We will provide Government AI GENAI to local governments affected by the Kumamoto earthquake.
- Published:
On the afternoon of Tuesday, July 28, a massive earthquake with a maximum seismic intensity of 7 occurred in Kumamoto Prefecture. We would like to express our deepest sympathy to all those affected.
Digital Agency has decided to urgently provide the "Government AI generative AI," a GENAI usage framework for government employees, to disaster-stricken local governments, related local governments, disaster response organizations, etc.
1. Purpose
When large-scale disasters occur, it is necessary to collect, organize, and share various types of information. As a result, work that far exceeds normal times is concentrated at one time. Therefore, disaster-stricken local governments, etc., can temporarily perform related work using the Government AI GENAI.
2. Timing
Starting around 11:00 on Wednesday, July 29th. Scheduled to end in about 3 weeks
