Human-centered AI Transformation
The advent of AI and the digital age is rapidly changing people’s lifestyles and work patterns. For Chunghwa Post, which has a vast service network and diversified business system, AI is not only an efficiency tool, but also an important support for responding to changes in human resource structure, business complexity, and expectations for service quality.
In the process of digital transformation, the Company has realized that standalone system implementation is insufficient to effectively meet long-term demands. Only by integrating AI applications into the daily workflows of all units can the full value of transformation be achieved. To cultivate our employees’ understanding and application of AI, a number of AI-related lectures and training courses have been organized. In addition, through the "hackathon" competition, employees are encouraged to "start from business pain points and think about how AI can become a work aid." At the same time, through cross-departmental team exchanges and hands-on learning, AI is no longer regarded as a technology exclusive to the information department, but as a work partner that can be understood, tried, and continuously optimized.
The 2025 Postal AI Hackathon entitled “Divine Team Member: Defined By You! Creating a Good AI Helper” attracted 46 teams and nearly 100 employees from various business units. Most participants are from non-IT background, spanning postal services, savings and remittance operations, and administration, indicating that AI applications are progressively entering frontline workplaces. After written review, 12 teams were selected to enter the finals. Through intensive coaching and hands-on practice, they completed the phased results from clarifying requirements and designing processes to prototype implementation.
The Postal AI Hackathon
Instead of the quantity of competition results, we place more emphasis on the "capability diffusion" effect brought about by this event. The application scenarios proposed by each team cover aspects such as postal support, internal knowledge retrieval, and workflow assistance. Some outstanding ideas have been further developed into proof-of-concept (PoC) and incorporated into subsequent internal system development and application evaluation, forming a transformation path from creative idea to institutionalized application.
For postal services, this competition is also an important part of its digital sustainability development. By institutionalizing AI application thinking and cross-domain collaboration capabilities, we can reduce the risks of repetitive tasks and knowledge loss and also gradually establish a human-machine collaborative work model, reducing the burden on frontline staff and improving service consistency and organizational resilience. From a governance perspective, the hands-on experience accumulated through the competition serves as key foundation for future planning of an internal AI platform, the governance of AI applications, and mechanisms for their broader dissemination and scaling.
Looking ahead, Chunghwa Post will continue to prioritize "people-oriented" principles and promote the integration of AI technology and organizational culture, transforming innovation from a one-time activity outcome into a sustainable driving force that supports the quality of postal services, employee growth, and social trust in the long term, and gradually build a smart postal system with efficiency, resilience, and responsibility.
