Malaysians aged between 18 and 30 can now redeem three months of ILMUchat Pro for free under the AI Untuk Rakyat programme. The offer is available to eligible Malaysians who complete the required AI training on the Rakyat Digital platform.
ILMUchat Pro normally costs RM50 per month, which means the three-month subscription is worth RM150. Participants will get unlimited usage during the free subscription period.
The initiative is driven by the Ministry of Digital and delivered in collaboration with YTL AI Labs and MyDIGITAL Corporation via Rakyat Digital.
Who is eligible for free ILMUchat Pro?
The AI Untuk Rakyat programme targets 100,000 Malaysians aged between 18 and 30, which is inline with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s announcement yesterday.
To qualify for the three-month ILMUchat Pro subscription, participants are required to log in to the Rakyat Digital platform and complete the required courses. After completing the courses, they can select ILMUchat Pro from their Rakyat Digital dashboard.
