No 21/9, i-KIET Issues and Analysis from Korea Institute for Industrial Economics and Trade

Abstract: On March 2, the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence (NSCAI) released its final report: a glimpse of the U.S. view of advanced industries such as artificial intelligence (AI) and semiconductors, as well as the direction of its related strategies. The commission urged a full-scale mobilization of government capacity to beat China for global supremacy in AI and other related advanced industries. American strategies for AI and other advanced industries are key constants to be considered in devising Korea’s industrial policy, and a national blueprint is needed to respond to such strategies. This analytical brief analyzes the main features of the NSCAI report and the implications carried for Korean industrial strategy and policy.
