South Korea's AI service specialist company ESTsoft Corp. announced on Tuesday that it launched its conversational artificial intelligence (AI) service Alan.
The name pays homage to the British mathematician Alan Turing, often regarded as the father of computer science. Alan is based on OpenAI's large language model (LLM) GPT-4.
According to the company, Alan can understand the intent of questions and induce natural conversations through responses that include up-to-date information. The responses also provide source information to reduce hallucination phenomena.
Alan also can analyze and summarise the information on a specific webpage when a user provides a link to it. The company plans to release a developer-only mode and add a conversational AI assistant function in early next year.
Eastsoft noted that Alan excels at identifying trends in specific markets and finding ways to solve problems.
