Decline in domestic PC demand inevitable; breakthroughs to be found through gaming laptops, network-isolated PCs, etc.
According to Korea IDC's (CEO Hong Yu-suk) preliminary analysis of the domestic PC market for the second quarter of 2016, PC shipments in the domestic market for this quarter are provisionally tallied at approximately 1 million units. It is analyzed that there are limitations to increasing shipment volumes due to weakened consumer sentiment and the burden from rising inventory levels in non-peak distribution channels. However, as the user base enjoying games with enhanced graphics, including Overwatch, has been increasing recently, interest in gaming notebooks is on the rise. As a result, products equipped with processors of Core i5 or higher and discrete graphics of GTX950M or higher are gaining popularity.

The Problem with AI is Not Performance, but Trust
CEO Kang Min-seung emphasized at Snowflake's World Tour Seoul that generative AI has entered a phase where "trust" rather than accuracy becomes the key competitive advantage. As AI is applied to various tasks including consultation, risk management, and operational automation, incorrect data, erroneous responses, and bias are creating actual business risks. He pointed out that enterprises must build a trust layer above AI. To achieve this, accurate data management, semantic structuring, governance, and prompt security are essential. He explained that AI is not merely an automation tool but a technology that reorganizes the entire organization's workflows and decision-making systems. Snowflake provides a platform that supports this trust-based AI operation, emphasizing that enterprises should build "trustworthy AI" rather than "intelligent AI."

The Decisive Factor for AI Agents in Finance: "Trustworthy Data Infrastructure"
The key to spreading AI agents in the financial sector is establishing a trustworthy data system. KB Kookmin Bank is operating over 100 AI agents by 2025 and is promoting expansion to 300. AI is automating repetitive tasks across various areas such as consultation, risk management, wealth management, and relationship management. However, if data quality, governance, and semantic structuring are insufficient, errors and risks increase. KB is building an AI-Ready organization through a multi-model strategy of GPT, Gemini, and Claude, as well as a Snowflake-based data system. The bank emphasized that AI has entered a phase where it restructures not just simple automation but the entire work process and decision-making system.
