Kakao to end Kanana after 17 months, shifts AI focus to KakaoTalk

Kakao will end its standalone AI service Kanana about 17 months after launch, closing its app and PC services on Oct. 15. The company will wrap up AI experiments run through a separate app and use the technology and user feedback gained in other AI services, including KakaoTalk. Users can back up chat data until Oct. 14, while generated images must be saved individually. After closure, user data will be destroyed under relevant laws and privacy policy.
