Programme at a Glance

Keynote Speech:
AI for Sustainable Development and Sustainable Cities

    The rapid development and widespread use of advanced geospatial technologies such as GPS, remote sensing, mobile sensing, and location-aware devices in recent years have greatly facilitated the acquisition of enormous amounts of high-resolution space-time data. Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods have rapidly been developed to utilize these data for sustainability research. To build smart and healthy cities, we need to integrate these multi-source geospatial big data acquired by earth observation technologies and AI to provide more accurate assessments of individual exposures to environmental or social risk factors, and to develop planning policies to improve health for all. Drawing upon her recent projects on individual exposures to green/blue spaces, light-at-night, and air and noise pollution, she explores how AI is used for the analysis of high-resolution space-time data and provide new insights into building smart and sustainable cities. Implications for education and curriculum development will also be discussed.

Panel Discussion (I):
Ethics of AI in Education and Research

    Amid the rapid rise of AI, educational and research institutions across the world have actively integrated AI into teaching and research, bringing evolutionary changes to the traditional ways of teaching and research. The CUHK Jockey Club AI for the Future Project brings together internationally renowned AI scholars and technology industry experts to analyze the latest developments and prospects of AI in the realm of education and research and explore the ethical issues involved, thereby arousing public concern about the ethics of AI.

Panel Discussion (II):
AI for Learning and Teaching (in Cantonese)

    AI is permeating all aspects of our everyday life. It is no longer confined to the field of research or higher education. Introducing AI education into pre-university education has become a global education trend. The CUHK Jockey Club AI for the Future Project brings together local technology educators and experts to discuss how teachers in local primary and secondary schools should cope with the opportunities and challenges brought to teaching and learning by the advent of AI and promote the popularisation of AI education.
