Generative AI startup 42Maru announced that it held its first excellent researcher workshop as part of the ‘Generative AI Leading Talent Development Project’ at 42Maru’s Seoul headquarters on the 28th.
This workshop was attended by excellent master's and doctoral level researchers selected from major domestic AI graduate schools and FortiTumaru researchers, and had a time to intensively discuss the possibility of applying generative AI technology to solve on-site problems of demand organizations.
At the workshop, researchers from each graduate school presented the project topics they were researching and shared practical technology application plans that reflect the needs of requesting institutions. Key topics of discussion included: △ A researcher from Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) developed an artificial intelligence algorithm that can remove weather noise such as snow, rain, and fog from highway CCTV footage and identify accidents, reverse driving, construction, and fallen objects in real time; △ A research team from Inha University applied generative AI to automatically generate natural language queries from a graph-based database to extract information; △ A joint researcher from Inha University and Sungkyunkwan University proposed the implementation of a multi-agent system that can perform conference room reservations, changes, and drink orders in natural language using a super-large language model.
In addition, excellent researchers will analyze the requirements of the demand institution based on the graduate school research topic, establish a project schedule, and take on the research with a challenging attitude to solve the problems at hand. FortiTumaru will actively support their research activities, and in case of technical difficulties, they will cooperate with the demand institution and the research staff of each graduate school and utilize FortiTumaru's resources to solve them.
In the last session of the workshop, a discussion was held between Kim Dong-hwan, CEO of FortiTumaru, and excellent researchers (Kwon Dong-wook, Kim Min-kyung, Park Joo-bong, and Jo Hyeon-wook). At this meeting, students had a meaningful time freely discussing career paths and resolving their questions about actual industrial sites.
FortyTwoMaru is a generative AI startup that develops and services a lightweight model LLM42 specialized in specialized industries by mitigating the hallucination phenomenon, a shortcoming of ultra-large language models, through engineering with RAG42, a search augmentation generation technology, and MRC42, an AI reading technology. It supports private mode for enterprises, so you can safely utilize ultra-large AI without worrying about internal corporate data and sensitive customer information leaks, and you can drastically reduce the costs of solution construction, learning, and serving.
Fortitumaru CEO Kim Dong-hwan said, “This workshop was a valuable opportunity to directly communicate with key talents who will lead the future era of generative AI and to confirm their passion and potential.” He emphasized, “We will spare no support so that excellent researchers can solve problems in actual industrial settings based on their graduate school research topics and, furthermore, produce innovative results. We expect that this cooperation will contribute to further elevating Korea’s AI competitiveness.”
