'Da-uri GPT', an AI service developed by South Korea's Ministry of Employment and Labor, received the grand prize ('daesang') at an administrative innovation competition hosted by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, recognizing the government-developed generative AI tool for its contribution to human resources and organizational innovation.
Da-uri GPT is a generative AI service developed and operated by the Ministry of Employment and Labor to support internal administrative work, including drafting documents and handling human resources-related tasks. The tool reflects a broader push across Korean government ministries to adopt large language model (LLM) technology in day-to-day administration.
The service was awarded the grand prize — the highest honor — at the human resources innovation category of the administrative innovation competition. The awarding of the top prize signals official recognition of the ministry's in-house AI development effort among government entries.
The recognition comes as Korean government agencies move to integrate AI into public administration, with several ministries developing or deploying their own LLM-based services. Details of Da-uri GPT's deployment scale and future expansion plans were not provided.
The claim that the Ministry of Employment and Labor's AI 'Da-uri GPT' won the grand prize at the human resources innovation competition is True.
