LG and Nvidia Partner to Develop AI Models, Expand EXAONE Ecosystem in South Korea

Gate News message, April 22 — LG Group and Nvidia announced a partnership on April 22 to jointly develop new AI models and expand the EXAONE ecosystem, as part of South Korea’s government-backed “Proprietary AI Foundation Model” project.

The collaboration will integrate LG’s EXAONE large language model with Nvidia’s Nemotron open ecosystem to create domain-specific models. EXAONE 4.5, unveiled by LG in early April, features 33 billion parameters and operates under a non-commercial license, limiting its use to research and education; commercial deployment requires a separate agreement. The partnership also leverages Nvidia’s NeMo framework for model development and training.

South Korea’s sovereign AI initiative, backed by approximately $358 million in government funding, aims to build globally competitive AI capabilities by 2027. The project includes plans for a 120,000-GPU data center in Paju and national deployments of over 250,000 Nvidia GPUs across sovereign clouds and AI infrastructure, positioning state-backed models to compete through regional language optimization and specialized enterprise applications such as technical document analysis.

Recently, multiple users have found that the Anthropic website appears to have removed Claude Code from Pro (20 USD/month) and instead made it available under Max (starting at 100 USD/month). The official statement says this is only a test aimed at about 2% of new prosumer registrations, and existing Pro and Max users are not affected. This move is seen as a re-evaluation of the cost and pricing strategy for high-consumption features; in the future, such features may be separated from mainstream plans and move toward higher-tier, tiered pricing.
