Polimill Inc. (Headquarters: Minato Ward, Tokyo; Representatives: Ayame Ito, Nonoka Taniguchi), a company driving the social implementation of generative AI, conducted an on-site introductory training session on June 2, 2026, for staff of Tamba-Sasayama City in Hyogo Prefecture, focusing on the use of QommonsAI (CommonsAI), a generative AI designed for local governments. Approximately 60 participants attended across morning and afternoon sessions, demonstrating strong organizational interest in AI adoption.

Training Overview

Municipality: Tamba-Sasayama City, Hyogo Prefecture

Curriculum: Introductory Level

Format: On-site event

Number of Participants: Approximately 60 total (around 30 in the morning, 30 in the afternoon)

Participant Profile: Primarily staff who volunteered to attend, rather than being assigned by departments. Participants ranged from junior staff to managerial roles.

High Motivation and Concentration from Self-Motivated Participants

This training was conducted on a voluntary basis, without mandatory departmental assignments. As a result, while the atmosphere was friendly, each participant demonstrated strong seriousness and enthusiasm.

At the start of the training, organizers noted, "Despite being voluntary, we had many staff members participate." During lectures, the presenters observed that attendees were consistently focused—so much so that eye contact was frequently made across the room. This highlighted the high level of interest in generative AI and the municipality’s overall eagerness to adopt the technology.

Acquiring Practical Prompting Skills Directly Linked to Real-World Operations

The training featured numerous concrete examples directly relevant to municipal operations. By systematically teaching prompt creation techniques and methodologies, participants evaluated the session as highly practical, stating, "We were able to learn content that is directly applicable to our daily work."

Comment from Organizer (Moriita)

"Many staff members in Tamba-Sasayama City already use generative AI in their daily work, and I was deeply impressed by their individual skill levels. That’s why what I want to emphasize next is the importance of cultivating both 'technical proficiency' and 'ethical responsibility as public servants' in parallel.

We will continue to work alongside the staff of Tamba-Sasayama City to ensure your organization remains one that naturally asks: 'Is it appropriate to include this content in a prompt?' or 'Can this document be uploaded?'"
