Xiaomi Luo Fuli predicts that this year's token growth could reach 100 times

On the morning of March 27, at the 2026 Zhongguancun Forum Annual Conference “Artificial Intelligence Themed Day” AI Open-Source Frontier Forum, Xiaomi’s MiMo large-model负责人罗福莉 said, “The longer-term thing is that, because large models are advancing rapidly by themselves, and because we have better support from an agent framework, we can see our reasoning demands. I believe that this year, what has already happened is that over the past period of time, there has already been close to a 10x increase. So this year, will the growth of total tokens reach 100x? So in fact we’ve entered another dimension of competition; that competition is compute power—or, in other words, inference chips, and even down to energy.” (Sina Finance)
