Established in 1971, KAIST has always been at the forefront of the nation’s
strategic technological advancements. It aims to foster elite Human Resources
in science and technology to support the rapid development and
industrialization of South Korea. As an educational institution, KAIST aims to
develop individuals who possess the will to pioneer research in new fields, a
desire to contribute to nation and society, but most importantly, upholds ethics
values while having great consideration for mankind and the environment.
“I would like to reaffirm that KAIST does not have any intention to engage in
development of lethal autonomous weapons systems and killer robots,” said
Kai Chul-Shin, the KAIST’s president. “KAIST values human rights and ethical
standards to a very high degree. I reaffirms once again that KAIST will not
conduct any research activities counter to human dignity including autonomous
weapons lacking meaningful human control.”
Moving forward, the mutual trust shared between KAIST, the research
community and citizens all over the world is of paramount importance to the
institution. Hence, we are planning to start newsletters and initiate a revamp of
our website. Both mediums will seek to engage the world with KAIST’s activities
and research development in hopes of establishing better understanding
between KAIST and the world.
