KT and Amorepacific have launched an artificial intelligence (AI) platform designed to turn more than 70 years of beauty research into searchable data, a move the companies say could dramatically shorten the time needed to develop new products. KT said Tuesday that it completed the Data Highway project, which integrated and redesigned data across Amorepacific's entire R&I Center to create an AI-focused research platform. The project began after KT won the contract in December and entered a strategic partnership with Amorepacific to modernize the company's research and development data. At the heart of the initiative is the conversion of millions of research and development records accumulated over more than seven decades into what the companies call AI Ready Data. KT said the structured data allows AI to understand and analyze research information without additional processing. The companies also introduced an AI assistant called LEMON, short for Lab Efficiency Mode ON, to help researchers search and analyze research data using natural language.
