The Korean general economic weekly magazine "Maekyung ECONOMY" celebrated its 45th anniversary and held a generative AI star event on the 25th of this month at the Seoul JW Marriott Hotel with the theme "AI for Profit in the AGI Era."
The conference was held in collaboration with tech startup 42Maru. The "AGI Conference 2024" is a forum where participants will learn about how generative AI technology, which has emerged in Chat GPT, is now being applied to medical, financial, manufacturing, and marketing fields.
"Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)" is bringing about innovations in various fields such as computing, computing power, and other fields, and is having a major impact on human life in general.
The theme of the event was "AGI: The Artificial Intelligence of All Ages." AGI is now a technology that mimics human intelligence and integrates a variety of cognitive functions. It includes everything from problem solving to learning, understanding, and reasoning abilities.
In addition, AI has gone beyond simple technological innovation and is now at a stage where it is already producing real business results in various companies.
