Lucas GC, 4Paradigm sign strategic cooperation agreement

Lucas GC announced that it has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Beijing Fourth Paradigm Technology to develop Artificial Intelligence training programs. The two companies will work together to develop training courses in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data analytics. Howard Lee, Founder and CEO of Lucas, said, “As the applications of AI proliferate, the demand for AI talents has increased significantly. However, the industry lacks practical and relevant AI training opportunities with knowledge that can be immediately applied on the job. In cooperation with 4Paradigm, Lucas will leverage both companies’ resources in granted patents, practical on-the-job training materials that are relevant to real-life scenarios, to jointly develop AI training courses that can equip AI professionals with skills that the industry needs. Our training courses will focus more on practical industry applications rather than theoretical learning, which we believe is well covered in schools. Our collaborative efforts aim to close the gap between academia and industry, ensuring that graduates possess the practical AI skills required by organizations to improve their employability. Given China is leading in AI applications worldwide, we believe the contents with practical industry knowledge can be applicable to other geographies as well, in line with Lucas’ overseas expansion roadmap.”
