Why Korea\'s homegrown AI chips are not reaching market as software tool gaps hit on-device NPUs

Korea-made on-device AI semiconductors have reached global-level hardware performance but are failing to clear the commercialisation hurdle because of software barriers. Domestic NPU chips often drop out at the proof-of-concept stage because software development kits, compilers and related tools are not mature enough for customers to run them.
