Russian teens sweep gold at global AI contest — RT Russia & Former Soviet Union
A team of Russian middle-schoolers has won eight medals at the second International Olympiad on Artificial Intelligence (IOAI) in China, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko announced on Friday.
… Launched in 2024, the IOAI presents itself as the world’s first high-level academic AI tournament for middle school students. This year’s event took place in Beijing from August 2 to 8, bringing together 310 students from 61 countries and regions, including the US, China, India, Sweden, Japan, Poland, Brazil, and the UAE.
The Russian team won 8 medals, six of them Gold.
… Other gold medals went to students from Kazakhstan (3), Poland (3), India (3), Romania, Sweden, Vietnam, China and Japan.
It is a reasonable guess that the gold medalists from Kazakhstan were ethnic Russians.
OK, China did not do so well, only getting one Gold medal. Let’s not talk about the US or most of the EU.
