Artificial Intelligence (AI) transcends boundaries, benefiting not only #Medicine but also #Engineering, #Sustainable Technology, #Smart City, and beyond. In Hong Kong, the AI Subsidy Scheme (AISS) under Cyberport supports the AI ecosystem by subsidizing eligible users to leverage the computing power of Cyberport’s Artificial Intelligence Supercomputing Centre (AISC). This empowers users to maximize the AISC's computing capabilities, driving breakthroughs in scientific research.
In this mini-symposium, 3 distinguished CUHK researchers will discuss leveraging AI technology for their research endeavours, and Dr. Crystal Fok, Director of AI Applications at Cyberport will introduce AISS platform.
Date: 26 Mar 2025 (Wed)
