Hyundai Motor Group is taking a step into South Korea’s artificial intelligence infrastructure market putting its industrial and technology businesses into a big data center project in Saemangeum. The project is part of the 9 trillion won ($6.74 billion) Saemangeum AI Valley, an industrial development that wants to bring together computing power, robotics, energy production and hydrogen making. This decision shows a step forward for Hyundai’s goals beyond just making cars and into the infrastructure that supports new kinds of AI applications. It also helps the big company build computing abilities that could change how it builds and runs its products.
