Thailand’s Chiang Mai University (CMU) has signed multiple memoranda of understanding (MOUs) with IBM and the National University of Singapore (NUS) to deepen research collaboration in artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing.

Under the first agreement, CMU will participate in the IBM–NUS Research and Innovation Centre to establish an AI-centric compute infrastructure. It will leverage prototype IBM Spyre Accelerators to enable the efficient tuning and inferencing of fine-tuned models.

The move aims to make AI more accessible and affordable in Thailand, with plans to develop AI-powered geospatial models to tackle natural disasters, air pollution (PM2.5), and flooding.
