The People Power Party has launched the 'Good Morning Policy Academy,' which will meet biweekly to discuss policy issues with experts in various fields. The initiative aims to strengthen the party's policy capabilities by incorporating expert opinions into its policy and legislative frameworks.
On September 30, the party's Yeouido Institute held the first session of the academy at the National Assembly, focusing on artificial intelligence (AI). This newly established academy features expert presentations followed by discussions to identify policy challenges in different sectors. The initiative was conceived in response to calls for enhancing the policy capabilities of party lawmakers.
The inaugural lecture was titled 'Policy Suggestions for the AI Era.' Former Minister of Science and ICT Lee Jong-ho participated, discussing topics such as AI and semiconductor competitiveness, infrastructure development, and the safety, ethics, and side effects of technological advancements. Future lectures are expected to continue focusing on AI.
Previously, the People Power Party has been working to integrate AI into its election strategies and policy development. During the June 3 local elections, it implemented an AI election strategy simulation platform called 'AI People Power.' This system analyzes public sentiment by segmenting a virtual voter panel, allowing for pre-validation of policy and issue response strategies.
Jang Dong-hyuk, the leader of the People Power Party, expressed hope that the Good Morning Policy Academy would serve as a solid foundation for enhancing the party's policy capabilities. He emphasized, 'No matter how correct and good our ideas are, they cannot change citizens' lives if they are not turned into policy.'
He also urged participants to consider what preparations are necessary for the changing society brought about by AI in future academy sessions, stating, 'I will provide thorough support and participate actively. I encourage all party members to join as well.'
