On August 24th, Naver's conference 'Dan 23' was held at the Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas in Samseong Station. ‘Dan 23’ is a place where Naver announces its future direction. Dan is the name that expresses the platform in pure Korean.
At the conference, Naver announced ‘HyperclovaX’, which will be the foundation of generative AI. We provide new opportunities in a wide range of areas, from Naver services to corporate services. We plan to improve the productivity of existing work and create an ecosystem that enables various personalization by becoming an AI platform.
In terms of user experience, we unveiled 'ClovaX', a conversational AI service. Based on 'Hyperclova We can also provide investment proposal or interview practice for you. It also provides a good explanation of King Sejong's MacBook throwing incident.
It provides skills that provide the optimal answer according to the topic of conversation, discovery that saves conversations you want to remember, and a connector that connects to your own documents to have a conversation. This is a useful function when interpreting the information you have and finding answers.
We also unveiled ‘CUE:’, a generative AI search. It is said that it understands questions with complex intent and provides three-dimensional search results with reliable and up-to-date information. It interprets questions like a human and provides appropriate results such as Naver knowledge encyclopedia and blog documents. It is said that efforts were made to minimize ‘lies’, a drawback of existing generative AI. Q: is scheduled to be applied from November. In addition, we plan to introduce advanced AI to commerce, advertising, shopping, reservations, reviews, maps, etc.
It seems like Naver has finally solved the AI problem that it has been struggling with for a long time. Amid the anxiety that generative AI would transcend the limitations of countries and languages, I felt that they were considering how to provide an experience with better value.
Services like ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion emerged to provide the experience of machines talking and drawing like humans. However, it is not yet advanced enough to revolutionize search and productivity. Will Naver be able to create innovations that can monopolize value during this turbulent time? We look forward to seeing whether Naver, which has led Korea's Internet environment with green windows and intellectuals, will once again change people's lives with AI technology in the future.
