President Kyung Kyehyun: "Samsung Will Sell Solutions in the AI Era... Will Contribute to the AI Ecosystem"

"In the era where artificial intelligence (AI) is fully underway, Samsung must become a company that provides solutions, not just sells components (semiconductors). With the mindset of what needs to be done to achieve this, we are preparing for the future."

Kyung Kye-hyun, President of Samsung Electronics' Semiconductor (DS) Division, recently spoke about the AI era Samsung envisions under the theme "How Samsung Electronics Semiconductor Welcomes the AI Era" on the internal communication channel 'WeTalk'.

President Kyung said, "The world is entering an era of rapid innovation driven by AI or robots," adding, "It is a critical moment for Samsung as a business."

He quoted Ray Kurzweil's book The Singularity Is Near, saying, "There is talk that by 2045, a $1,000 machine will have intelligence equivalent to all of humanity, and it doesn't seem like a lie. That era has arrived."

He also reminded that the faster the memory, the higher the performance and efficiency of AI. In this regard, he emphasized the significance of the high-bandwidth memory (HBM) that Samsung is developing.

President Kyung explained, "Samsung must contribute to the AI ecosystem for the future," and "We are contemplating what Samsung must do to sell solutions in the AI era." He added, "What is important is a consistent mindset," urging, "Let us all unite to overcome difficulties in the process of building a much better company in the future. Let us not be bound by the past. Let us look at how we can develop and participate together."

Meanwhile, President Kyung recently categorized the company's current efforts into four major areas: ▲Changing organizational culture ▲Adapting and evolving ▲Envisioning the future with global customers ▲Preparing for the future.
