ESTsoft's AI announcer is being used for fair, efficient contractor selection assessments at a public institution!
ESTsoft (CEO Chung Sang-won), a company specializing in AI services, announced on the 6th that it is providing an AI announcer for use in the National Information Society Agency's (NIA) contractor selection assessments. NIA is an ICT specialist agency that addresses social issues through digital means, and is known for leading e-government initiatives such as 'Government24'. The AI announcer is intended to minimize routine, repetitive work for staff and improve efficiency across roughly 500 contractor assessments a year.
In other words, the AI announcer will handle the repeated assessment guidance and project briefings, so that project staff can focus on planning and running their projects. To that end ESTsoft will provide NIA with 'AI Studio PERSO', a package combining the IP (intellectual property) used as the AI announcer with the TTV (Text to Video) service needed to operate it.
Both sides expect the adoption of AI Studio PERSO to deliver ▲fairness in project briefings and ▲more efficient operation of assessment committees and better use of staff in NIA's contractor selection assessments. They also plan to extend it to other work requiring simple, repetitive explanation, such as new employee training.
Byun Kye-pung, Director of ESTsoft's AI Business Division, said: "A public administration body that carries out specialist technical assessments has now evaluated, selected and begun using ESTsoft's AI humans in earnest," adding, "We will highlight AI humans' strengths in delivering guidance impartially and accelerate the service's advancement so they are used across a wider range of public settings."
