[THE INVESTOR] Samsung SDS on Sept. 5 launched Brity, a business-oriented artificial intelligence platform.

The IT developer said Brity is capable of understanding natural languages, serving as what it calls an “intelligent secretary” that can carry out duties requested by a wide range of clients.

Brity is also capable of understanding not only short sentences, but those with more complex structures. The program will analyze the intention of questions, eventually providing users with the right answers.

The Brity system can also switch topics and then return to the previous conversation. Accordingly, Samsung SDS said the program is significant as it understands the concept of context.

The AI program can converse with users both in written and spoken form. It can run on all platforms, including mobile messengers, such as KakaoTalk and LINE.
