本課程以「金融科技（FinTech）」為核心，結合人工智慧與區塊鏈相關應用，介紹金融產業的重要技術發展與創新趨勢。課程內容將從區塊鏈的基本概念出發，涵蓋數位資產與加密貨幣的運作方式，說明其在金融市場中的角色與影響，並進一步探討去中心化金融（DeFi）、智慧合約，以及相關的風險與監管議題。
同時，課程亦介紹 AI 在金融領域中的實際應用情境，例如資料分析、趨勢預測與決策支援，說明人工智慧如何被運用於金融科技發展之中。透過案例說明與實作示範，建立對 AI 與金融科技整合應用的基本理解。課程後段將安排智慧合約與應用實作示範，協助建立對相關技術與應用邏輯的初步概念。課程將引導理解科技如何影響金融服務模式、產業運作與未來發展方向。

This course takes "FinTech" as its core, combines artificial intelligence and blockchain-related applications, and introduces important technological developments and innovation trends in the financial industry. The course content will start from the basic concepts of blockchain, cover the operation methods of digital assets and cryptocurrencies, explain their role and impact in the financial market, and further explore decentralized finance (DeFi), smart contracts, and related risk and regulatory issues.
At the same time, the course also introduces the practical application scenarios of AI in the financial field, such as data analysis, trend prediction and decision support, explaining how artificial intelligence is used in the development of financial technology. Establish a basic understanding of the integrated application of AI and financial technology through case explanations and practical demonstrations. In the latter part of the course, smart contract and application implementation demonstrations will be arranged to help establish preliminary concepts of related technologies and application logic. The course will guide the understanding of how technology affects financial service models, industrial operations and future development directions.
