According to AI TIMES, the government said on August 27 that it will accelerate the release of 100 types of public data with major ripple effects and allow 37 types of public works to be used for AI training. It is shifting from an initial plan to open the data in stages through 2028 to a plan to move forward through 2027, making clear its intent to expand data supply needed to develop sovereign AI models. The discussion centered on keeping public data from remaining merely an internal administrative resource and broadening its use across the private sector. The government plans to move up the opening schedule through consultations with the agencies that hold the data, and to convert works free of copyright and personal information issues into usable forms to improve access for companies. It also called on each ministry to review the opening status of the works under its jurisdiction and to push ahead with regulatory changes at the same time. The key point is to use the data accumulated by the public sector as a foundation for AI competitiveness and turn it into actual services and industrial applications.
Perspective
This move shows that public data policy is shifting away from a simple race to post disclosure results and toward how quickly assets that can be directly used for AI development can be released. In particular, moving up the opening schedule and broadening the scope of training use is meaningful because it can reduce the time and uncertainty private companies spend acquiring data, changing both development speed and the way it is used. Ultimately, the key will be execution rather than declarations, and whether quality and usage conditions are improved enough to be felt on the ground will determine the next level of competitiveness.
