NVIDIA detailed how LG AI Research is now offering API access to its K-EXAONE-2.5 model, which was developed using NVIDIA's Nemotron datasets, including a collection of seven million fully synthetic Korean personas grounded in official government statistics. The announcement, part of a broader look at agentic AI security efforts in Korea, also mentioned Hyundai Motor Group exploring NVIDIA's NemoClaw and OpenShell frameworks for building AI agents. Separately, security firm AIM Intelligence is combining its Starfort technology with OpenShell, pairing OpenShell's sandboxed environment controls with Starfort's ability to detect malicious instructions and prevent data leakage. Together these moves point to a growing ecosystem in Korea focused on both expanding access to capable language models and building safety guardrails around autonomous AI agents before they're deployed in sensitive corporate settings like automotive manufacturing.
