NCSoft AI Barco Controls Autonomous Driving Robot

NCSoft is advancing the technology of its self-developed artificial intelligence (AI) language model, 'VARCO Large Language Model (VARCO LLM),' the first of its kind among domestic game companies.

On the 12th, NCSoft announced that it signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Twinny, a company specializing in autonomous driving robots, encompassing comprehensive business cooperation including research and development of 'robot control solutions.'

The robot control solution is a technology where the LLM automatically translates commands given by humans in natural language so that the robot can execute those commands. Through VARCO LLM, NCSoft will assign various tasks to robots developed by Twinny and apply the series of processes performed by the robots back into LLM research and development (R&D).

Lee Yeon-su, head of NCSoft's NLP Center, said, "This joint research collaboration between the two companies demonstrates that LLM can create new value when connected with autonomous driving robots," adding, "Starting with the research and development of robot control solutions, we will explore possibilities for VARCO's vast knowledge to be utilized in a wider range of fields."
