LG launches AI graduate school as Koo Kwang-mo urges people-first tech

LG Group opened its first in-house artificial intelligence graduate school on Wednesday, with Chairman Koo Kwang-mo stressing that advances in AI must ultimately serve people and improve everyday life. In a congratulatory letter marking the launch of the new graduate program, Koo said technology should never exist as an end in itself but should be used to create meaningful value for people. “Technology should be a warm tool that designs people’s smiles, not a goal in itself, and it must ultimately serve people and improve everyday life,” Koo stated.
