OpenAI has announced that AI agents are assuming a larger role in the daily operations of Korean firms, as the company's workplace and coding tools gain popularity and businesses increasingly utilize AI for research, coding, and other tasks. Kim Kyoung-hoon, the General Manager of OpenAI Korea, revealed that the number of users at local companies and institutions utilizing ChatGPT Enterprise has surged approximately 28 times over the last year.
He stated that while initially, human intervention was required for tasks assigned to AI, the company is now entering an era where AI can be trusted to handle more complex assignments. According to Kim, the weekly active users of ChatGPT Work and the coding agent Codex have increased about 14 times in the six months since March.
In August, Work and Codex contributed to 64 percent of output tokens generated by Korean users across ChatGPT's products, despite having a smaller user base than the standard version.
