Additionally, 15% of new employees reported using 4 to 6 AI tools, and over 2% used more than 7 AI tools. The most commonly used AI tool (multiple responses allowed) was 'ChatGPT' at 98%, followed by Clova X at 37% and Gemini at 28%.

On the 14th, new employees also presented the 'AI Agent' project during a 'Conversation with the Chairman' session held at Walkerhill in Gwangjang-dong, where they prioritized email processing and executed replies using AI, automating repetitive tasks to improve work efficiency.

Chairman Chey Tae-won, who listened to the presentation, advised, "If you consider how to utilize the work time saved by using AI agents, you will be able to design your work better."
