SEOUL, May 29 (AJP) -South Korean artificial intelligence company Saltlux introduced its latest suite of AI technologies on Thursday, showcasing ambitions to gain a stronger foothold in the intensifying global AI race.
At its 20th annual AI conference, held at GS Tower in Seoul, the company unveiled LUXIA 3, a next-generation AI model comprising three core components: LUXIA3 LLM for language generation and understanding, LUXIA3 Deep for advanced reasoning and decision-making, and LUXIA3 VLM for processing unstructured data.
The system, according to company executives, represents a significant step toward autonomous AI capabilities beyond conventional chatbot functions.
The centerpiece of the presentation was the official rollout of Goober, Saltlux’s AI agent platform. First previewed in 2024, the platform has since been refined with a faster interface and an expanded feature set, including automated podcast creation and customized content delivery through services like “Weekly Goober” and “Daily Goober,” which push updates to users via email and text.
Saltlux highlighted Goober’s “deep research” function, which integrates reasoning and real-time data aggregation to generate analytical reports.
The platform is capable of producing documents exceeding 20 pages by synthesizing insights from over 100 high-quality sources, including proprietary research and institutional databases.
“AI agents will revolutionize not only how we interact with machines, but how value is created across entire industries,” said Lee Kyung-il, Saltlux’s chief executive, during the keynote address.
He warned that automation was already reshaping labor markets, noting that more than 300,000 software developers had been laid off in the United States over the past 18 months due to advances in AI.
The conference also featured demonstrations from Diquest, a Saltlux subsidiary, which presented applications of AI agents in content production, customer service, and even emotional communication.
In the afternoon, industry partners including Samjong KPMG, translation company DeepL, and AI chipmaker Rebellions shared real-world case studies of Saltlux’s technology in use.
Saltlux said full coverage of the event would be made available for streaming on its official YouTube channel.
