On the 24th (local time), at the San Francisco AI Summit held in San Francisco, USA, Chairman Chung stated, "The results of our partnerships with big tech companies must serve as a foundation for the growth of the domestic physical AI industry."

He further commented, "Hyundai Motor Group will jointly build a robotics reference platform by combining our advanced robotics technology capabilities with Nvidia’s software development tools and solutions," and added, "We will establish an environment in which academia, enterprises, and others can freely develop and verify within standardized hardware and software frameworks."

He emphasized, "Within this open ecosystem, world-class physical AI talent will be cultivated, and in the near future, Korea will become a global hub leading the physical AI industry."

Chairman Chung also personally introduced Hyundai Motor Group’s physical AI vision based on partnerships with global big tech firms such as Nvidia and Google.

Chairman Chung explained, "The physical AI we are pursuing at Hyundai Motor Group begins with the intelligence of individual devices such as automobiles and robots, advances to the intelligence of specific spaces like AI factories, and ultimately aims to achieve integrated intelligence at the city level where the entire urban infrastructure is organically connected and operated."

He went on to say, "To realize this vision, we have secured the world’s top-tier manufacturing competitiveness and leading robotics capabilities centered around Boston Dynamics, and are building a data flywheel system that links on-site data to the advancement of AI models. In addition, we are accelerating the realization of future physical AI through strategic collaboration with global big tech companies including Nvidia and Google."
