On June 8, the Ministry of Science and ICT announced the achievements of AI models developed by Motif Technologies, LG AI Research, SK Telecom, and NC AI.

The National Heritage Administration plans to utilize Motif Technologies' proprietary AI model to enhance the efficiency of national heritage administration, thereby establishing a foundation for providing fast and reliable public services. In addition, the agency will integrate this proprietary AI model into its current national heritage image generation service, HAI, to help the public experience national heritage more easily.

LG AI Research is engaged in "full-stack collaboration" by combining its own large-scale AI model, Exaone, with Renegade (RNGD), the second-generation high-performance neural processing unit (NPU) developed by AI semiconductor company FuriosaAI. This collaboration aims to go beyond simple technical proof-of-concept, setting a global standard for companies seeking to independently design and operate their own AI infrastructure.

SK Telecom, together with mobility platform company 42dot, unveiled Gleo AI, a voice AI assistant (agent) for vehicles. In addition, SKT and 42dot are developing a large language model (LLM) specialized for automotive use. SKT plans to build a dedicated AI agent voice dataset with 42dot and support natural in-car conversations.

The AI model from NC’s dedicated AI organization, NC AI, will be introduced in the financial sector at Shinhan Bank. It supports the creation of a digital twin environment identical to offline financial branches and precisely analyzes sales flows, helping to design the optimal financial environment through pre-simulation. A digital twin is a technology that replicates real-world spaces in a virtual environment to support prediction and optimization of outcomes. According to the Ministry of Science and ICT, "We expect that the technologies utilizing K-AI will help strengthen the competitiveness of our financial industry."
