Abstract
This study analyzed the determinants influencing competitiveness of artificial intelligence industry of Korea. Analysis showed that the factors having the greatest influence on the national competitiveness of the artificial intelligence industry were, in decreasing order of importance, R&D, capital, and ICT competitiveness. Given the capital-intensive characteristic of the artificial intelligence technology, it is important to enhance the national R&D capacity in artificial intelligence technology and ICT, and to make substantial investments in the establishment of related infrastructure. Considering that the development and utilization of ICT infrastructure serves as the basis for artificial intelligence technology, the high standards of Korean consumers are expected to have a positive catalytic effect on the acquisition of national competitiveness for the artificial intelligence industry. For companies to respond in a timely manner to the rapid dissemination and high impact of artificial intelligence technology, they must prepare for such advancements by improving their competencies.
