The Confucius digital intelligence model, launched during the 2025 China International Confucius Cultural Festival, brings ancient wisdom into the digital age. Developed by Shandong Digital Culture Group, this AI model integrates extensive data on Confucius, enabling natural language dialogue with users, interpreting classical wisdom, conducting intelligent literature retrieval, supporting academic theoretical research, enabling multimodal human-computer interaction, and constructing knowledge graphs. It responds to queries in a lively manner, making Confucius feel vivid and relatable.
Visitors can also explore space through VR experiences at the Jining Xingfu River Artificial Intelligence + Planetarium. The VR simulation of the Tianhe Core Module allows children to experience a rocket launch and space station entry, offering an unforgettable astronaut adventure.
At the Jining Museum's 5G theater, VR technology transports viewers to the Tang Dynasty (618-907) via the film Chang An. Wearing headsets, audiences become part of the story, journeying through the Tang Dynasty's glory and interacting with historical figures like Li Bai.
