Seoul Flies Its Entire AI Supply Chain to San Francisco for a Week of Deal-Signing
South Korean President Lee Jae Myung landed in San Francisco on July 24 to open an eleven-day tour with the most concentrated schedule of AI diplomacy any head of state has attempted: back-to-back one-on-ones with the chief executives of Anthropic, OpenAI, Nvidia, and Broadcom, followed by a 150-person AI summit where Samsung's Lee Jae-yong, SK's Chey Tae-won, and Hyundai's Chung Eui-sun will sign memoranda with American big tech. Lee will unveil a San Francisco AI Declaration extending his government's three AI mega projects, a program in which physical AI and robotics carry much of the industrial weight. Korea is placing a state-orchestrated bet that its chaebol hardware base plus American compute equals a seat among the AI superpowers.
