- South Korean AI startup Gensepark's CTO emphasized the shift from AI generating answers to AI autonomously managing entire work processes.
- Gensepark's AI workspace utilizes over 70 AI models to complete user-assigned tasks, transforming raw output into documents and presentations.
- The CTO highlighted that future AI competition will focus on the practical application of multiple AI models for real-world tasks, not just model development.
The artificial intelligence landscape is rapidly evolving, moving beyond AI simply providing answers to a stage where AI autonomously handles entire work processes, from setting goals to execution. This shift was highlighted by Kai Ju, co-founder and CTO of the U.S. AI startup Gensepark, during a discussion in Seoul.
Gensepark, which serves over 7,000 companies, operates an "AI workspace" that delegates tasks to AI agents. These agents select appropriate AI models from a pool of over 70, including ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, to perform the requested work. The AI then synthesizes the results into usable formats like documents and presentations.
AI is moving beyond the stage where humans re-process answers generated by AI, to a stage where AI autonomously leads the entire process from goal setting to execution.
Ju stressed that the future of AI competition will hinge on the ability to effectively leverage multiple AI models to accomplish actual work, rather than solely on the development of individual AI models. This practical application-focused approach is positioning Gensepark as a key player in the burgeoning global AI market, with South Korea showing significant growth potential.
The competition in the AI industry will increasingly depend on how well we can utilize various AI models to perform actual tasks, rather than just developing AI models.
