TwigFarm Consortium announced on the 19th that it has secured the Hyper-Giant AI Ecosystem Development Project, a public offering by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Information Society Agency (NIA).

The project aims to advance the AI industry and provide the foundation for a digital platform government in response to the proliferation of hyper-giant AI, including large language models (LLMs), and the increasing demand for AI applications. TwigFarm Consortium was selected for its expertise in LLM, multimodal-based models, lightweight large language models (sLLM) development, and data construction projects.

The advancement of AI technologies, such as the emergence of ChatGPT, has popularized the use of AI in everyday life. With the increasing need for concrete plans for building and utilizing hyper-giant AI models and the demand for AI infrastructure and data sharing from private companies, the necessity for an AI ecosystem has become evident. This project aims to accelerate digital transformation and enhance the competitiveness of the AI industry through the construction and opening of AI data.

Based on its experience with hyper-giant AI like LLM, TwigFarm Consortium will participate in five sectors: education (building data for problem generation based on video educational materials and LLM models), media and content (building data for understanding Korean videos and LLM models), legal (pre-training LLM and Instruction Tuning data construction and LLM models for the judicial sector), and transportation and logistics (building trip chain data and LLM models), Defense (AI Instructor Data Construction and LLM Model).

Furthermore, TwigFarm Consortium plans to complete the foundational ecosystem, including data, hyper-giant AI models, and application services, by this year. Through this, TwigFarm Consortium will contribute to the advancement of the AI industry and provide the basis for a digital platform government.
