As demand for artificial intelligence (AI) skills continues to rise, more business leaders are turning to AI education to stay ahead. Among them are siblings Fang Zhiyin and Fang Jingmin, who run a family-owned jewelry company and recently joined an AI-powered design course to modernize their operations.
The pair, successors of Shenzhen Baibaohui Gold Jewelry Co., had long sought ways to maintain a competitive edge in a fast-changing market. They realized that traditional methods no longer met customer expectations for personalized and quickly delivered products.
Their search led them to an AI training program offered in Cuizhu, a neighborhood in Luohu district of Shenzhen, Guangdong province. The course, backed by local authorities, is designed to help businesses become more competitive and teach individuals how to apply AI tools in their work.
“We saw how much AI could transform our business,” said Fang Jingmin, the company’s head of research and development, who joined the course with his sister in March.
The results were immediate and striking. What once took several days to design—custom jewelry—can now be created in minutes with AI assistance, cutting design time by 80 percent.
AI-powered image recognition helps the company quickly analyze reference images from customers, making it easier to understand their preferences. As a result, customer satisfaction has increased by 35 percent.
Another major upgrade is the use of real-time 3D rendering, allowing customers to preview designs instantly. This has reduced decision-making time by half and increased the conversion rate from design to final product by 28 percent.
“In today’s AI era, it’s not the technology that causes companies to fall behind—it’s the refusal to adapt to it,” said Fang Zhiyin, who leads the company’s commodities department.
As AI continues to shape industries, stories like the Fangs’ highlight how technology, when embraced, can redefine traditional business models.
