  "account": "Korean AI startup Upstage announced on Tuesday that its advanced language model, Solar Pro 4, is now accessible to civil servants on the government's shared artificial intelligence (AI) platform. Civil servants can now utilize a locally developed AI model for their day-to-day tasks within the government's closed administrative network. The platform overseeing this initiative is operated by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety and the Ministry of Science and ICT. These ministries provide AI models, data, and development tools to both central government agencies and local governments through the platform.\n\nUpstage's Solar Pro 4 model is offered via FabriX, an AI agent platform created by Samsung SDS, Samsung Group's IT services division. The model operates on network infrastructure that has undergone a thorough security review by the National Intelligence Service, Korea's intelligence agency. Crucially, all internal government data stays within this network. The platform efficiently manages the graphics processing units (GPUs), the powerful high-performance chips essential for running AI models. This allows government agencies to access the model via a chat interface or application programming interface (API) without the need to purchase or lease their own GPU servers.",
