SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won called on the company's subsidiaries to shift their focus towards artificial intelligence (AI) and expand their operations beyond chips, infrastructure, and energy. The strategy was discussed during a CEO seminar held in Icheon, Gyeonggi Province on Sunday, with Chey outlining the vision during a seminar that lasted from Thursday to Saturday.
Chey emphasized the significance of an "AI flywheel," a concept aimed at positioning SK as a leading player in a "token economy" where AI computing and services are treated as resources. He urged every subsidiary to redefine their roles, moving away from their traditional businesses and embracing AI services and the token economy.
According to this strategy, the AI semiconductor capabilities would help drive the expansion of AI factories, meet the rising demand for electricity, energy, and AI services. The competitive energy supplies and wider service adoption were expected to spur investment in AI factories and advanced chips.
