Problem

Employees developing automation tools spent time searching for programming guidance and resolving errors. A Gwangyang employee needed to automate a settlement task that was time-consuming and exposed to ethical risks.

Approach

POSCO launched P-GPT in September 2023 using OpenAI models in its private environment. Employees used it for coding assistance and internal-document questions. The Gwangyang employee used its model recommendations and scheduling guidance while developing an RPA tool.

Results

1 monthtime to finish an RPA development task previously taking 3 months, according to a POSCO employeeCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The reported development-time reduction came from an employee's account of a specific task. It was not a measured average across POSCO developers.
