■ Background of the Speech and Generative AI Implementation at favy
Currently, the Japanese labor market is experiencing an unprecedented phenomenon since the post-war period: 'the effective job offer-to-applicant ratio is declining despite a non-recessionary economy.' The biggest factor behind this is said to be the rise of 'generative AI.' Companies are emerging that 'do not need to hire people in the first place' due to business automation.
For several years now, favy has provided all employees with chat-based generative AI accounts and has been implementing business reforms by fully utilizing generative AI, while regularly holding study sessions on AI utilization within the company.
As a result, favy has significantly increased sales with zero new hires (no increase in personnel).
In this seminar, favy's CEO Takanashi will speak and fully disclose 'the overwhelming productivity improvement through generative AI' practiced in-house. From how to categorize tasks to be entrusted to AI to organizational design that allows humans to concentrate on more creative work, practical know-how will be explained for business owners and HR personnel struggling with generative AI business implementation, and business leaders fighting for survival.
