Outstanding achievements include the following:

Outstanding achievements under the Creative AI Camp project

First Prize : CONALYSIS (CO-NA-LY-SIS)
The concept whereby 7-Eleven convenience store serving numerous customers will incur high maintenance costs conceived an idea to utilize AI to recognize material objects and analyse problems through the “Boonchuay” chatbot as a means to reduce overall repair and maintenance costs. The floors and doors of every 7-Eleven store in Thailand are analysed to reduce issues associated with reporting incorrect materials by over 700 calls per year thus totalling to a cost reduction by over 700,000 Baht per year.

First Runner Up : AI FOR 7 – ELEVEN’S PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE TASK PHOTO INSPECTION VIA WEB
Developed as a solution to the pain point whereby today's 7-Eleven convenience stores assess water quality manually therefore consume significant time and may result in human errors, an image processing system is proposed as an inspection tool. To help increase accuracy and efficiency, the AI solution is web integrated to provide an accurate inspection platform accessible which enables rapid inspection from anywhere.

Second Runner Up: ALL FOR U
Developed to integrate AI for the analysis of 7-Eleven convenience stores customers and to double as a personal assistant capable of recommending items which meet individual needs or target group needs at the correct time As a result of system implementation, an additional minimal average of 8OO,OOO bills or 68 million Baht per year in purchases was recorded.

The Best Innovation Award: SMART SUPPORT SYSTEM, AI–BOOSTED KNOWLEDGE HUB
Development of Knowledge Management (KM) Search by AI arising from concerns whereby Call Center staff require significant time to acquire information and customer issue troubleshooting employs Real-time Voice Search (search for various information required using 'Voice commands' on the Search Engine) in conjunction with the original KM system. The yielded accuracy of 82 % resulted in a reduction of call times by at least 35 seconds per call when compared to a typical call.

In 2023, Creative AI Club organized the Creative AI Club Hackathon 2023, a volunteer activity which encourages youth to dare to think, dare to act, and supports youth development. This initiative aims to transfer knowledge to a new generation of youth through organizing a marathon AI development competition for youth at the high school level, higher education (1st and 2nd year university), vocational level, and higher vocational level under the concept of "Spark the Pebbles".The project is in collaboration with allies from the private sector, the public sector, universities, and alumni from CAI Camp. The event outcomes raise awareness of the youth’s pain point that varies and beyond any adult’s expectation. For example, the problem of online learning, an issue with dressing choices, teenage acne problems, confusion in career choices and college course choices, and, importantly, the creative expression of youth in using AI to solve those problems. The committee jointly considered the proposed guidelines, including the feasibility of the practical application and both technical and operational costs. There are many interesting ideas as follows:

Outstanding achievements under the Creative AI Camp project

First Prize : Team “Fist to Catch AI” with the title “I CAN SEE YOUR VOICE”
Voice spoofing detection application created from black belt AI to prevent impersonation from imitated voices and reduces deception issues by fraudsters.

Runner-up : Team “HackperMinute” with the title “MHOR TEXT”
An application which simplifies medicine administration schedules for forgetful patients through reminding patients of timing and dosage for respective medication. This method reduces the chance of drug resistance and risk of not recovering from illness.
