HCG to Hold HR AI Conference 'GROUND ONE'

Human Consulting Group (HCG) announced on the 28th that it will hold HR AI Conference 2026, "GROUND ONE." GROUND ONE is aimed at HR leaders and practitioners at domestic companies, including CHROs. The conference will focus on how HR work is changing in the AI era and aims to present new AIxHR operating standards.

The conference will be held through keynote speeches and sessions centered on reexamining the roles of people and AI. The speeches and sessions will cover the conditions for AI trust and use within organizations, preparation tasks for AI adoption, and the differences between general-purpose AI and HR-specific AI.

HCG plans to introduce use cases for its HR-specific AI agent, "elizax." "elizax" operates based on an organization’s HR data and work context. HCG will also present how it is improving HR operations efficiency through "elizax."

The event began with a welcome address by HCG CEO Park Jae-hyun and a keynote speech by Chief Product Officer (CPO) Bae Seung-ah. Bae Seung-ah CPO delivered the keynote under the theme, "Rewriting the Standard for AI×HR."

Bae Seung-ah CPO presented trust, completeness, and utility as the three core development standards for HR-specific AI. She then explained how elizax operates based on organizational systems and work context. In the subsequent Chat HRT session, AI adoption status and challenges were assessed based on a pre-event survey of HR practitioners. The session examined practical use cases that workers expect, such as work automation and decision support, as well as major concerns including trust in AI judgments and accountability.

The event also featured an AI agent showcase. The showcase demonstrated five AI agents: Assistant, Workflow, Talent, Performance, and Skill. The purpose was to present how elizax operates in response to the expectations and concerns identified in the pre-event survey.

The event also included demonstration plans covering the full range of HR tasks. The targeted tasks were responses to internal policy inquiries, task processing, talent search, performance management, and employee capability development. Each agent is expected to show how it works in an interconnected manner within a single system and data framework, while presenting the basis for its judgments and actions.

The next Agent session will be presented by Bae Seung-ah CPO. Bae Seung-ah CPO is expected to outline HCG’s future vision of expanding elizax’s five work agents and giving every organization member a "personal agent."

The event will also introduce how the personal agent carries out tasks. The personal agent performs work within its delegated authority, uses work agents, and communicates with other members’ agents.

Afterward, science communicator Orbit will deliver a special lecture as an external speaker. Orbit will speak on the theme, "In the AI era, how should people change?" After the speeches and sessions conclude, a dinner and networking program for HR leaders and practitioners will be held to encourage interaction among attendees.

HCG said it has developed its own AI technologies and philosophy based on its HR expertise to improve the accuracy and efficiency of HR work, and that this conference is a venue to unveil them. HCG said it will unveil the blueprints for elizax and the personal agent at this conference and use them to convey the direction of HR innovation it has been preparing.
