One-Week AI Build一周 AI 项目测试

Build something useful. Show how AI amplifies your productivity.做一个有用的项目,展示 AI 如何提升你的生产力。

Before joining us, you can take an optional, roughly one-week challenge: use AI to build something interesting and genuinely useful. Choose any direction and tools; the examples below are only inspiration. The goal is to deliver genuinely valuable work and, within one week, use AI to accomplish as many person-months of equivalent non-AI work as possible.加入我们之前,可以做一个约一周的小测试:用 AI 做一个好玩、真正有用的项目。方向和工具完全自选,下面的案例仅供参考。目标是在成果本身有实际价值的前提下,借助 AI,在一周内完成尽可能多的、原本需要较多人月才能完成的工作。

What to show我们想看什么

  • A valuable result: solve a real problem, deliver a working core workflow, and provide a demo with verifiable evidence.成果本身有价值:解决真实问题,完成一个核心流程,提供演示和可核验的结果。
  • Effective use of AI: record tools, model versions, costs, and total human time, including collaborators and outsourced work.使用 AI 的能力:记录工具、模型版本、费用,以及包含合作与外包在内的总人工时间。
  • A credible productivity estimate: how many person-months would the same deliverable take without generative AI? Break it into tasks and state what you reused.可信的生产力提升:不用生成式 AI,同等成果需要多少人月?按任务拆解,并说明复用了什么、你新增了什么。

Four examples for inspiration四个参考案例(方向不限)

Low-memory model inference小内存运行大模型

Build a C inference engine with disk streaming; measure memory, speed, and output consistency. Estimated non-AI effort: 3–8 person-months, excluding model training.用 C 实现推理和磁盘流式加载,验证内存、速度与输出一致性。无 AI 估算:3–8 人月,不含模型训练。

Watch the shared clip or inspect the engine and benchmarks.先看演示短片,再看推理引擎与性能测试。

Interactive 3D dental teaching交互式 3D 口腔教学

Explore jaws, teeth, and tissues in a browser, with rotation, layers, and annotations. Estimated effort: 2–5 person-months, assuming suitable base models already exist.在浏览器中探索颌骨、牙齿和组织,支持旋转、分层与教学标注。无 AI 估算:2–5 人月,前提是已有可用的基础模型素材。

Open the 3D website and explore the anatomy interactively.打开 3D 网站,亲手体验口腔解剖的交互展示。

Slides into an interactive course课件变成交互课程

Turn existing slides into narration, synchronized playback, and exercises. Estimated effort: 0.5–1.5 person-months per lecture; roughly 5–15 for 10–12 lectures sharing a player.基于已有 slides 制作讲解、同步翻页和互动练习。无 AI 估算:每讲 0.5–1.5 人月;10–12 讲共用播放器,整门约 5–15 人月。

Play a chapter and try the slide navigation and bilingual subtitles.播放一个章节,体验翻页导航和中英文字幕。

Verifiable mock apps可验证的模拟 App

Recreate task-relevant app interactions with resettable states and automated checks, as in PhoneWorld. Estimated effort: 20–50 person-months for 34 apps, excluding full commercial backends and model training.参考 PhoneWorld,复现任务所需的 App 交互,支持状态重置和自动验收。无 AI 估算:34 个 App 约 20–50 人月,不含完整商业后台和模型训练。

Explore the mock-app examples and task verification workflow.查看模拟 App 示例,以及任务执行与验证流程。

These are rough engineering estimates, not the authors' recorded effort or claims that the projects took one week. Assume experienced developers and the same available frameworks and assets. One person-month = 20 working days. Choose a manageable scope; usefulness and reliability matter more than a large estimate.以上是工程粗估,并非作者实际工时,也不代表这些项目均在一周内完成。基线为熟练开发者使用同样可用的框架与素材,1 人月按 20 个工作日计。请选择一周内可完成的范围;实用性与可靠性比数字大更重要。

How to submit如何提交

Email wangbenyou@cuhk.edu.cn with the subject AI Test | Name | Position | Project. Include:发送至 wangbenyou@cuhk.edu.cn,主题:AI Test|姓名|申请岗位|项目名。附上:

  • Demo or reproducible repository, plus a 2–3 minute walkthrough. You may use AI to generate the walkthrough, including its script, narration, and editing; it should show your actual project and results.在线 Demo 或可复现代码仓库,加一段 2–3 分钟演示。演示也可以通过 AI 生成,包括脚本、配音和剪辑,展示实际项目与成果即可。
  • One page covering results, your contribution, AI tools and costs, actual human time, the non-AI effort breakdown, and limitations.一页说明:成果、个人贡献、AI 工具与费用、实际人工时间、无 AI 所需人月的拆解,以及当前局限。
  • Please indicate the position you are applying for; ideally, attach both your CV and academic transcript.注明申请方向,最好同时附上简历和成绩单。
