Today at the Hanwha Future Technology Research Center in Pangyo, I ran an in-house AX adoption workshop for the CEO and executive team of Hanwha NxMD. The core of an AX workshop is always the same: "An AX project only works when leaders are on board." So I first shared industry AX cases, trends inside the group, and stories from the AI training·consulting projects I have led myself, then moved into group workshops to identify AX project priorities.
What stood out was the kind of AX projects the executives proposed: B2B market research automation, RAG-based internal knowledge search, an internal chatbot, and back-office automation. But as the discussion deepened, the real obstacle wasn’t technology. It was group-level IT policy and security guidelines. In an environment where agentic AI is blocked, the question kept coming up: "So what can we do?" 'An sLLM + RAG running in an on-premises/private environment?', 'AI for non-sensitive tasks on personal devices or a department Mac mini?', 'Redesigning work processes to be AI Ready?'
