Chinese models are the most popular AI models by token volume
Source amp-scmp-com.cdn.ampproject.orgThe adoption of Chinese AI models continues unabated:
As of Tuesday, DeepSeek-V4-Flash was the most-used model in terms of token volume, while Chinese models dominated the top five, including Step 3.7 Flash from StepFun, GLM-5.2 from Zhipu, or Z.ai, and DeepSeek-V4-Flash’s updated 0731 version, which ranked second, fourth and fifth, respectively. The third spot was taken by OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Luna, Vercel data showed.
The figures indicate that developers are increasingly choosing cheaper and open models for production workloads, particularly for autonomous agents that can consume large numbers of tokens for reasoning, writing code and calling software tools.
