Civil Service College and Peking University's joint programme holds lecture on "Artificial General Intelligence: Frontiers, Trends, Paradigm, and Strategy" (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
     The Civil Service College (CSC), in collaboration with the Institute for Hong Kong and Macau Studies, Peking University, launched an in-depth programme on "one country, two systems" and contemporary China. As part of the programme, a lecture on the topic of "Artificial General Intelligence: Frontiers, Trends, Paradigm, and Strategy" was delivered by the Dean of the School of Intelligence Science and Technology of Peking University, Professor Zhu Songchun, at the CSC today (May 21).

     Addressing the lecture, the Secretary for the Civil Service, Mrs Ingrid Yeung, said that the development of "new quality productive forces" will open up deeper and broader development space for Hong Kong. With its unique advantages of strong support of the motherland and close connections with the world under the "one country, two systems" principle, Hong Kong integrates closely with the international community. Coupled with its high standards in scientific research, the city attracts a wealth of research and professional talent, contributing to the country's high-quality development. Civil servants of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government should embrace Hong Kong's role in developing "new quality productive forces", and stay abreast of the innovation and technology development strategy of the country. They should also actively promote the high-quality development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and complement the implementation of the Hong Kong Innovation and Technology Development Blueprint, thereby enhancing Hong Kong's overall competitiveness and injecting impetus into its development. 

     Around 70 civil servants at the rank of Directorate Pay Scale Point 1 and 2 attended the programme. In addition, about 130 politically appointed officials and other directorate officers enrolled and sat in on the lecture via video conferencing.

     The programme was organised to further strengthen training for senior officials and directorate civil servants. It consists of 12 monthly lectures covering a wide range of topics, such as the Communist Party of China and contemporary China, socialism with Chinese characteristics, the theory and practice of "one country, two systems", as well as developments in contemporary Chinese society, economy, national defence, technology, and more. Distinguished scholars from the Mainland will deliver the programme and engage in in-depth discussions with participants.
