Students Sharing:
“I am honoured to be selected as the champion of the FSDC Career Day 2022 “Pitch Perfect” Video Competition. As a local student myself, the topic was particularly relevant to me as there is an observable trend of the exodus of professionals and our city slipping in competitiveness rankings, with cities like Dubai and Singapore quickly catching up. Therefore, I came up with a few strategies including promoting Hong Kong as an ESG investment hub, offshore RMB centre, innovation centre and most importantly reskilling and upskilling our local workforce. The Career Day was also a precious opportunity to mingle with panelists who were also from the crypto/web3 scene in Hong Kong.”

HKU Business School Releases a Comprehensive Evaluation Report on the Image-Generation Capabilities of AI Models
HKU Business School released a Comprehensive Evaluation Report on the Image Generation Capabilities of Artificial Intelligence Models, providing a systematic assessment of 15 text-to-image models and 7 multimodal large language models (LLMs). The results showed that ByteDance’s Dreamina and Doubao, as well as Baidu’s ERNIE Bot ranked among the top performers in terms of image content quality for new-image generation and image revision. However, despite DeepSeek having attracted global attention, its newly released text-to-image model, Janus-Pro, did not perform as well in new-image generation. HKU Business School researchers also found that while some text-to-image models excelled in content quality, their performance in safety and responsibility was significantly lacking. In general, multimodal LLMs demonstrated better overall performance compared to text-to-image models.
