iFlytek Co Ltd, a Shenzhen-listed tech firm, is using artificial intelligence to help children in remote areas get a better education.
With an initial investment of 10 million yuan ($1.45 million), the company, which is known for its voice-recognition technology, will donate artificial-intelligence-enabled teaching products to pupils in poorer regions.
In a statement, the company said: "We hope the children in remote regions will also enjoy the happiness brought by technological advancements and be able to access quality educational resources just as their urban counterparts do."
