The HKU Business School introduced the Business Consulting Practicum (BCP) in 2008 to offer students the hands-on experience of working with business clients to solve “real-life” problems related to their studies.  In the past 14 years, the school partnered with over 100 client companies and professional mentors in this BCP programme, nurturing more than 500 student consultants.  This year, in its 15th anniversary, the professional industry network has continued to grow.  In particular, a tripartite synergy formed by 8 client companies from different industries (e.g. financial services, technology solutions, personal care products, pet food, etc.), 8 mentors with different professional backgrounds and a batch of 32 student consultants from HKU Business School are being nurtured with an intensive and rewarding experience in business consulting.

The BCP 2023 has been successfully conducted and well received by all Clients and Mentors; in particular, all student consultant teams received high praise and appreciation for their stunning deliverables and dedication throughout the 4-week practicum.  Although most of the student consultants are fresh to consulting-related work, it is delightful to see all teams work together and are always passionate about going the extra mile for the benefit of their Clients.  Below is one of the appreciation testimonials proving the construction and meaningful tripartite collaboration in BCP 2023.

“Participating in BCP is the most shining and valuable experience in our freshman year.  With the all-around support from the faculty and mentor Maggie, we treasured our consulting practicum experience  with our client INNOTIER, which broadened our horizons and acquired new knowledge and solid skill sets”

“Working with Greenback has been valuable not only for the students but for us as clients too.  The students gave feasible and realistic expansion strategies and they’ve been proactive with their questions and really got to understand our brand.  Great work!”

Project Client | INNOTIER

 

“It was a great experience to work with Greenback.  They were proactive on questions, and act in a timely manner and reported changes promptly in the weekly meetings.  I was impressed by their desire to learn new things, accept others’ perspectives, and be responsive to suggestions and constructive criticism.”

Industry Mentor | Ms. Maggie Ching

The BCP 2023 was positively concluded on July 15 with a closing ceremony cum appreciation luncheon at the HKU iCube.  All teams have treasured their moment to thank all Clients, Mentors and Faculty members who supported their learning and growth during the whole chapter of practicum.  Besides the practical knowledge and skills gained through this process, the nurturing of team spirit and professionalism as a future leader is also remarkable and treasured by all student consultants.

港大經管學院最新多模態AI圖像生成能力排名出爐 部份中國人工智能模型表現突出
港大經管學院今日發表《人工智能模型圖像生成能力綜合評測報告》,針對15個「文生圖模型」及7個「多模態大語言模型」進行全面評估。研究顯示,字節跳動的即夢AI和豆包,以及百度的文心一言,在新圖像生成的內容質素及圖像修改的表現突出;而早前引起全球關注的DeepSeek最新推出的文生圖模型Janus-Pro,則在新圖像生成方面表現欠佳。研究亦發現部分文生圖模型雖然在內容質素方面表現優異,卻在安全與責任方面的表現強差人意。整體而言,與文生圖模型相比,多模態大語言模型整體表現較佳。

人工智能圖像生成評測成績單公布: 字節跳動百度表現亮眼,DeepSeek Janus-Pro表現欠佳
如今,人工智能領域的前沿模型技術已經從文本處理拓展至視覺信息的深度理解與生成。這些模型既能精准解讀圖像語義,又能根據文字描述創作出兼具真實感與藝術性的視覺內容,展現出令人驚嘆的跨模態理解與創作能力。本研究聚焦全新圖像的生成和基于現有圖像的圖像修改兩大核心任務,提出了一套系統性的人工智能模型圖像生成能力評測框架。我們基于多維測試集的構建與專家評審,對15個專業文生圖模型和7個多模態大語言模型的圖像生成能力進行了全面評估。結果顯示,字節跳動的即夢AI和豆包以及百度的文心一言在新圖像生成的內容質量與修改任務中表現突出,位列第一梯隊。對比不同類型的AI模型,我們發現,相對于專業文生圖模型,多模態大語言模型整體表現更佳。
