2023/9/19
  • Upstage develops ‘Sebasi AI Counselor’ chatbot based on its AI chatbot ‘AskUp’

  • Providing customized, specialized natural language-based consulting services based on Sebasi’s lectures and educational content.

  • “WE WILL EXPAND THE SCOPE OF VARIOUS LLM-BASED APPLICATIONS WITH THE WORLD’S BEST GENERATED AI TECHNOLOGY.”


(Upstage = 2023/9/19) ‘AskUp’, Korea’s best Chat AI service developed by Upstage, provides educational content recommendation and consultation services in collaboration with Sebasi.

Upstage announced on the 19th that the educational content company 15 Minutes to Change the World (hereinafter referred to as 'Sebasi') developed 'Sebasi AI Counselor' using its AI chatbot 'AskUp' technology. AskUp, which Upstage operates through KakaoTalk, is leading the popularization of AI by exceeding 1.4 million users in Korea.

SEBASI IS A CONCERT-TYPE LECTURE BRAND THAT STARTED IN 2011, AND IS CALLED “KOREA’S TED” AND HAS PRODUCED NUMEROUS STAR SPEAKERS. ADDITIONALLY, WE WORK WITH COMPANIES AND ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE A VARIETY OF LECTURES AND EDUCATIONAL CONTENT FOR A BETTER WORLD.

UPSTAGE INSTALLED ITS AI CHATBOT ON THE SEBASI WEB AND IMPLEMENTED A 'SEBASI AI COUNSELOR' THAT CAN HAVE NATURAL LANGUAGE-BASED CONVERSATIONS RELATED TO SEBASI'S VARIOUS LECTURES AND EDUCATIONAL CONTENTS. YOU CAN DIRECTLY ENTER THE CHAT WINDOW THROUGH THE CHATBOT LOGO (“ASK SEBASI AI A QUESTION!”) AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SEBASI WEBSITE.

FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU ENTER THE PROMPT “TELL ME ABOUT POPULAR LECTURES,” SEBASI AI COUNSELOR WILL PROVIDE DETAILED INFORMATION SUCH AS POPULAR LECTURE TOPICS, SPEAKER INFORMATION, AND LINKS. USERS CAN ASK ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS BASED ON THE CONVERSATION OR EASILY EXPLORE THE VARIOUS LECTURE CONTENTS PROVIDED BY SEBASI THROUGH NEW CONVERSATIONS.

This is the first time Upstage AskUp has been installed for corporate use. In particular, Sebasi AI counselor learned internal lecture content data and improved user-customized experience by reducing the hallucination phenomenon that creates false information compared to general-purpose models. Upstage's fine tuning and prompt engineering know-how was added to further enhance usability.

PREVIOUSLY, UPSTAGE DEVELOPED ITS OWN MODEL 'SOLAR' (HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS SOLAR) BASED ON THE WORLD'S BEST LARGE LANGUAGE MODEL (LLM) TECHNOLOGY THAT SURPASSES CHATGPT'S MAIN MODEL, GPT-3.5. SOLAR IS A 'PRIVATE LLM' THAT SPECIALIZES IN LEARNING INTERNAL CORPORATE DATA AND PREVENTING INFORMATION LEAKS AND HALLUCINATIONS, AND HAS RECENTLY STARTED TAKING STEPS FORWARD BY COLLABORATING WITH MAJOR COMPANIES SUCH AS CONNECT WAVE AND LOTTE SHOPPING. IN THE FUTURE, UPSTAGE PLANS TO USE THE SOLAR MODEL TO EXPAND THE LLM APPLICATION AREA SPECIALIZED IN VARIOUS DOMAINS, INCLUDING NOT ONLY AI CHATBOTS BUT ALSO CUSTOMIZED MARKETING AND AI-BASED CUSTOMER CONSULTATION.

KIM SEONG-HOON, CEO OF UPSTAGE, SAID, “IN COLLABORATION WITH SEBASI, WE HAVE SET A SIGNIFICANT MILESTONE BY BEING THE FIRST TO APPLY UPSTAGE’S GENERATIVE AI SERVICE IN THE EDUCATIONAL CONTENT DOMAIN.” HE ADDED, “IN THE FUTURE, UPSTAGE WILL UTILIZE THE WORLD’S BEST LLM SOLAR MODEL TO PROVIDE DOMAIN-SPECIFIC GENERATIVE AI SERVICES. “WE WILL EXPAND IT TO ALL INDUSTRIES,” HE SAID.
