On the 3rd, the Gyeongbuk Office of Education launched the educational AI production center called ‘G-AI Lab’.
Since March, the Office of Education had been planning this project and, partnering with Naver Cloud, achieved results in just four months.
‘G-AI Lab’ is an online laboratory established with the purpose of producing teaching-learning and work tools through collaboration between AI and teachers, and distributing them to schools.
To this end, 40 researchers called AI accelerators, publicly recruited from among the staff of the Gyeongbuk Office of Education, are active, and their collaboration partner is Naver’s large-scale AI, Clova.
The accelerators train Clova, known as the AI most proficient in the Korean language, with various knowledge and functions, then develop tools in the form of APIs that can be used in school settings.
The developed APIs are converted into web-operable tools and provided for use in schools through platforms such as Gyeongbuk Office of Education’s ‘Onmusil.net’. Schools can utilize these tools and provide additional requests as feedback to the lab, which will improve and redistribute them, establishing a virtuous cycle.
Naver’s AI Clova is scheduled to launch an upgraded version called Hyper Clova in October, expanding the scope of educational applications and increasing the role of G-AI Lab, which is expected to contribute more significantly to school education.
Lim Jong-sik, Superintendent of Gyeongbuk Office of Education, said, “The system where AI and teachers create learning outcomes together, distribute them to the field, and then recycle feedback is the world’s first attempt. When Korea’s top AI technology combines with the domain knowledge of Gyeongbuk teachers, it will generate tremendous synergy and create new values and cases never seen before.”
