Abstract
With the advent of the new digital era, artificial intelligence (AI) has been developing rapidly in recent years and has become a new phenomenon in the industry and academia. A university in Taiwan’s Hsinchu City educates students’ AI technological knowledge and enhances their AI capabilities by establishing the first “AI+ Experience Centre” in Taiwan’s academia and combining AI with her five colleges' professional fields. Undoubtedly teachers will be happy to use AI as their new teaching platform if AI may improve communication and interaction with students. Students who study design will focus on computer-aid design technology; those who study hotel management will use conversational AI technology to enhance their service level; and those who study business management will apply natural AI language processing to improve their language skill. The authors will share the development, implementation, and reflection details, and the findings will provide strategies for applying AI experiential learning in higher education institutions.
