TricoLogic, an AI startup originating from the University of Tokyo (HQ: Osaka, Japan; CEO: Akimasa Nishio), has announced that CEO Akimasa Nishio will serve as an instructor for the 'Kan-Dai Recurrent+' program operated by Kansai University.
Under the theme 'Secretaries aren't just for presidents!! Build your own personalized AI secretary!!', this hands-on workshop is designed for business professionals to build their own AI agents (digital assistants). The event will be held on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, starting at 19:00, at Kansai University Umeda Campus, KANDAI Me RISE.
■ Background of the Workshop
With the rapid advancement of AI, tools such as ChatGPT have become widely accessible. However, many business professionals struggle with the reality that although they have touched upon these convenient tools, they have not yet integrated them into their daily workflows.
Many workplaces face the common issue of losing time to tasks like email processing, task management, and information organization, leaving little time for the creative work or face-to-face communication that should be their priority.
This workshop aims beyond teaching how to operate AI; it aims to have participants build their own AI agents that operate with an understanding of their work's 'context', 'background', and 'priority'. It is designed as a turning point in one's career, shifting from being replaced by AI to becoming someone who 'utilizes and employs' AI.
