Abstract

This study analyzed the determinants influencing competitiveness of artificial intelligence industry of Korea. Analysis showed that the factors having the greatest influence on the national competitiveness of the artificial intelligence industry were, in decreasing order of importance, R&D, capital, and ICT competitiveness. Given the capital-intensive characteristic of the artificial intelligence technology, it is important to enhance the national R&D capacity in artificial intelligence technology and ICT, and to make substantial investments in the establishment of related infrastructure. Considering that the development and utilization of ICT infrastructure serves as the basis for artificial intelligence technology, the high standards of Korean consumers are expected to have a positive catalytic effect on the acquisition of national competitiveness for the artificial intelligence industry. For companies to respond in a timely manner to the rapid dissemination and high impact of artificial intelligence technology, they must prepare for such advancements by improving their competencies.

본 연구에서는 Porter의 다이아몬드 모형에 입각하여 관련 분야 전문가들의 의견 수렴을 통해 우리나라 인공지능 산업의 국가 경쟁력에 영향을 미치는 요인들에 대한 중요도를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 인공지능 산업의 국가 경쟁력에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요인은 연구개발, 자본, ICT 기술 경쟁력 순으로 나타났다. 인공지능 산업은 자본집약적 특성이 강한 하이테크놀로지 산업이므로 국가경쟁력 확보를 위해 무엇보다 인공지능 기술과 그 기반인 정보통신 기술에 대한 국가 R&D 역량의 결집과 인프라 구축을 위한 공격적인 투자가 중요할 것으로 판단된다. 인공지능 기술의 근간을 이루는 ICT 인프라 및 활용역량 등을 고려할 때 국내 소비자의 높은 요구수준은 인공지능 산업의 국가 경쟁력 확보에 긍정적 촉매요인으로 작용할 것으로 예상된다. 또한, 인공지능 기술은 빠른 확산속도와 강한 파급력을 지닐것으로 전망되므로 적시 대응을 위한 기업의 선제적 역량확보가 필수적일 것으로 사료된다.
