Kakao Mobility Outlines Level 4 Autonomous Driving Plans

Kakao Mobility unveiled its roadmap for developing Level 4 autonomous driving technologies, presented by Kim Jin-kyu at the World IT Show in Seoul. This initiative is a key part of the company's broader physical AI strategy, emphasizing in-house capabilities for future mobility services.
