentage on record. Finance and insurance companies follow at 73.1%, up from ~60.0% in December 2025. Meanwhile, 60.4% of US manufacturing firms are paying for AI subscriptions, their highest proportion on record and the 3rd-highest among major sectors. This percentage has nearly doubled since the start of 2025. Over the same period, the proportion of retail companies paying for AI subscriptions has risen +20 percentage points, to a record 49%. Non-tech firms are now quickly adopting AI.
