Adorable footage of an active giant panda cub playfully chasing the cameraman and showing off her talents for running and climbing trees was recently released.

The video was shot this month at the Sunshine Delivery House for Giant Pandas at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in southwest China's Sichuan Province, and was recently posted on the iPanda platform.

The lively giant panda cub in the camera is called Ji Xiao. Born in 2019 to Ji Li and American-born Mei Lan, Ji Xiao is the first captive giant panda born in 2019. 

Ji Xiao was born with a gray coat, which makes her stand out in a crowd of black and white furries.

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is a world-renowned institution for the conservation of giant pandas.

The base is famous for its work in protecting and breeding giant pandas, red pandas and other endangered wild animals exclusive to China as well as its educational outreach programs and its role as a major tourist attraction.

Human creativity not to be replicated by AI: Belarusian art student

2024-05-03 03:43 Last Updated At:08:17

Human imagination and creativity, especially in making art, will not be replicated by artificial intelligence (AI), according to an art student from Belarus.

Katrina, who is getting her master's degree in intercultural communication studies at Shanghai Theatre Academy, shared her future career aspirations and her insights on the role technology will play in the arts with China Global Television Network (CGTN).

According to Katrina, a perfect job is one that would allow her to unleash her creativity and bring her artistic vision to life.

"For me, the perfect job isn't just about earning a paycheck. It's about following my passion. It involves building my own small business, a place where I can unleash my creativity and bring my artistic vision to life. It's not just about making money. It's about crafting a space where every brushstroke and design detail reflects my unique spirit. I want to leave behind the legacy of innovation and influence through my work, making a meaningful impact on those around me. The process of creation and development holds tremendous significance. It's where I discover true fulfillment and purpose," she said.

In terms of technology's impact on her future job prospects, Katrina believes that certain elements integral to her creative process may not be replicated by AI. She notes that the distinct qualities, insights and creative approaches are what make people irreplaceable.

"When considering the impact of technology like AI on my future work, I anticipate that its influence might not be substantial. I hold a deep appreciation for the imaginative aspect of my craft, and I believe that certain elements integral to my creative process may not be adequately replicated by AI. I believe my individuality is something that technology can never replicate. Similarly, I think your uniqueness is also irreplaceable. Our distinct qualities, insights and creative approaches are what make us indispensable in our respective fields," she said.

"So, while technology may enhance certain aspects of our work, our personal uniqueness remains irreplaceable. I wish they rely on themselves, love themselves and pursue their dreams without being discouraged by negativity," she said.
