HD Hyundai announced on the 26th that it will strengthen its strategic cooperation with global IT company Google Cloud to build a generative artificial intelligence (AI) platform. The company plans to accelerate digital innovation by applying generative AI across its businesses, including shipbuilding and construction machinery. Generative AI refers to AI technology that creates new content by utilizing existing original data such as text, audio, images, and videos.

Google Cloud offers various solutions, including the enterprise-customized AI platform 'Vertex AI.' For HD Hyundai, this means gaining opportunities to apply Google Cloud solutions across multiple industrial sectors.

Starting next month, the two companies will begin working on projects with significant business impact, including ▲ development of industry-specific AI solutions and services ▲ development of AI-based platforms to enhance customer digital experiences ▲ training of AI experts.

Since July, HD Hyundai has been collaborating with Google Cloud on a pilot project to implement generative AI services at the HD Hyundai Construction Machinery AS call center. The company plans to establish a mid- to long-term AI roadmap to lead work innovation and digital industrial transformation.

In January, HD Hyundai launched an AI-specialized organization called the 'AI Center' to review the development of HD Hyundai-specific generative AI. In September, it partnered with POSCO to develop smart unmanned technology, and in October, it worked with Germany's Siemens on building a smart shipyard.

An HD Hyundai official stated, "Combining the data accumulated by HD Hyundai with Google Cloud's generative AI technology will create great synergy," adding, "We will actively utilize generative AI in various areas to improve work efficiency and customer satisfaction."

Meanwhile, Philip Moyer, Vice President of Global AI Business and Solutions at Google Cloud, will participate as a keynote speaker at HD Hyundai's session at CES 2024, the world's largest consumer electronics and IT exhibition. CES 2024 will be held from January 9 to 12 (local time) in Las Vegas, USA.
