Generative AI startup 42Maru (CEO Dong-Hwan Kim) announced that it will participate in the '2025 AI Ethics Public Seminar' held at Yangjae L Tower in Seoul on the 27th and present policy and practical agendas after the enforcement of the Basic AI Act.
Hosted and organized by the Ministry of Science and ICT (Minister Bae Kyung-hoon) and the Korea Information Society Development Institute (KISDI, President Lee Sang-kyu), this seminar aims to explore the direction of AI ethics policies, which are becoming increasingly important along with the advancement of AI technology. The event will begin with opening remarks by KISDI President Lee Sang-kyu, congratulatory remarks by Kim Kyung-man, Director of the Artificial Intelligence Policy Office, and a keynote speech by Moon Myeong-jae, Chairman of the AI Ethics Policy Forum. This will be followed by a presentation on the ethical impact assessment of AI recruitment services by Director Moon Jeong-wook and a presentation on standard guidelines for private autonomous AI ethics committees by Deputy Research Fellow Kim Hwi-woong.
Forty2Maru CEO Kim Dong-hwan will participate as a panelist in a roundtable discussion, offering his opinions on the direction of the policy agenda after the implementation of the Framework Act on AI, as well as the challenges of securing AI reliability and social acceptance by the public. Experts from industry, academia, research, and the legal community, including CEO Kim Dong-hwan, attorney Kim Do-yeop (Kim & Chang), director Kim Myeong-ju (AI Safety Research Institute), division head Kim Yu-cheol (LG AI Research Institute), director Park Seong-pil (KAIST Moonsul Graduate School of Future Strategy), professor Lee Sang-wook (Hanyang University), and research fellow Lee Hyeon-gyeong (KISDI), will participate in an in-depth discussion on the topic of "Shifting the Agenda for AI Ethics Policy and Social Challenges."
During the discussion, CEO Kim Dong-hwan stated, "The AI ethics agenda will shift from 'principles and principles' to concrete 'responsibilities and implementation.'" He added, "The key is not regulatory compliance itself, but establishing AI ethics governance within an organization and implementing it practically on the ground." This suggests the need for companies to proactively ensure AI reliability and safety.
Forty2Maru mitigates the hallucination phenomenon of ultra-large language models with its RAG42 augmented search generation technology and MRC42 comprehension technology. It also develops and services the LLM42, a lightweight model specialized for specialized industries. The private mode for enterprises allows for safe AI utilization without the risk of internal data and sensitive information leaks, while also reducing solution deployment, training, and service costs.
CEO Kim Dong-hwan said, “While establishing an institutional foundation for AI ethics, reliability, and safety is important, fostering AI ethics awareness in civil society is even more important.” He added, “Forty2Maru will also take the lead in fulfilling its social responsibility to create a sound AI ecosystem based on technological reliability.”
