The Korea Information Society Development Institute (KISDI, President Sangkyu Rhee) held the second reading discussion session with Dongsung High School as part of its "AI and Digital Era Education Program."

The "KISDI–Dongsung High School Education Program" is a participatory educational initiative designed to help students independently explore social issues in the AI and digital era and consider potential solutions from a policy perspective. The program consists of 10 sessions, with Sessions 1–3 featuring special lectures by KISDI researchers and Sessions 4–6 focusing on reading discussions.

Session 5 followed the book café format used in Session 4, allowing students to freely exchange opinions. While Session 4 focused on "Autonomous Vehicles" and examined how AI technologies may change the transportation environment, Session 5 addressed "Job Competition with Machines," exploring changes in industries and employment resulting from advances in AI technologies.

Students discussed how advances in AI and automation technologies may affect existing occupations and future job opportunities. They also gave presentations connecting their career interests with AI technologies, explaining how AI could be used in their prospective fields and how they might respond proactively to future changes. The discussions provided an opportunity for students to consider their career paths in greater detail.

A participating Dongsung High School student said that exchanging views on AI with classmates had been a valuable experience and expressed interest in the upcoming sessions.

KISDI plans to continue the program with Session 6, which will focus on "Changes in Art in the AI and Digital Era."
