Chinese artificial intelligence start-up Zhipu AI, marketed internationally as Z.ai, has seen the number of paid users overseas increase tenfold over the past two months, the head of its global operations said, in a sign of the growing appeal of Chinese AI services among global users<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Beijing-based company now has around 100,000 monthly API \u2013 or application programming interface \u2013 users, as well as 3 million free chatbot users overseas, following the launch of its flagship GLM-4.6 model, Li Zixuan said in an interview on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to grow in every market because growth overseas is exceeding growth domestically,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Launched in late September, GLM-4.6 was billed as the world\u2019s most powerful open model for coding and was quickly integrated into popular AI coding tools such as Anthropic-backed Claude Code.<\/p>\n

The model was a \u201cgame-changer\u201d for Zhipu\u2019s global business, said Li.<\/p>\n

According to Kilo Code<\/a>, another coding tool, GLM-4.6 saw the platform\u2019s fastest adoption ever due to its low cost compared with US counterparts, as token usage for the \u201cgood enough\u201d model increased 94 times in 12 days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chinese artificial intelligence start-up Zhipu AI, marketed internationally as Z.ai, has seen the number of paid users overseas…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":161666,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[261],"tags":[291,289,290,2786,79,381,179,18,4202,19,17,3521,5,2336,19453,119,82,107,65],"class_list":{"0":"post-161665","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-artificialintelligence","11":"tag-asia","12":"tag-business","13":"tag-china","14":"tag-economy","15":"tag-eire","16":"tag-hong-kong","17":"tag-ie","18":"tag-ireland","19":"tag-lifestyle","20":"tag-news","21":"tag-opinion","22":"tag-south-china-morning-post","23":"tag-sport","24":"tag-technology","25":"tag-us","26":"tag-world"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/115489462194275243","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/161665","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=161665"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/161665\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/161666"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=161665"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=161665"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=161665"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
