SK Telecom Unveils AI-Driven Call Features for iPhones

Seoul, South Korea - SK Telecom (NYSE: SKM) has launched A.Call, an AI-enabled iPhone feature that supports recording its calls.

Why it matters: 

Since the Android operating system, users in South Korea have been unable to use the iPhone due to the lack of call recording capabilities. 

The alternative third-party call recording applications need to perform better. 

SK Telecom's new application could be a game changer in the market.

The Key Points

• The service provides call recording and AI-based summarization.
• It offers data categorization options such as "business," "daily," and "inquiry."
• The feature is only available to users who agree to the privacy terms.
• SK Telecom may introduce more AI-related services in the future.

What they say

Kim Yong-hoon, head of SK Telecom's AI Service Division, expects the feature to be well-received by iPhone users. 

The service aims to provide practical solutions for users who need call summaries and recordings.

What's next?

According to the company's recently updated privacy policy, future AI-based enhancements may be added to SK Telecom's service offering, demonstrating the company's ongoing commitment to AI investment.
