AI is now being utilized everywhere. It can draft emails, provide real-time translations during meetings, and instantly retrieve the information we need. With these advancements, AI technology is becoming a key companion that enhances efficiency and makes our daily lives smarter.
LG Display recognizes AI as a core driver of its Digital Transformation (DX) initiative. Rather than focusing solely on large-scale system upgrades, the company aims to improve the way each employee works. By integrating AI into repetitive tasks, LG Display seeks to reduce unnecessary time consumption and maximize productivity. To this end, LG Display is collaborating with LG AI Research and LG CNS to develop and introduce the industry’s first ‘AI assistant’. Let’s explore how this initiative is helping LG Display create even greater value for its customers!
The Future of DX Innovation!
Enhancing Workflows with AI assistant, Powered by EXAONE
You might be wondering what kind of system it is and how powerful its performance is. ‘AI assistant’ is an AI-powered automation solution built on LG AI Research’s generative AI model, ‘EXAONE.’ Seamlessly integrated with LG Display’s work systems, it offers customizable solutions tailored to specific needs.
Especially, the ‘EXAONE 3.5’ model has demonstrated exceptional performance, ranking first below edge category on the global leaderboard of Hugging Face, the world’s largest AI model sharing and evaluation platform. Despite fierce competition, EXAONE surpassed numerous global rivals to secure the top spot.
Revolutionizing the Workday! Achieving Efficiency with ‘ AI assistant’
Built on a powerful AI engine, AI assistant is expected to revolutionize not just task automation and productivity, but the entire work process. By reducing routine tasks, it allows employees to focus more on creative and strategic work. For example, when unread emails pile up, the system organizes and summarizes them based on priority, helping users save time. During meetings, it provides automatic translation and summarizes minutes, making it easier to draft meeting notes. The AI-powered document creation feature also streamlines the process, enabling intuitive and efficient creation of drafts, tables, and images.
LG Display’s DX Innovation: Embracing a New Era with ‘ AI assistant’
As the display industry is a key national strategic sector, security management is particularly critical, leading to limitations on the use of external AI models. So, LG Display has internalized the LLM(Large Language Model), which serves as the foundation for AI, thereby preventing any potential information leakage to the outside. Furthermore, the service was built as a plug-in into the existing internal intranet system, ‘Let’s,’ enabling seamless integration within the existing infrastructure. This not only enhances convenience but also allows LG Display to save over 10 billion KRW in costs by developing the service in-house, compared to subscribing to external AI assistant services with similar functions. The AI assistant increases daily average work productivity by approximately 10% compared to the previous period, and by enhancing the utilization of the AI assistant, LG Display plans to increase work productivity by more than 30%.
“By maximizing personal work productivity with the introduction of personal AI assistants, we are able to reduce simple tasks and focus more on creating differentiated customer value by strengthening our AX (AI Transformation) capabilities.”, said Byung-seung Lee, Head of DX Group at LG Display.
LG Display’s journey with AI assistant has just begun! We hope this opportunity has helped you become a little more familiar with it. In the next part, we will return with vivid examples of how AI assistant is being implemented in actual work scenarios.
