Harvard Business School Launches $699 Entrepreneurship Bootcamp, AI Digital Avatar Instructors Provide Pitch Feedback
Harvard Business School introduces AI digital avatars created by HeyGen in its $699 entrepreneurship bootcamp to provide personalized feedback to students during simulated pitches and other segments.
The HBS Foundry entrepreneurship bootcamp launched by Harvard Business School has officially introduced AI technology. The course lasts for 8 weeks and costs $699. In practical segments such as simulated pitches and board meetings, AI digital avatars created by HeyGen are responsible for providing feedback to students.
This move marks the deep integration of generative AI in the fields of education and vocational training. Using AI virtual avatars to replace some human instructor work can significantly reduce operating costs while achieving scaled delivery of personalized feedback, improving the efficiency of teaching resource utilization.
The cooperation between a top business school and an AI startup reflects the acceptance of intelligent technology by traditional educational institutions. If this model is widely replicated, it will change the way teachers and students interact, but it may also spark discussions regarding AI feedback accuracy and teaching ethics.
As a representative enterprise in the field of AI video generation, HeyGen's technology being included in Harvard's course underscores the maturity of AI digital human technology in commercial applications. In the future, similar technologies may play a role in more training scenarios requiring high-frequency interaction.
