As the United Nations marks its 80th anniversary in 2025, CGTN has launched "One Home: Shared Future" – a visual storytelling initiative with global participation, inviting young content creators worldwide to share their visions for humanity's future.

UK vlogger Luke Johnston traveled to Karamay, Xinjiang, to explore the city's emerging artificial intelligence (AI) industry. While historically known for its rich oil reserves, Karamay is now also leveraging its abundant sunlight and high-altitude conditions which enhance solar energy efficiency, making it an ideal hub for AI computing infrastructure. Supportive government policies have also further promoted industrial clustering, attracting major internet companies to set up operations here. After visiting a local data center, Luke was impressed by both Karamay's natural conditions and the career opportunities it offers.
