Alibaba may start charging for use of latest AI model<body><p>STORY: :: Stephen Nellis, Technology Correspondent</p><p>So why might Alibaba, the Chinese tech giant that's taken the world by storm, by offering a free download of its cutting edge AI, want to start charging money just like its rivals in the United States? </p><p>:: San Francisco, California / August 6, 2026</p><p>Like all major AI companies, Alibaba spends a ton of money training and developing its AI models. So like all companies, Alibaba wants to recoup some of that cost. Now they've always charged money if you want to buy it directly from Ali Cloud, but if you wanted to run it in your own data center, you could do that without necessarily paying Alibaba. That might change as soon as next week. </p><p>The U.S. labs are largely what's called closed source. That means you can only really access their models by going directly to them and paying them to get it from their data centers. Now, companies like Alibaba offer it on that basis too, but you can also download the model and run it in your own data center without necessarily having to pay them. That is changing. A few weeks ago, Moonshot, the creator of the Kimi K3 model, put out a model that you can run in your own data center. But if you make more than $20 million a year, you need to work at a commercial agreement with them that we understand from our sources involves sharing quite a bit of your revenue. We understand from those same sources that Alibaba is poised to do the same thing as soon as next week. </p><p>One of the questions this raises is whether this new strategy from the Chinese AI companies is trouble for U.S. companies like OpenAI. In the short term, probably so. These Chinese companies have been able to offer extremely competitive technology in terms of what the models can do at a much lower price, sometimes at about a third of the price of US models. However, these models are still very expensive to operate. So over the long term, most of the sources in the AI community think that these prices will start to come closer together and it'll be a much more vigorous competition between the two countries and the labs in each. </p></body>
