South Korea’s Ministry of Science and ICT announced a partnership with AMD to establish an “AI Center of Excellence” [1]. The facility aims to develop an open AI computing infrastructure platform [1]. This project focuses on heterogeneous computing to support generative and agentic AI development [1].
The research center will integrate various hardware components, including central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) [1]. It also plans to incorporate South Korean domestic neural processing units (NPUs) into the ecosystem [1]. This collaboration seeks to create a more versatile environment for advanced artificial intelligence technologies [1].
