On the morning of July 17th, the “Generative AI Innovation Competition” was held in Room 512, Lide Building by School of Information Technology at Renmin University of China (RUC), as part of the 2024 International Summer School. Prof. Zhang Xiao, vice dean of School of Information at RUC, attended and delivered the opening speech, while Prof. Minder Chen from California State University Channel Islands, and Associate Prof. Yang Bo from School of Information at RUC attended and acted as judges of the competition.
Zhang Xiao said in his speech that innovation is the core driving force for development in start-ups, and generative AI is exactly the growth point for future enterprises to break through the boundaries. The main purpose of this event is to provide a platform for student teams to showcase creative models combining generative AI technology with viable business models so that students can lay the foundation for the future in-depth development and implementation of innovative ideas through exchanges with experts and each other.
