The Ministry of Finance and Economy said April 29 it will run a “Generative AI Service Discovery Hackathon” from June 10-12 at the Narakioum Taean Training Center.
The event is aimed at identifying ministry-specific AI services to be built into the “AI-ONE platform” now under development. Organizers said the focus is on producing prototype results that can be applied to real work, rather than simple idea proposals. Services selected as top projects will be piloted and then reflected in the platform.
The ministry said it plans to use AI not as a basic support tool but as a core instrument for policy development and administrative reform. It also plans to introduce “agentic AI” to support key tasks such as taxation, state contracts, state-owned property and economic trend analysis.
The ministry said it aims to push AI transformation within the ministry while expanding AI use across the public sector to improve policy quality and public services.
Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Koo Yun-cheol called the hackathon “the opening signal of AI transformation that fundamentally changes how our ministry works,” adding that he hopes staff will actively use AI to deliver innovative policy results the public can feel.
