BEIJING: BEIJING, Jan. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from China.org.cn on the Chinese character of the year: If one asks ChatGPT about “Zhi (meaning intelligent)”, the 2024 Chinese character of the year, it will probably answer with this: The character “Zhi” has two particles, “Zhi (a different Chinese character with similar pronunciation)”, which means to know or knowledge, and “Ri”, which stands for the sun but denotes illumination here. So, “Zhi” means knowledge via illumination, which makes wisdom or intelligence.
