  "summary": "The Korea Times Global Conference held a panel discussion titled \"Beyond AI: Building human-centered leadership for next era,\" where education experts and industry leaders urged universities to fundamentally rethink their roles in the age of artificial intelligence (AI). The focus was on shifting higher education from traditional knowledge transmission to cultivating human-centered skills such as critical thinking, ethical responsibility, and problem definition. Panelists emphasized that universities need to quickly update their courses and try new approaches to keep pace with rapid technological changes. The session, \"The human edge of AI: Reimagining global competitiveness in Korean universities,\" highlighted the importance of integrating technology into education, research, and the overall student experience, while also maximizing human capabilities that AI cannot replace.",
