Dual-Engine Growth : Balancing AI Token Dynamics (Computational Power) and
Human Capital in AI-Powered Commerce 
雙引擎增長:在人工智能驅動的商業模式中,平衡 AI Token 運算資源與人力資本
 
                       
This panel explores how companies can achieve sustainable growth by combining AI-driven innovation with strategic investment in human capital. While token-based technologies and AI are transforming commerce, long-term competitiveness depends on equipping employees with the skills, adaptability, and leadership capabilities to apply these innovations effectively. The discussion will examine how businesses can develop AI-ready talent, redesign workforce roles, and foster a culture of continuous learning to turn technological advancement into measurable business value.

 

雙引擎增長:在人工智能驅動的商業模式中,平衡 AI Token 運算資源與人力資本

本場專題討論將探討企業如何透過「運算資源」與「人力資本」兩大增長引擎,提升人工智能時代下的競爭力。隨着 AI Token 使用量、運算能力及科技基建逐漸成為企業推動創新的重要資源,企業亦需要同步投資於人才培訓、技能提升及組織轉型,確保員工能夠有效運用人工智能工具。

討論將聚焦企業如何平衡對 AI 運算資源與人才發展的投資,培育具備人工智能能力的團隊、重新設計工作流程,並建立持續學習及人機協作的企業文化,從而將科技投入轉化為生產力、商業價值及可持續的競爭優勢。
