Sisa Journal e covered the 10th AI International Forum (AIF 2024) on September 12 at the Grand Hyatt Seoul, where Genesislab CEO Lee Young-bok gave a talk on “Enterprise Decision-Making in a World of Generative AI Agents.”
Lee’s core message was singular: “Future enterprise competitiveness will come from generative AI agents.” He projected the AI market would reach around KRW 200 trillion by 2027, and added: “Only the companies that move fast will stay competitive.”
The talk walked through the technical anatomy of an AI agent. LLMs provide broad language capability but come with gaps in factual accuracy and contextual grounding; RAG fills those gaps by connecting the model to external knowledge bases. On top of that, AI agents automate complex work by cycling through four steps: understanding the question, planning, using tools, and iterating.
For Genesislab’s first deployment, Lee pointed to HR. “We’re building an AI interviewer agent in HR.” The path extends beyond hiring — training assessment, promotion selection, and offboarding — using video-based analysis of non-verbal behavior and competency signals. LG, Hyundai Motor, Samsung, and government and municipal bodies were named as current customers.
The technical deep-dive and the rest of the forum’s sessions are covered in the original article.
