  "summary": "The American Chamber of Commerce in Korea (AMCHAM) and Speakeasy Labs, developers of an AI-powered language learning platform, recently organized a forum to explore the role of artificial intelligence in developing a globally competitive workforce. Titled \"The New Workforce: How AI Is Powering the Next Generation of Global Talent,\" the event gathered senior executives, human resources leaders, and business decision-makers to discuss how AI is transforming talent development, workplace communication, and cross-border collaboration. Key speakers emphasized the importance of effective communication, AI literacy, and cross-cultural collaboration in driving sustainable global growth as Korean companies expand overseas. AMCHAM vice chairman and Qualcomm Technologies' senior vice president and president for Asia-Pacific, Kwon Oh-hyung, and Connor Zwick, co-founder and CEO of Speakeasy Labs, delivered opening remarks, stressing that technology alone does not drive transformation, but its real value emerges when people have the skills and confidence to utilize it.",
