Baek Kyung-hoon says Upstage controversy can nourish South Korea\'s AI ambitions
Deputy Prime Minister Baek Kyung-hoon, who also serves as science and ICT minister, said allegations and public verification involving Upstage amounted to a healthy self-correcting process in South Korea’s AI ecosystem. He said innovation becomes stronger through transparent scrutiny and that an active public forum would help South Korean AI win global trust. The ministry is evaluating five teams in an independent foundation model project through Jan. 15.
