With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, AI models such as DeepSeek, ChatGPT, and Qwen are accelerating the transformation of teaching and talent cultivation models in universities, becoming an important support for students to enhance their academic abilities and employment competitiveness.
The DeepSeek theme AI+X university tour aims to guide students to efficiently master DeepSeek technology through a combination of online and offline learning, focusing on practical applications, and exploring the practical path of AI in learning, research, and career development, helping young students to meet future challenges with stronger skills.

Summary of the “AI + X University Tour” DeepSeek Special Event (Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University Station)

Event Background

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, its deep integration with various fields has become a trend of the times. AAI Association of Artificial Intelligence, in collaboration with Datawhale Open Source Organization, is committed to promoting the dissemination and application of AI knowledge in universities, stimulating students’ enthusiasm for exploring AI technology, and helping university students find their direction and enhance their capabilities in the wave of artificial intelligence. Therefore, the “AI + X University Tour” DeepSeek special event was held, with Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) as the host university, providing students with a rare opportunity for learning and communication.

Event Preparation

In the preparation stage, AAI and Datawhale Open Source Organization had full communication and coordination, carefully planning the event process. The two sides jointly determined the event theme, prepared lecture materials, and organized interactive segments. Meanwhile, they widely publicized the event to XJTLU students through online channels, releasing the event notice in advance and introducing the event content and participation methods in detail. This attracted many students interested in artificial intelligence to sign up, laying a solid foundation for the smooth conduct of the event.

Event Process

At the beginning of the event, the host representative delivered a welcome speech, warmly welcoming the participating students and briefly introducing the relevant situations of AAI and Datawhale Open Source Organization. The significance of the collaborative event was emphasized, arousing the students’ anticipation for the subsequent segments.

Next came the keynote lecture session. Through vivid case analysis, the students were made to profoundly feel the immense charm and potential of artificial intelligence technology. Their horizons were broadened, and their understanding of artificial intelligence became more comprehensive and in-depth.

In the hands-on practice segment, the students used ima to build their personal knowledge base for DeepSeek. Meanwhile, the format of XJTLU’s first-year oral exam, Mini-Viva, was integrated, along with the comparative use of XIPU AI. This approach could more effectively assist students in preparing for exams.

Event Outcomes

The “AI + X University Tour” DeepSeek special event at XJTLU was a resounding success. Through this event, the students not only gained a wealth of knowledge but also established connections with professionals in the field of artificial intelligence. This provided valuable resources for their future learning and development. After the event, many students expressed a deeper interest in artificial intelligence. They pledged to more actively engage in the study of AI-related courses in the future, strive to enhance their professional skills, and aim to make achievements in the field of artificial intelligence.

At the same time, this event also provided AAI and Datawhale Open Source Organization with valuable experience for conducting similar events in universities in the future. The two sides achieved good results in event organization, guest invitation, and on-site interaction. This laid a solid foundation for further deepening cooperation and expanding the scope of events in the future.

Event Shortcomings and Future Outlook

Despite the overall success of the event, some shortcomings were revealed during the process. For example, the time arrangement for the interactive segment was somewhat tight, and some students’ questions were not fully answered. In response to these issues, in future events, we will make better venue plans in advance to ensure that each student has a good experience. We will also reasonably arrange the time for the interactive segment to ensure that each student’s questions are fully addressed.

In the future, AAI will continue to maintain close cooperation with Datawhale Open Source Organization and continue to hold the “AI + X University Tour” series of events. This will bring cutting-edge AI knowledge and practical experience to more students. We will further enrich the event formats and increase practical operation segments. This will enable students to personally experience the application of AI technology on the basis of theoretical learning. It will also effectively enhance the students’ practical and innovative thinking abilities. At the same time, we will actively expand cooperation with enterprises and research institutions. This will provide students with more internship, practice, and research project cooperation opportunities. We aim to help university students realize their dreams in the field of artificial intelligence and contribute to the development and application of AI technology.

In summary, the successful hosting of the “AI + X University Tour” DeepSeek special event at XJTLU has built a good platform for AI education and communication in universities. It has stimulated students’ enthusiasm for AI technology and promoted the dissemination and application of AI knowledge in universities.
