South Korea's Blue House Considers Measures Against AI Cheating in Tax Accountant Exam


The Blue House is taking steps in response to the admission of artificial intelligence (AI) cheating by the top scorer of the tax accountant exam.

With the college entrance exam scheduled for November 19, a meeting led by Policy Chief Ha Jun-kyung is being prepared to review countermeasures.

Im Kwang-hyun, head of the Presidential Secretariat, stated during a briefing at the Chunchugwan on November 15 that the Blue House is viewing the AI cheating incident in the tax accountant exam as "very serious."

He explained that, with the college entrance exam approaching next week, the government has been contemplating relevant measures. He also noted that similar cheating possibilities have been raised in relation to the accountant exam, as reported by the media.

Meanwhile, when asked about comments made by Democratic Party lawmaker Choi Min-hee regarding President Lee Jae-myung's opposition to the impeachment of former President Yoon Suk-yeol, Im responded that it was not appropriate to address that matter at this time.
