Yiguo English held the Digital Time Capsule launch ceremony at the "AI Wave Star Show" Grand Finals, symbolizing the preservation of the children's dreams and aspirations for the future.
Yiguo English's annual brand event, "A Message to My Future Self — Unlock AI, Meet the Future Me," officially kicked off this year. The opening chapter, the "AI Wave Star Show," went through open auditions and intensive training before holding its Grand Finals and Awards Ceremony on the 6th. Centered on the theme of "conversing with your future self," the event combines all-English public speaking, AI creative tools, and stage performances — guiding children to draw from everyday observations, reflect on their relationship with the future world, and build confidence through creation and expression.
Yiguo: In the AI Era, Awareness, Creativity, and a Spirit of Exploration Matter Most for Children
Wei Yu-Ping, General Manager of Yiguo English, stated that education in the AI era is not just about teaching children how to use technology — what matters more is cultivating their awareness, creativity, and spirit of exploration. She noted that through the "A Message to My Future Self — Unlock AI, Meet the Future Me" brand initiative, Yiguo hopes children will learn to think independently during the process of creating and expressing, and even when facing the rapidly changing AI era, they will still be able to voice their views with courage and engage confidently with the world.
Integrating Cross-Disciplinary Resources to Build an Immersive AI Learning Experience
This year's Yiguo brand event also brought together multiple cross-disciplinary resources. GenApe provided AI creative tools to help participants brainstorm ideas and generate visuals. During the intensive training, the Corn Chicken Theater troupe arranged stage courses to strengthen students' physical expression, emotional interpretation, and stage presence. In addition, VRSTATE, Inventec's metaverse brand, brought its AI virtual judge technology to the Grand Finals once again this year — adding a more interactive technological experience through real-time interaction and commentary, allowing children to more authentically experience the application scenarios of AI and future technologies. The Grand Finals also specially invited artist Jacky Chiang (蔣偉文) and bilingual anchor Liu Chen-Xi (劉宸希) to serve as judges, offering participants professional advice and encouragement on aspects such as expressiveness, creativity, and stage charisma.

Helping Children Find Their Own Voice in the AI Generation
Yiguo emphasized that "A Message to My Future Self — Unlock AI, Meet the Future Me" is more than just a competition — it is a learning journey that helps children build the AI literacy they will need in the future. Through the integration of AI technology, English expression, and creative thinking, Yiguo continues to build a stage where children can explore bravely and speak with confidence — accompanying them as they find their own voice in the AI generation and step forward courageously toward the future.
