</p>


<h3>1. The History of Global Consulting 'Arthur D. Little (ADL)' and Its Ties to Korea</h3>


<ul>
<li>
<strong>ADL, the Origin of the Consulting Industry</strong><br>
Arthur D. Little (ADL) was founded in 1886 by MIT professor Little. It is the oldest global consulting firm in the world.
It provided project management for humanity's largest science and technology projects, such as the Apollo project.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Advisory Role in Korean Economic Development</strong><br>
During the Park Chung-hee administration, it consulted with the Korean government in establishing the Five-Year Economic Development Plan, suggesting directions for fostering heavy and chemical industries.
It made a significant contribution to Korea's modernization and industrialization.
</li>
</ul>


<h3>2. Economic Bankruptcy: A Realistic Threat to Everyone</h3>


<ul>
<li>
<strong>Concept Explanation</strong><br>
Economic bankruptcy is the moment when accumulated assets decrease and eventually run out because you spend more money than you earn.
It is defined as "My assets are dead, but I am alive."
</li>
<li>
<strong>A Concern for All of Us</strong><br>
Health and wealth are uncertain, but death and bankruptcy are clear to everyone.
In this era, all Koreans must consider how to stay away from economic bankruptcy throughout their lives.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Practical Strategies</strong><br>
It is difficult to overcome with individual will alone, because we are weak beings who repeatedly lie even to ourselves.
Continuous management through specific devices and actions is necessary.
</li>
</ul>


<h3>3. US-China AI Hegemony War: Full-Scale Competition & Supply Chain Reorganization</h3>


<ul>
<li>
<strong>Advanced Competition Centered on AI and Blockchain</strong><br>
The US and China have begun a permanent competition over artificial intelligence, blockchain, and data technologies.
In particular, they are aiming for a super-gap in AI semiconductors, cloud, and manufacturing innovation.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Massive Supply Chain Shift</strong><br>
The US is accelerating decoupling from China. It is reducing China's share in the production and supply of key core materials such as semiconductors, AI chips, and advanced technologies.
China is also actively promoting the internalization of its supply chain system.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Permanent Structural Shift</strong><br>
Expectations of 'restoration after Trump' have disappeared. The US-China hegemonic rivalry has entered an irreversible structure beyond one phase.
Supply chain, market, and national strategies all need to be interpreted within this framework.
</li>
</ul>


<h3>4. Palantir and Manufacturing OS Innovation</h3>


<ul>
<li>
<strong>Palantir, a Game Changer in Manufacturing?</strong><br>
Palantir, which provides a data-centric manufacturing OS (operating system), is emerging.
It is attempting to explosively improve productivity and efficiency by combining AI, data, and ontology technologies.
Major domestic companies such as HD Hyundai Heavy Industries are also accelerating innovation by introducing Palantir.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Innovation Speed Accelerates with ChatGPT</strong><br>
Palantir's AI automation and integrated management capabilities are explosively spreading as they are combined with ChatGPT technology.
It is a driver that makes manufacturing reshoring a reality in the United States.
</li>
</ul>


<h3>5. Implications and Challenges for the Korean Economy</h3>


<ul>
<li>
<strong>Korea Needs a New Strategy</strong><br>
It is necessary to read and proactively respond to megatrends such as the global hegemonic economy, supply chain reorganization, artificial intelligence revolution, and data strategy.
It is emphasized to have a mid- to long-term survival and growth manual.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Opportunity in Crisis</strong><br>
The criteria for wealth are changing in this environment. Crisis management and innovation capabilities will determine future success.
Both companies and individuals need scenario planning and strategic investment.
</li>
</ul>
