In addition, we have further developed the Rimawari-kun platform to better increase efficiency and use of big data for our investment platform-related purposes. By participating in this consortium, we can contribute to the promotion of the social implementation of image generation AI by promoting ideas achievements, ideas, and know-how of AI development.
