Abstract:

As AI continues to shape various aspects of our lives, it is crucial to move beyond the buzz and uncover the realities and misconceptions surrounding AI. In this sharing, we will begin by exploring thought-provoking questions, such as: Does AI function because it has human-like understanding? Has the AI era depicted in fiction movies already arrived or is it approaching in the near future? What is the age of the AI field? Moving forward, we will distinguish AI from related fields like machine learning and deep learning, while also clarifying popular terms such as big data, GPU, and neural networks within the context of AI. Next, we will dispel misconceptions surrounding ChatGPT. The range of ChatGPT's capabilities and practical tips for using ChatGPT effectively will be addressed. Lastly, we will explore the implications of AI on future careers. Questions such as whether AI will replace humans and considerations for individuals aspiring for an AI career will be discussed.

 

Biography:

Dr. Xing Xing (Symphony) is a Research Assistant Professor in Stanley Ho Big Data Decision Analytics Research Centre, CUHK. Symphony is among the few researchers sharing the same interdisciplinary background as the important pioneers in AI: she became interested in demystifying human brain to attain Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) during her BEng in Computer Science in 2010, prior to the major AI breakout. Then she purposefully pursued a MSc in Computer Science, a MPhil & a PhD in Cognitive Science at HKU. After graduation in 2020, she worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow in HKU and CUHK. In 2023, Symphony had the privilege to contribute significantly in drafting the Module on Artificial Intelligence for Junior Secondary Level for the Education Bureau (EDB) of HK. Currently, she is the main speaker of the teacher education programme of EDB on this module. She is also a 10-year expert in Virtual Reality (VR) as well as a member of Mensa and Shenghan high IQ societies.
