He will advise on the application of AI technology to the #mobility industry, strategies to overcome the current limitations of AI technology, and the excavation of new AI-based business opportunities.
“We look forward to working with Professor Cho to explore ways to incorporate AI technology in the #mobility industry,” said Jeong Hee Kim, Vice President and Head of AIRS Company. “Hyundai and #Kia will continue to develop innovative technologies and cooperate with diverse global institutions to become a frontrunner in the future #mobility industry.”
