AI in Public Services

The evolution of Korea’s civic management, tracing back to the Joseon Dynasty’s record-keeping culture, has culminated in comprehensive digital modernization. Today, real-time AI systems accelerate traditionally slow services; they utilize computer vision and reinforcement learning to manage transport, predict energy needs, and accelerate responses in healthcare and disasters. While this speed grants significant societal advantage, the global consensus recognizes inherent risks: the deployment necessitates urgent attention to algorithmic fairness, data intrusion, and transparency. Securing the future of this digital leadership demands robust risk management that prioritizes human rights over growth alone.

What you will learn in this video:

• Korea’s journey from traditional record-keeping to modern AI-driven public services
• Specific AI techniques used in transport, energy, and emergency management
• Critical risks in algorithmic fairness, privacy, and transparency
