説明を展開
The ₩100 trillion (~US$71.5bn) public-private AI fund was announced in 2024, with government seed (KDB + IBK and other policy banks) plus chaebol matching from Samsung, SK, Hyundai, Naver, Kakao. Scale equals roughly 3.7% of Korea's 2024 GDP (vs Singapore's direct government AI commitment at less than 0.4% of GDP). Use of funds: (1) AI compute / data centres; (2) large-model training; (3) AI semiconductor R&D; (4) AI startup financing. Assessment: Korea ties "national AI strategy" to "chaebol industrial consolidation" — fiscal subsidies + chaebol orders form a positive feedback loop. But it is essentially capital cycling between large corporates; estimates suggest only 5-10% reaches local AI startups, squeezing the ecosystem. Singapore's open-hub path costs far less but also has far less amplification.
