KT announced on the 22nd that it held a launch ceremony for the 'Modu AI' consortium the previous day at KT Gwanghwamun West Building in Jongno-gu, Seoul. The consortium will operate the 'Eum Alliance,' which aims to integrate the technologies and capabilities of each participating company in order to provide AI services that anyone in the country can easily and conveniently use in daily life.

The Eum Alliance consists of decision-making bodies such as the 'Eum Connect Board,' made up of experts and operational leaders from each field who determine the primary business directions, and the regular integrated council 'Eum Eco-Round,' which serves to share and expand achievements. Based on this framework, the consortium will share schedules among participating companies to promptly coordinate joint projects and key issues, aiming to accelerate both the pace and quality of their business initiatives.

In addition, the consortium will establish operational frameworks for service and technology centered on the Service and Platform Divisions. The Service Division is responsible for user-centered AI service planning, user experience (UX) design, and the connection and launch of public and specialized services. The Platform Division will handle the integration and connection of core technologies such as AI models, token factories, data, infrastructure, and APIs.

Next month, the consortium plans to launch a beta version of 'Modu AI,' based on the 'Eum Inside' strategy. Eum Inside is an open AI ecosystem that embeds AI into a wide range of services accessed by the public and connects them through a single, universal AI agent. New AI models and service companies can continuously join and participate in this ecosystem.

Jinhyeong Lee, Executive Vice President and Head of the KT AX Business Division, stated, "The launch of the consortium marks the starting point for bringing together the AI models, platforms, and service capabilities held by domestic AI companies to deliver AI services that the general public can genuinely experience." He added, "KT will strengthen cooperation among participating companies through the Eum Alliance and enhance business execution capabilities to realize AI services that people can truly experience in everyday life."
