Samsung Electronics said Tuesday it will fundamentally transform its work processes and corporate culture by fully integrating artificial intelligence (AI) across its operations.
The initiative is aimed at helping the tech conglomerate take a leading role in the AI era and seize new growth opportunities.
Under the plan, chief executive officers of Samsung affiliates will directly lead management innovation by applying AI to eight core business functions.
"We must completely change the way we work and transform our organizational DNA," Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong said in his New Year's message. "We need to incorporate AI across the entire business value chain, from research and development to manufacturing, marketing and support functions."
