Putian University (莆田学院), the undergraduate university of Putian, Fujian, builds a digital human for Mazu culture.

Its Mazu Culture Digital Intelligence Lab, set up in January 2025, developed the AI digital human Xiaomo (小默): the figure is designed and motion-captured, and its conversation is trained on the lab’s large corpus of Mazu texts, for public education and interactive outreach. It was announced for showing at the 11th World Mazu Culture Forum, and in May 2026 the university signed a five-year agreement with the Meizhou Mazu Temple board to build a Mazu digital human and a Mazu culture digital museum together.
