In order to further promote the popularization of science and technology resources, demonstrate the social responsibility of iFLYTEK's young scientific and technological workers, and create an innovative cultural atmosphere of the Group, on June 9, on the occasion of the 24th anniversary of iFLYTEK, the final of the "Super AI Speaker" 2023 iFLYTEK Science Popularization Speech Contest, jointly organized by iFLYTEK Science and Technology Association, Organization Development and Human Resources Department, and Party and Mass Work Department, and undertaken by the Artificial Intelligence Technology Communication Center and iFLYTEK Industry Acceleration Center, was successfully held at iFLYTEK headquarters.
The Deputy Director of the Youth Science and Technology Center of China Association for Science and Technology delivered a video speech, the Director of Anhui Youth Science and Technology Activity Center, the Senior Vice President of iFLYTEK and the Chairman of the Enterprise Science and Technology Association, the Vice Chairman and Secretary-General of iFLYTEK Enterprise Science and Technology Association, the Director of the Artificial Intelligence Communication Center, and the Deputy General Manager of iFLYTEK Industry Acceleration Center attended the event. The event specially invited the director of the science popularization department of Anhui Science and Technology Association, the director of the science popularization department of Hefei Science and Technology Association, the vice chairman of iFLYTEK Enterprise Science and Technology Association and the vice president of the research institute, the vice president of iFLYTEK, the vice chairman of the enterprise science and technology association, the general manager of the industrial acceleration center, and the deputy secretary of the party committee and general manager of the administration department of iFLYTEK as the judges of this competition.
The deputy director of the Youth Science and Technology Center of the China Association for Science and Technology said in the opening video speech that for many years, the Youth Science and Technology Center (Science Popularization Activity Center) of the China Association for Science and Technology has been committed to popularizing and disseminating science and technology to young people and the public, improving the scientific quality of citizens, and cultivating the future generation of scientific and technological innovation talents. As a well-known technology enterprise in global artificial intelligence, iFLYTEK not only attaches importance to scientific and technological innovation, but also is enthusiastic about science popularization, providing high-quality science popularization resources and science popularization talent services in major national science popularization activities such as National Science Popularization Day, Science and Technology Workers Day, and Science and Technology Activity Week, and actively practicing General Secretary Xi Jinping's idea that "science popularization and scientific and technological innovation are equally important".
Since the competition was launched, the event has received enthusiastic attention from iFLYTEK people. After fierce competition in the preliminary round, 10 contestants advanced to the final. The contestants fully demonstrated the positive and enterprising youth spirit of iFLYTEK's young scientific and technological workers in the new era in the form of iFLYTEK talking about AI, and brought a wonderful artificial intelligence science popularization feast to the audience.
Science is a spirit, an attitude and method of pursuing truth. The contestants combined their own experience and used easy-to-understand language, quoted scriptures and classics, vividly and vividly explained to everyone the basic concepts, origin and development process of artificial intelligence, AI from being able to hear and speak to understanding and thinking about the history of evolution, the spark model, the landing and application of artificial intelligence technology, and combined with interesting cases and life scenes such as how machines recognize faces and people, distinguish traffic lights, etc., to explain the use of artificial intelligence to build a better world. The wonderful explanations and on-site interaction of the contestants gave everyone a new understanding and understanding of artificial intelligence, which was not only conducive to the popularization of artificial intelligence science and technology, but also built a new fulcrum and added new colors to the development of science popularization.
Subsequently, the judges made detailed and comprehensive comments on the wonderful explanations of the contestants one by one, and put forward opinions and suggestions on strengthening the scientificity of popular science reports, improving the applicability of objects, enriching speech forms and skills, and strengthening the value guidance of popular science, which greatly benefited the contestants and the audience. The special guests and judges unanimously said that iFLYTEK gave full play to its advantages in artificial intelligence technology and held innovative science popularization speech activities, which not only fully demonstrated the social responsibility and public welfare feelings of iFLYTEK people, but also a very meaningful innovative attempt and exploration to promote artificial intelligence science popularization and communication. After fierce competition, the first, second and third prizes were awarded.
At the event, under the joint witness of the participating leaders and expert judges, the iFLYTEK Science Popularization Lecturer Group was established, and the contestants became the founding members of the iFLYTEK Science Popularization Lecturer Group. As the backbone of the future popularization of artificial intelligence science, the contestants said that in the future, they will continue to strengthen learning, improve their ability to popularize science, actively participate in the cause of science popularization, and use the call to action to attract more young scientific and technological workers to join the scientific and technological communication team, sow the seeds of love for science, ignite the flame of scientific innovation, and contribute a small contribution to the improvement of the scientific quality of the whole people.
The two wings of science popularization and scientific and technological innovation fly together, and technology and application stand in the same center. In the future, iFLYTEK will continue to increase its support for popular science, and create a good atmosphere of loving science, advocating science and adhering to innovation through a variety of innovative science popularization activities, so that more people can use a pair of scientific eyes to understand AI, discover AI, and explore more possibilities of AI.
