Latest on Korean AI startups? Curious which ones are promising

Yeah, generative AI is blowing up these days.

Healthcare has big regulatory hurdles. Hospital adoption takes longer than expected.

I think autonomous driving is still a long way off. Level 4 isn't perfect either lol.

Agree, this is a post worth referencing if you're preparing for a job change.

I'm curious too, please share some info.

There's definitely a lot of investment flowing into generative AI, but in the end, what matters is where you specialize. The ones with original technology last long.

From my experience in healthcare AI, persuading doctors is the toughest part. Even if the technology is good, considering it takes up to a year to get adopted, you need to plan for the long term rather than short-term profits.

There are startups in the autonomous driving space, but collaboration with automakers is likely to be dominated by large corporations, making it hard for startups to break in. Wouldn't it be better to wait and see?

I've actually worked directly in the generative AI field, and these days, the key to survival for startups is whether they have their own specialized domain. Companies that pick one area—like gaming, marketing, or education—and focus on it tend to attract investment and generate revenue. I believe it's more important to choose a practical niche rather than blindly pursuing AGI. If you're considering a job change, I'd recommend looking into companies that are specialized in a particular domain.

The healthcare AI market is large, but entry barriers are high. I've heard drug development has a high failure rate and it's tough to attract investment. On the flip side, diagnostic assistance is seeing more commercialization cases, so it's relatively less risky. A government fund has been set up too, so long-term opportunities might come. However, if you're thinking about immediate salary or benefits, it could be a bit disappointing.
