Token中文名定了！詞元

In March 2026, the National Data Administration officially designated the AI term “Token” as Ciyuan in Chinese. As of March 2026, China’s average daily Ciyuan (token) usage exceeded 140 trillion, representing a thousand-fold increase from the 100 billion recorded in early 2024, and an increase of over 40% in three months compared to the 100 trillion figure at the end of 2025. This milestone signals that China’s AI industry has moved beyond technological exploration and entered a new phase of large-scale commercial application.

A Ciyuan (token) is the smallest unit of information processed by large AI models and has become a key metric for measuring industrial value in the intelligent era. The explosive growth in Ciyuan usage stems from the deepening expansion of AI applications — from general-purpose dialogue to specialized vertical scenarios, with consumption rising significantly in complex tasks such as intelligent agents and industry-specific solutions.

2026年3月，國(guó)家數(shù)據(jù)局正式將AI領(lǐng)域的Token定名為詞元。截至2026年3月，我國(guó)日均詞元調(diào)用量已超140萬(wàn)億，較2024年初的1000億增長(zhǎng)超千倍，較2025年底的100萬(wàn)億三個(gè)月環(huán)比增長(zhǎng)40%以上。這一數(shù)據(jù)標(biāo)志著我國(guó)人工智能產(chǎn)業(yè)從技術(shù)探索邁入規(guī)?；逃眯码A段。

詞元是AI大模型處理信息的最小信息單元，已成為衡量智能時(shí)代產(chǎn)業(yè)價(jià)值的關(guān)鍵標(biāo)尺。其爆發(fā)式增長(zhǎng)，源于AI應(yīng)用從通用對(duì)話向垂直場(chǎng)景深度拓展，在智能體、行業(yè)解決方案等復(fù)雜任務(wù)中的消耗量顯著提升。
