The Artificial Intelligence for Universities (AI4U)
programme with the collaboration between Malaysia
Productivity Corporation (MPC), Malaysian Investment
Development Authority (MIDA), Intel Malaysia and 5
Universities has been successfully launched on 29 Nov
2021.
The AI4U Programme is an initiative that is set out to
introduce an ‘AI-based machine vision’ to the university
community. Parallel to the Malaysian Government’s
aspirations of preparing the country and its youths for
the future, the programme supports the Twelfth
Malaysia Plan (12MP) to advance digital economy,
normalise digitalisation for inclusive development,
accelerate Research, Development, Commercialisation
and Innovation, as well as to capitalise on emerging
technologies. This programme is expected to benefit
young graduates and the underprivileged further
through technical and vocational education and training.
