HANOI, Feb. 23 (Xinhua) -- Vietnam's southern economic hub Ho Chi Minh City will pilot artificial intelligence (AI) education at about 170 schools starting in March, local daily Thanh Nien reported Monday.
The municipal Department of Education and Training will implement the trial program at specialized high schools, as well as at institutions delivering high-quality, advanced curricula with regional and international integration, and accredited schools meeting established standards.
