On August 8, the 8th lecture of the "Cultural Nourishment of Mountainous Guizhou: Distinguished Scholars Lecture Series of the Colorful Guizhou 'Four Major Cultural Projects' Academic Committee" and the 1200th session of the Confucius Academy Forum commenced at the Guiyang Confucius Academy.

Wu Genyou, member of the Academic Committee for the Colorful Guizhou "Yangming Culture Transformation and Application Project" and professor at the Ma Yifu Institute and the School of Philosophy of Zhejiang University, was invited to the forum. Delivering a lecture titled "The Contemporary Significance of 'Extending Innate Knowing' and 'Deeply Engaged' Knowledge: A Discussion on the Significance of Wang Yangming's Theory of 'Extending Innate Knowing' in the AI Era," he anchored his talk in the historical origins of Wang Yangming's enlightenment at Longchang, Guizhou, and his doctrine of "extending innate knowing." Combining Guizhou's creative and innovative practices in utilizing Yangming culture, he attempted to integrate traditional heart-mind learning wisdom with the propositions of the AI era. By analyzing the phenomenon in the age of AI where knowledge acquisition is effortless yet often lacks "deeply personal" engagement, he deeply expounded on the modern significance and unique value of Wang Yangming's heart-mind learning in shaping human spiritual beliefs and other dimensions.
