LG Uplus partners with Google to launch new AI agent

According to South Korea's Yonhap news agency, LG Uplus - one of the country's major carriers, has just launched a new artificial intelligence (AI) agent called ixi-O AI Assistant.

This is a product in collaboration with Google, integrating the latest large language model (LLM) and search technologies of the American corporation.

The South Korean company said the ixi-O AI assistant is built on Gemini 2.5 Flash Live, Google's latest LLM model, which enables two-way text and voice interactions with the Gemini chatbot with low latency.

This AI agent is also integrated with Google Search to provide more accurate and up-to-date answers, with quotes from verified sources.

Based on the combination of LG Uplus's own AI model with Google's LLM, the ixi-O AI assistant can summarize phone conversations, assist in sorting, and make conversation suggestions based on those summaries.

Additionally, this AI assistant can also understand the context of the call in real time and provide relevant information when needed. When the user says “Hey, ixio” during a call or presses the call button, the AI will join the conversation to find information and share the results.

LG Uplus said it will collect user feedback through beta testing until the end of this year, before fully rolling it out from the first half of next year.

In addition, the Korean company also plans to expand its cooperation with Google into the field of actionable AI, aiming at the ability to not only provide information but also automatically perform tasks and make decisions based on new data.

LG Uplus also said it plans to introduce AI agent subscription packages later this month, bundled with Google One, an expanded storage service across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos./.
