Background
In November 2015, Fujitsu systematized its set of AI-related technologies, products, and services as Fujitsu Human Centric AI Zinrai, and since April 2017, has been offering products and services such as the Fujitsu Cloud Service K5 Zinrai Platform Service and the Fujitsu AI Solution Zinrai Deep Learning System. At the same time, Fujitsu has worked with customers in co-creation efforts and field trials due to numerous demands in utilizing AI.
Through these activities, Fujitsu received many questions from customers in a variety of industries, including manufacturing, retail, and finance, asking what they could achieve with AI, or whether their issues could be resolved with AI, or how much it would cost, in both time and money, to apply AI to a problem. This led the company to realize that customers had not specified scenarios in which they could utilize AI.
