Is AI recognized as “co-research”?

On May 18, Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City organized a seminar with the theme "Digital Human Resources - The Key to Success in the AI ​​Era" - an event within the series of activities of the 17th Internship and Employment Festival in 2025.

Principal Nguyen Duc Trung shares his views on recognizing AI in research as co-authors

At the seminar, Ms. Chu Hong Hanh, Director of Innovation Department of Asia Commercial Joint Stock Bank ( ACB ), said that businesses are applying AI (artificial intelligence) quite deeply in data processing. AI is being applied strongly and is present in almost all fields, but we should not worry too much about it replacing people because people are still the most important.

The Chairman of the Vietnam Blockchain Association, Mr. Phan Duc Trung, gave the productivity if the staff knows how to apply AI. For the same job, if a person handles it in the traditional way, it takes 14 days, but if a staff knows how to use AI, it only takes 3 days. In programming companies, 25% of the code is handled by AI, thereby reducing staff and salary funds.

At the seminar, many students wondered whether AI should be applied in learning, research and exams...? Ms. Chu Hong Hanh said that if the application of AI brings higher quality and efficiency, then why not take advantage of it. Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Duc Trung, Principal of Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City, emphasized that in the digital age, people must really know how to apply AI to create better products. Technology changes everything, if human resources cannot adapt, they will be eliminated.

According to the Principal of Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City, digital human resources need many skills but there are 4 most important skills that must be equipped, including: technology skills, English (Chinese can be added later), AI training skills, and good expertise. He also said that Vietnam is a country with a very high rate of AI application but AI development is still low, one of the reasons is that AI development requires a very large cost.

Regarding whether Ho Chi Minh City Banking University will recognize students using AI in research and exams, the school's leaders said they really want to but are afraid of "going against the tide" because no other school has recognized it. Principal Nguyen Duc Trung said that AI is a non-biological productive force, so in research, co-authorship can be recorded as the author's name + AI.
