LG CNS to introduce 10 AI legal services in 2024
By Jeong Ho-jun and Lee Eun-joo, Pulse
- LG CNS Co., a digital transformation company under South Korea’s LG Group, is
poised to launch specialized legal services specialized for the legal sector in
2024 that will use generative artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze
precedents and draft legal documents.
The company currently offers six
generative AI services, and aims to expand its portfolio to include ten
services by the end of 2024, including specialized legal services, to solidify
its position as the top generative AI business organization in Korea.
Lee Joo-youl, vice president at LG CNS
Applied AI research, Lim Eun-young, director of generative AI business unit,
and Kim Kyung-il, professional leader of AI business, met with the Maeil
Business Newspaper and shared the company’s AI goals.
The AI Center, which LG CNS opened in
January 2024, comprises the AI Research Institute, Generative AI Business Unit,
and AI Business Manager, with over 200 AI experts.
“AI is evolving rapidly,” Lim said. “Integrating our research
and technology organizations is a move to propose and executive business
quickly.”
The Generative AI Business Unit
oversees generative AI businesses such as drafting document outlines and image
generation while the AI Business Professional Leader focuses on the AI Contact
Center business.
LG CNS plans to develop four new
services in 2024, including the Specialized Legal Service and Generative AI
Discovery, which support companies in introducing generative AI services from
the initial stage.
“The Specialized Legal Service includes policies such as
using generative AI for precedent analysis, providing legal information, and
drafting legal documents,” Lim said.
The company is also mulling
collaborations with law firms or legal startups.
The Center also offers a portfolio of
six generative AI offerings, including internal knowledge-based answers, visual
content creation, business support and automation, the Future Contact Center,
management decision support, and AI coding.
“We conducted over 20 Proof of Concepts (PoCs) in 2023,
introducing a service that learns from Ministry of Interior and Safety
documents to generate draft speeches and support Q&A,” Lim said. “This
service uses EXAONE, LG AI Research Institute’s Large Language Model (LLM).”
She noted that a smaller EXAWON model
is fine-tuned to use ministry data for tasks such as drafting speeches or
internal announcements, providing results within seconds.
LG CNS is also enhancing its future AI
Contact Center (AICC) business.
Kim, who is in charge of the project,
said that the financial sector is most enthusiastic about adopting AICC, adding
that “it has recently been actively adopted in the public and distribution
sectors.”
The AI research center comprises
language, vision, data and engineering labs.
Lee, who serves as the vice president
of AI research, noted that the company is researching multi-modalities
simultaneously to prepare for the future while advancing LLM technology. It is
focusing on multi-modal AI that understands various types of data, such as
images.
LG CNS has developed an
image-generative AI called DRAG.
“Moving forward, it will be an era of LXM that not only
includes language but also large multi-modal models (LMM), and large action
models (LAM),” Lee said.
“We plan to conduct research to provide a differentiated
customer experience using various LXM models,” he added.
