AI for Good

The 2025 AI for Good Global Summit, co-hosted by ITU and UN agencies in Geneva, convened global AI leaders and over 300 firms. Chinese companies including Yuntian Life, China Mobile, Alibaba DAMO, and Baidu demonstrated rising influence. Discussions covered AI’s role in sustainability, ethics, and practical applications. Yuntian Life’s CEO emphasized making AI accessible via efficient inference chips. The summit fostered debate on AI’s future and accelerated innovation from labs to real-world impact.

At the ITU’s Geneva “AI for Good” summit, New Oriental founder Yu Minhong addressed the middle-age crisis. He described it as a normal, critical inflection point offering a choice: embrace renewal for a “second spring” or risk decline. Yu advised setting new life goals and persistently tackling challenges head-on via “cumulative small wins.” He exemplified this resilience through his own experience steering New Oriental’s dramatic pivot from near-collapse in education to success in live-streaming commerce via Oriental Selection.
