The conference will feature Jeff Dean, Google’s Chief Scientist and co-founder of Google Brain, Google Translate, Gemini, and many other technology products that have helped Google dominate the global technology industry.
 
AI Summit is an annual event organised by New Turing Institute since 2018, aimed at connecting the domestic AI community with experts from around the world. After many years of successful organisation, the AI Summit has become a significant science and technology event with a prominent position in Southeast Asia.
 
The Generative AI Summit 2024, will be held for the first time in Vietnam by New Turing Institute (NTI) and Rethink Healthcare Foundation (RHF), is an international event with over 1,000 attendees, including top leading AI experts and pioneering AI researchers around the world.
 
The Generative AI Summit 2024 will focus on three main topics: “Foundational Models of GenAI”, “Practical Applications of GenAI”, and “Opportunities for Vietnam”. In the “Foundational Models of GenAI” segment, professors, researchers, and scientists will delve into advanced technologies driving the development of Large Language Models (LLMs). The “Practical Applications of GenAI” segment will feature senior business leaders discussing the transformative potential and applications of GenAI in healthcare, education, and social life. The conference will conclude with the topic “Opportunities for Vietnam” where domestic and international investors and leaders of AI corporations will discuss the impact of GenAI on Vietnam’s technological and economic growth, as well as Vietnam's opportunities and challenges in becoming a leading country in AI.
 
The list of speakers includes Dr. Jeff Dean – Chief Scientist at Google, Dr. Luong Minh Thang – Senior Researcher and Senior Manager at Google DeepMind, Co-founder of the New Turing Institute, and leader of Alpha Geometry, which won silver medal at the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) 2024, and many other top global AI experts will share insights and guide attendees exploring the latest advancements, prominent trends, and the boundless potential of Generative AI technology.
 
Dr. Luong Minh Thang – co-organiser – stated: “This will be the most exciting GenAI conference ever, not only in Việt Nam but in the region. This is also the first time Jeff Dean, the Chief Scientist and 'The God of Engineering' of Google, visits the Southeast Asian country along with other world-renowned experts and entrepreneurs from Silicon Valley. I am thrilled that it will be held right here in Việt Nam. Tech enthusiasts should not miss this opportunity.”
 
 
Master Nguyen Uyen Wendy – co-organizer – shared: “I am eagerly looking forward to this historic moment of the conference, bringing Jeff Dean and top global scientists to Việt Nam. This moment will not come again. It’s also a starting point to nurture talent among young people in Việt Nam, not just in AI but also in thinking, problem-solving, leadership skills, and relentless enthusiasm to drive creativity and innovation for humanity.” VNS
