May 29 (Asia Today) -- OpenAI held its first corporate leadership event in South Korea, bringing together executives from major Korean companies to discuss how artificial intelligence can be adopted and scaled across business operations.
OpenAI said about 130 business and technology executives attended the Exec Summit held Wednesday in Seoul. The event focused on the practical application and expansion of enterprise AI.
The summit was held under the theme "Intelligence at work" and focused on how AI can move beyond personal productivity tools and operate inside corporate systems, data and business processes.
OpenAI said that shift is already accelerating in South Korea. Weekly active users of ChatGPT Codex in the country have increased tenfold since the beginning of the year, and more than half of Codex requests in South Korea now come from non-development work, including writing, analysis, research and operations.
