HONG KONG, Dec. 19 (Xinhua) -- The resources China funnels into college education, along with its vast talent pool, will help foster the development of artificial intelligence (AI), said 1986 Turing Award winner John Edward Hopcroft on Friday on the sidelines of the inaugural Hong Kong AI Art Festival.
"Chinese students have an advantage because they live in a country which really believes that education in AI is important," Hopcroft told Xinhua. He devoted much of his life to AI education and has taught at multiple Chinese universities.
