Overview of the conference |
“The best and fastest way for schools and students to properly understand AI is to start learning and exploiting it in practice early on in a systematic way. If any unit prohibits or restricts the use of AI, it is an ineffective solution, going against the trend of development, causing disadvantages and missing opportunities for students, "said Mr. Ngo Quoc Hung.
