After KBTG that drove the organization to reach its goal 2 years earlier than planned to become a regional technology company. Recently, they announced their vision of wanting to continue for the next 3 years, aiming to expand the organization’s potential with AI by keeping humans at the center, called Human-first x AI-first Transformation. In the past, KBTG has developed AI and continuously create an ecosystem that complements partners
KBTG’s AI Ecosystem
Dr. Thadphong Phongthawornkamon, Managing Director, Kasikorn Business-Technology Group (KBTG) Said AI is becoming a multi-purpose technology. (General-purpose Technology) You may not see it with your eyes. But it is definitely everywhere. KBTG is considered another pioneer in the field of AI in the country and region, creating an AI Ecosystem in various areas, including continuous research with the MIT Media Lab since 2022.
Including designing technology such as face comparison systems (Face Recognition) and verifying real faces (Face Liveness) to be modern and easy to use. From the work of Face Liveness, KBTG is currently the only organization in Asia and the third organization in the world that has passed the Highest level certification (Level 2) from iBeta testing, which is an international standard. Ready to launch new technology FinLearn, an AI-powered education platform with real-time feedback.
In addition, KBTG has launched 2 AI platforms and services: AINU (Ainu), a pilot AI solution provider with advanced technology for identity verification, 3 prominent features are OCR (Optical Character Recognition), a data conversion system. From the Liveness Detection image, an identity verification system by scanning a person’s real face and Face Recognition, a facial comparison system for identity verification.

Meanwhile, on the investment side, KXVC has invested in AI startups and joined hands with the world’s leading AI fund, AI FUND, led by Andrew Ng, founder of DeepLearning.AI.
In the next 5 years, how will AI change the world? Through the perspective of developers, business people and investors.
Dr. Monchai Lertsuthiwong, Principal Research Engineer, KBTG Labs Said that the first thing is the matter of Generative AI, which is a very hot technology at the moment, including the Large Language Model (LLM) or the Large Language Model and the Large Vision Model (LVM) that can understand the content of the image, which within 5 This year it will grow quickly. Currently, if we look at just LLM in Thai, there are as many as 99 and we believe that in the future there will be more.
Next is a trend that the world is watching. The matter of applying AI to various industries Especially in the financial and health sectors. In the financial sector, what KBTG does with the MIT media lab is education in designing learning methods that are appropriate for each type of person. This allows learners to absorb as best they can at their own level.
As for the matter of health Many organizations are now using AI to help read X-ray films. Help you look at your history of fever and predict what diseases you will be at risk for in the future. There is also the matter of AI for Social Good and the prediction of Climate Change by using AI to help predict upcoming weather changes. which has an accuracy of not less than 50%.
These are mostly case studies that we see abroad. But for Thailand in the near future There is no escaping the issue of LLM and LVM, including the interaction between humans and AI and how it can be used to look seamless. People want to come back and use it again. And it feels like it’s not AI, but it’s part of life. and able to work together
while in the business perspective Dr. Charoenchai Bowonthamrat Senior Venture Director, KX Said that Thailand is currently in the process of applying AI (Adoption), especially in the financial and insurance industries. One thing that when meeting with a partner and what they are looking for is that AI will be able to answer business value needs (Business Value). ) and operational excellence (Operational Excellence) how will AI be applied to these matters first?
Although the use of AI in Thailand may lag behind other countries, But I believe that this year and next year, the adoption of AI in general organizations will greatly increase. And it is likely to be an exponential characteristic as well, especially in the B2B group that is looking for angles that create cost savings, make employees more efficient in their work, and bring Performance up.
In addition, anotherThe development approach of AI on the business side is that it will come in the form Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) that is easy to use and can be deployed quickly. Since every company cannot create AI in the same way, KXAI will grow in the form of SaaS as well.
sideKampanart Wimonnot Managing Director, KXVC As an investor, I think that AI can be divided into two perspectives, both in terms of technology and business development. The first is AI infrastructure that will be very important for development Because in the future modeling must be faster, cheaper and more accurate. This trend is now evident all over the world. Particularly in the United States, people from former AI companies are leaving to create AI startups, although this has been influenced by the high investment received by OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, which has led to a flurry of VCs. his money in this industry It is a good thing that new innovations are created.
In addition to the issue of infrastructure Another important thing that is indispensable is how will the people who use it sell products to reach the hands of customers and meet the needs of customers?
“So technology alone There is no way it will be successful, but there must be service to help customers develop themselves, whether it’s B2B or B2C, service must be involved in the beginning,” Kampanat said.
Therefore, in 5 years, it is seen that the world will completely change. And it changed much faster than we thought. It may even be that AI can suggest what kind of technology we should create.
