ICT Governance Restructure Plan in the era of 4 th Industrial Revolution
Choong-Sik Chung · 2017
In Korea, the public sector has yet to widely introduce the new ICT that embraces AI. The reason for this is because the public sector hesitates to give up its bureaucratic force of habit gained from the industrial society while still remaining insensitive to the changes occurring in the smart AI-based information society. Accordingly, to cope with the revolutionary changes, it is necessary to actively introduce the smart AI technology to the administration, and, thereby, innovate the government. It is necessary for the next government to establish a new ministry that innovates the government administration through embracing AI and using ICT convergence as it lower infrastructure. Such ICT-based government innovation unit to be newly established must improve the current comprehensive foresight function and also convert the ICT convergence-based government innovation strategy into a presidential agenda, and, thereby, set it as a government project.
