First Habit Joins MIT CSAIL, Validating Global AI Tech Prowess

**Education AI Startup Firsthabit Joins MIT CSAIL Alliances, Earning Global Recognition for Its Technology** Education AI startup Firsthabit (formerly Sumjae) has officially joined the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) Alliances, a body of the highest global authority, thereby demonstrating its technological prowess on the global stage. This membership is regarded as a symbolic event, officially recognizing Firsthabit's AI technology as being at the global top tier. MIT CSAIL, comprising over 1,500 researchers and more than 60 research groups, is the heart of AI research, leading practical problem-solving and technology commercialization through industrial collaboration. Firsthabit was invited to these Alliances, having been highly recognized for its unique educational AI technology and practical application capabilities developed over time. Moving forward, Firsthabit will closely collaborate with CSAIL Alliances member companies and accelerate the advancement of education-specific AI technologies, including achievement analysis integrating structured knowledge systems with LLMs, and real-time tutoring. Furthermore, it will take the lead in building innovative next-generation learning environments by combining AI with immersive technologies such as IoT, wearables, and robots. In particular, Firsthabit's core technology, the ontology-based education AI model ‘CHALK AI’, serves as the heart of the ‘CHALK 3.0’ platform, which is currently under development. ‘CHALK’ precisely models the complex relationships between learning concepts, analyzes learners' thought processes, and based on this, provides hyper-personalized learning solutions, thereby maximizing learning effectiveness. A Firsthabit official stated, "Joining the MIT CSAIL Alliances is a significant milestone in realizing our vision of AI-driven educational innovation," and emphasized, "Through collaborative research with global AI research leaders, we will dedicate our utmost efforts to developing optimized solutions that preserve the essence of education while leading the global market."
