Investment follows years of production use, as Hyundai Motor Company and Kia's autonomous driving and robotics programs run on the VAST AI Operating System. VAST Data , the AI Operating System company, today announced that Hyundai Motor Company and Kia (HKMC) have made a strategic investment in VAST Data. The investment deepens a relationship that already includes development of HKMC's Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and robotics AI capabilities on the VAST AI Operating System (VAST AI OS). HKMC is not new to VAST. 42dot, HKMC's autonomous mobility division and global software centre, has been running ADAS research and autonomous driving workloads on the VAST AI OS platform in production. Before standardising on VAST, HKMC's ADAS and large language model programs sat on disparate platforms from different vendors, fragmenting data and duplicating effort as both programs scaled. 42dot consolidated these into a NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD powered by NVIDIA Hopper built on VAST, bringing ADAS and LLM development onto one data platform. As 42dot standardises its AI data structure and builds a Data Flywheel system, VAST accelerates model training and deployment processes. That consolidation is what the investment is built on. In production, the environment has delivered a 2:1 data reduction rate against real sensor and video data, along with the footprint and power efficiency...
