< Professor Alice Haeyun Oh >
Professor Alice Haeyun Oh will participate in the Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence (GPAI), an international and multi-stakeholder initiative hosted by the OECD to guide the responsible development and use of AI. In collaboration with partners and international organizations, GPAI will bring together leading experts from industry, civil society, government, and academia.
The Korean Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) officially announced that South Korea will take part in GPAI as one of the 15 founding members that include Canada, France, Japan, and the United States.
Professor Oh has been appointed as a new member of the Responsible AI Committee, one of the four committees that GPAI established along with the Data Governance Committee, Future of Work Committee, and Innovation and Commercialization Committee.

research KAIST researcher Se Jin Park develops 'SpeechSSM,' opening up possibilities for a 24-hour AI voice assistant.
<(From Left)Prof. Yong Man Ro and Ph.D. candidate Sejin Park> Se Jin Park, a researcher from Professor Yong Man Ro’s team at KAIST, has announced 'SpeechSSM', a spoken language model capable of generating long-duration speech that sounds natural and remains consistent. An efficient processing technique based on linear sequence modeling overcomes the limitations of existing spoken language models, enabling high-quality speech generation without time constraints. It is expe

research KAIST Develops AI to Easily Find Promising Materials That Capture Only CO₂
< Photo 1. (From left) Professor Jihan Kim, Ph.D. candidate Yunsung Lim and Dr. Hyunsoo Park of the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering > In order to help prevent the climate crisis, actively reducing already-emitted CO₂ is essential. Accordingly, direct air capture (DAC) — a technology that directly extracts only CO₂ from the air — is gaining attention. However, effectively capturing pure CO₂ is not easy due to water vapor (H₂O) present in the air. KAIST r
