[AI utilization example] What is AI (artificial intelligence) that makes work more efficient?

AI (artificial intelligence) has been rapidly developed in recent years and is often featured in the media. Did you know that AI technology is beginning to be incorporated into offices?

Here, we will first introduce what kind of work AI (artificial intelligence) exerts its power, and then briefly introduce what the power can actually be used for.

What are the strengths of AI (artificial intelligence)?

The first strength of AI (artificial intelligence) is that it "learns by itself." AI machine learning, especially deep learning technology, has enabled computers to learn image and voice recognition, prediction, classification, and even description as humans do. It was.
Therefore, unlike the conventional method that is programmed only for the situation assumed in advance, the learned AI responds flexibly to new problems and issues.

In addition, because AI is a machine, it can continue learning and processing 24 hours a day. By leaving it to AI for tasks that take a lot of time when done by human hands and simple tasks, it can be done with much higher accuracy and speed than humans. Within a company, it's groundbreaking to be able to focus on more valuable work by reducing human error and increasing productivity.

AI solves nursery school allocation work in just a few seconds!

In 2017, a demonstration experiment using AI was conducted in Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture. The content is to improve the efficiency of admission allocation work for nursery schools using AI. Since it is necessary to maximize the various desired conditions from the applicant, a lot of effort was spent on this allocation work even in cities, wards, towns and villages other than Saitama City.

In the past, it was a large-scale work that took about 30 staff members for more than a week, but as a result of improving work efficiency using AI, it has become possible to allocate thousands of children in just a few seconds. The result of the allocation was as complete as that by humans, demonstrating the accuracy of the allocation by AI. It is expected that this method will be used in various other fields in the future.
