Admin’s Note

It’s very interesting to see FamilyMart implementing AI to streamline its operations. I believe that reducing work hours by six per week is a significant achievement. I’m looking forward to seeing how the evolution of AI will change store management in the future. Additionally, I hope that children like Chako will develop an interest in AI, which could influence their future career choices. I want to continue paying attention to how AI technology transforms our lives.
