Mr Wang on the other hand, shared that by utilising A.I. in the teaching and learning process, teachers are able to lessen the burden on teaching while students are able to achieve desire learning outcome and uplift their confidence and interest in learning.
Ms Zhang contributed her insight into how A.I. could identify for students the best education path and to equip them as the talents for the modern society.
Mr Yu further extended the topic of A.I. education by discussing the A.I. for social good in future education, and the human awareness is considered to be the source in promoting this objective.
The sharing by the four speakers made up a wonderful evening and solicited many in-depth discussions and exchange of ideas with the participants. A.I. with no doubt will bring a brand new page on human development, and the education empowered by A.I. will inevitably open up a new paradigm for future education.
