Thanks to technological advances, human life is becoming smarter day by day. One can now handle work, shop, and access information with just a flick of a finger, anytime and anywhere. You can also find information you are curious about or operate home appliances and smart devices just by using voice commands. You can also translate and communicate in 200 languages around the world in real time. This hyper-connected era is driven by the unfolding intelligence revolution, transcending time, space, and language.

At the center of this smarter daily life exists artificial intelligence (AI). Although it still has many limitations, such as vulnerabilities to unlearned tasks and variables, ambiguity in ethical norms, and limitations in functionality, AI continues to be upgraded to surpass its existing limitations.

UNIST, which is at the forefront of cutting-edge technologies, has made AI its core research area since 2019. UNIST is striving to develop cutting-edge AI technologies and cultivate key talents with initiatives, such as the establishment of the Graduate School of Artificial Intelligence, launching an AI Innovation Park, and holding an AI Technology Open Workshop.

What kind of future lies ahead with the challenges and development of AI to overcome its limits?
Furthermore, what directions should we take and what values should we focus on in creating the era of AI?
