Hyundai Names Ex-Samsung/NVIDIA Executive Kwon Jung-hyun to Head Autonomous Driving Center in Physical AI Hiring Push现代汽车任命前三星/英伟达高管权正贤执掌自动驾驶开发中心,加速Physical AI人才布局
- Hyundai Motor Group has hired Vice President Kwon Jung-hyun as head of the Autonomous Driving Development Center under its AVP (Advanced Vehicle Platform) division; Kwon most recently led intelligent robot development at Samsung Electronics and previously led autonomous driving software development and productization at NVIDIA, with experience spanning perception software, deep learning, machine learning and computer vision.
- The move follows Hyundai's earlier-2026 hire of Park Min-woo as President, head of the AVP division and CEO of subsidiary 42dot: at NVIDIA, Park built the autonomous driving perception organization and led mass-production projects with global automakers, and at Tesla he led design of the first "Tesla Vision" system, driving the shift from external-solution-based Autopilot to an in-house camera-based deep learning system.
- Both hires advance Hyundai's "Physical AI" strategy, which fuses software-defined vehicles (SDV), autonomous driving and robotics into a single technology system, with the group also recruiting additional talent from Tesla, NVIDIA, Apple and Samsung over the past month.
- 现代汽车集团任命权正贤副社长为AVP(先进车辆平台)本部旗下自动驾驶开发中心负责人;权正贤此前在三星电子主导智能机器人开发,更早前在英伟达负责自动驾驶软件开发与产品化,在感知软件、深度学习、机器学习、计算机视觉等自动驾驶核心AI技术上均有经验。
- 此次任命延续了现代今年早些时候的人事布局——朴珉宇出任AVP本部长(社长)兼旗下子公司42dot代表:他在英伟达组建了自动驾驶感知技术团队并主导与全球整车厂的量产项目,在特斯拉则主导了首代"Tesla Vision"的设计开发,推动Autopilot从依赖外部方案转向自研摄像头深度学习体系。
- 两项任命均服务于现代的"Physical AI"战略——将软件定义汽车(SDV)、自动驾驶与机器人技术融合为统一技术体系;现代上月还从特斯拉、英伟达、苹果、三星等公司陆续引进了其他人才。
