According to AI TIMES, KAIST and POSTECH will hold KAPO Jeon at POSTECH for two days starting on September 18, and the competition will pit a hacking contest that fully allows generative AI against a Mario Kart autonomous driving match involving AI built directly by students. This year’s event will be held across 7 categories, and the key point is that it is bringing the latest technology trends into science competitions in earnest. KAPO Jeon is a regular exchange competition that combines athletic and science events, allowing the two schools to compete on both ability and symbolism. In particular, the format is designed so that spectators can follow the progress of the matches, giving the event a stronger stage-like character for showcasing the results of research and development. The hacking contest, AI competition, and science quiz are structured not as simple events but as a venue for testing students' problem-solving skills, collaboration, and sense of how to use technology. By layering the latest AI applications onto a traditional university rivalry, this year’s KAPO Jeon is being read as an example of how engineering and science student culture is changing.
Perspective
The significance of this issue is that the form of competition is changing. Places that test science and technology capabilities are now moving beyond simply memorizing knowledge or showing coding skills, and toward evaluating how tools are used and how results are implemented. In particular, the format centered on generative AI and autonomous driving competition suggests that the ability to use technology may become a key benchmark in future student competitions and educational settings.
