The Korea Broadcasters Association’s Joint Prediction Survey Committee (KEP) apologised on June 11 after errors were found in gender and age analysis data during coverage of the June 3 local election exit poll. KEP said early voting estimate data were omitted in four areas handled by Hankook Research, with only election-day exit poll results reflected. It said final winner forecasts combined both surveys normally and stressed the issue was a polling firm mistake.

Kim Yong-yeon, a research fellow at LG Electronics' VS division, said the perception that large language models cannot properly handle mechanical engineering is collapsing. He said manufacturers are rapidly adopting agent AI and trust in AI answers has risen sharply. Kim said the essence of AI transformation is improving the quality of engineers' decision-making through workflow redesign, not simply adopting technology. He said LG Electronics analyzed processes across product development and redesigned them to reduce repetitive tasks.
