KT is launching 'Token Factory,' an AI platform that integrates over 500 domestic and international AI models, allowing users to select and manage usage and costs in one place. The service launches on October 30 for enterprise customers, with a personal version expected in March next year. KT claims the platform can cut token usage and costs by up to 25% through prompt compression and model routing, and it will not answer questions containing personal information. KT's Lee Jin-hyung said, 'We will run models directly on GPUs in our data centers to produce tokens and generate revenue,' noting that brokerage fees are not the main business model. Korean media highlight this as the first commercialization of the 'token economy' among telecom operators, with Yonhap and Chosun Ilbo reporting the launch and strategic shift.
