[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Pyeonghwa] SK Hynix announced on the 20th that it will hold an AI Challenge for Biodiversity using artificial intelligence (AI) to raise awareness of environmental protection. The event, conducted in collaboration with Microsoft (MS) and the Forest and Sharing Foundation, is accepting applications from individuals or teams (up to 5 people) until the 30th. Anyone aged 14 or older can participate.

SK Hynix will operate two leagues in this challenge: the Data Analysis League and the Idea Proposal League. The Data Analysis League involves creating AI analysis models necessary for responding to climate change and conserving biodiversity through predictive analysis and deriving implications. The data used in the challenge is sponsored by Dong-A Science, which supports the purpose of biodiversity conservation competitions. The Idea Proposal League invites innovative ideas such as policy improvements and service models related to climate change without data analysis.

The total prize money for this challenge is approximately 26 million KRW. SK Hynix plans to expand this challenge into a biodiversity forum involving various stakeholders in the future to continue in-depth discussions.

Kim Yunwook, Vice President and Head of Sustainability Management at SK Hynix, said, "Through this challenge, we expect to create the eco-friendly social value (SV) that our company pursues," adding, "We will continue to carry out various activities to realize the values of environmental protection and coexistence in the future."
