Director of Broadcasting Angelina Kwan on Tuesday led students taking part in RTHK's Solar Project on an artificial intelligence tour that included a stop at Alibaba's headquarters in Hangzhou.

The project is part of the broadcaster's annual summer programme.

The delegation, which includes some 100 students, went to the Alibaba office to learn more about how the conglomerate uses AI.

Participants said finding out more about the firm's use of computer chips helped pique a higher level of interest in them to learn more about technological developments.

They also went to the office of a tech startup BrainCo, where they were shown how a handicapped person found the firm's artificial limb to be better than the ones that he used in the past.

The delegation also paid a visit to the Hangzhou Future Science Town to learn more about the city's developments in areas such as AI and smart city.
