🌐 Ever heard of a “Digital Valley”? That’s Guizhou in the Chinese mainland, where AI dreams go big! At this week’s provincial data work conference, officials revealed that in 2025 the region smashed through 150 EFLOPS of computing power—almost 3× its 2024 levels.
What’s more, over 90% of this muscle comes from intelligent computing, powering applications from self-driving cars to smart cities. Guizhou now hosts 50 data centers (built or under construction) and a national computing network node featuring 48 service providers.
Behind the scenes? Fixed-asset investments topped ¥22 billion (about $3.14 billion) last year. And the momentum isn’t slowing: for 2026, Guizhou targets 190 EFLOPS by backing new projects and pushing for greener, more efficient data centers.
For context, 1 EFLOPS equals a quintillion (1 × 10^18) floating-point operations per second—including mind-blowing data processing at the speed of thought. 🚀
Sure, numbers like these can sound abstract, but they matter. More computing power means smarter AI, faster insights, and big opportunities for startups, researchers, and gamers alike. Ready to join the Digital Valley hype?
