AI-Powered Educational Support: Integrating Generative AI and LLM

The TAIDE project, supported by the National Science and Technology Council, aims to create a language model aligned with Taiwanese values and culture. This project has enhanced language education in schools, particularly for teaching Taiwanese, by integrating the language into AI applications.

Ubitus developed “TaiYingHui,” an AI-powered co-learning robot. Using cloud computing (NVIDIA H100) and TAIDE technology, TaiYingHui translates Taiwanese to English and generates English responses. This allows students to practice both languages, improving English skills while preserving their mother tongue, meeting the demand for multilingual education.

Empowering Education with Powerful Computing and AI-Generated Image Creation

Ubitus’s cloud technology is ideally suited for teachers to generate teaching content in real-time during lessons. Through Ubitus’s AI-generated image services, teachers can easily input text or Taiwanese voice commands to instantly create high-quality learning images or materials, enhancing classroom engagement. Ubitus CEO Wesley Kuo stated, “Our technology not only fosters Taiwanese-English co-learning but also equips teachers with user-friendly AI tools for content generation, significantly boosting teaching efficiency.”

Future Outlook: Advancing Innovation in Bilingual Co-Learning Education

This initiative is set to expand its reach further. Currently, 3,300 middle and elementary schools offer Taiwanese-English courses. Plans are underway to enhance the model’s accuracy and linguistic diversity, extending its application to more learning scenarios. This innovative solution aims to benefit the education sector. Ubitus is dedicated to deeply integrating AI technology into education, spurring further innovation in teaching methodologies.
