Strategies by major companies joining the government’s “AI for Everyone” project are taking shape, industry sources said. While all plan to start with a general-purpose chatbot, they differ on how to combine models and connect to existing services. SK Telecom plans a full-stack approach centered on its A.X K2 model and 생활 agents linked to finance, transport and healthcare. Kakao plans to use KakaoTalk touchpoints with LG group support. KT is pursuing a multi-LLM approach with several domestic model developers. East Soft, Xenon and MKD also submitted proposals.

As AI changes how people work, speaking rather than typing is taking a bigger role, with tech startups increasingly using voice to interact with AI assistants. The Wall Street Journal reported engineers at Ramp use gaming headsets to speak to AI, while Gusto co-founder Edward Kim encourages staff to try dictation tools. Etiquette in shared offices is becoming more important. Competition is intensifying among AI dictation apps, and Google has added an AI dictation feature, Rambler, to Gboard.
