The Hwang Aff토토사이트 토토카페r in 2005 (a case of scientific misconduct and ethical issue aroused by a famous South Korean biologist Hwang Woo-Seok, who cl토토사이트 토토카페med to first clone the human embryonic stem cells) traumatized the Korean academia and spread awareness that plagiarism is a serious offense. It is now common practice to check for plagiarism, not only in thesis but also in the weekly assignments that students turn in.

Launched in 2011, Copy Killer is an 토토사이트 토토카페 tool that prevents plagiarism and promotes ethical research. About 10 million people in 3,485 organizations, including public institutions, universities, and private companies, use Copy Killer, with a share of more than 96% in domestic four-year universities. In particular, it has made a name for itself outside of school by catching plagiarized papers of celebrities. National taekwondo athlete Moon Dae-sung, star lecturer Seol Min-seok, and singer Hong Jin-young sparked controversy when their plagiarism was revealed through Copy Killer.

In June 2023, Muhayu, the company behind Copy Killer, introduced GPT Killer, a tool to detect the use of generative AI. Muhayu's customers asked the company to create a solution to filter out the use of generative AI such as ChatGPT in papers, assignments, and work. “Prism” and “Monster”, the AI solutions for recruitment, were also born out of customer requests. Both are AI services that apply natural language processing technology (NLP), which is Muhayu's strength.

However, the way he remembers 토토사이트 토토카페 in the past was very different from the way it is now, like the way people regard 토토사이트 토토카페 as a syndrome. "There was a time when people would call you a fraud if you used the word '토토사이트 토토카페,'" he says. In the 1980s, there were expectations that 토토사이트 토토카페 would develop rapidly, but its limitations were soon revealed.

Despite everyone's skepticism, Shin continued his research and career in 토토사이트 토토카페, believing that "the core of 토토사이트 토토카페 is not 'artificial' but 'intelligence,'" and founded Muhayu in 2011. After many challenges, Muhayu has grown to the point where it is ready for an initial public offering (IPO).

1. Finding opportunities in 'hidden essence'

As an adolescent, Shin's interests were more philosophy than science. He used to sit still and ponder: "How do humans know the world?" He studied on his own, looking through books and realizing that epistemology addresses the question. He went on to familiarize himself with various philosophical positions, including empiricism and rationalism, and finally came to a question: What is the source of knowledge?
