Baidu and Alibaba, China's two major AI cloud providers, are taking distinct approaches to industrial AI adoption. Baidu focuses on a "value-driven" model, emphasizing practical applications and business outcomes to accelerate AI integration, while Alibaba adopts a "supply-driven" strategy, investing heavily in infrastructure like data centers and AI models with the expectation that demand will follow.
