TalentCorp Hosts Largest Jelajah AI MyMahir Session in Bandar Utama
Over 400 participants joined the latest AI education initiative held at SJK (C) Puay Chai 2.

More than 400 Malaysians gathered in Bandar Utama on August 8 to participate in a hands-on learning event dedicated to artificial intelligence. The gathering marked the 16th edition of the Jelajah AI MyMahir (JAM) programme, representing the largest turnout for the series organised by Talent Corporation Malaysia Berhad (TalentCorp) to date.
The event took place at SJK (C) Puay Chai 2, drawing a diverse group of attendees from various backgrounds. Participants included students, retirees, jobseekers, employees, and entrepreneurs, all looking to gain practical experience with AI technologies. According to the original publisher, the initiative aims to bridge the digital skills gap by providing accessible education to different demographics across the country.
The JAM initiative is part of a broader push to familiarise the local workforce and public with the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence. By bringing these workshops to community locations like Bandar Utama, TalentCorp provides a platform for individuals to explore tools that are increasingly shaping modern industries and daily professional tasks.
As Malaysia continues to navigate the rapid integration of AI into the economy, such public-facing education efforts remain a critical component of the national strategy. Engaging a wide range of citizens—from jobseekers preparing for the workforce to entrepreneurs and retirees—ensures that the benefits and functionalities of AI technology are understood across different segments of the Malaysian society.
