Shoeisha Co., Ltd. has joined note's GENIAC project as a new demonstration partner. This project is an initiative adopted under the "GENIAC" (Generative AI Accelerator Challenge) project, which promotes generative AI development, conducted by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO). Shoeisha is a publisher that has long disseminated highly specialized knowledge rooted in practical experience, focusing on publishing books and operating web media in fields such as IT, business, and design. Strongly resonating with the project's vision of building an ecosystem where creators and media can deliver content with peace of mind even in the AI era, Shoeisha decided to participate. In this participation, Shoeisha's highly accurate factual information, primarily from its books and web media in IT and business, will be utilized to verify a system where this information can be safely referenced (viewed) during the demonstration period through RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation: a technology where AI refers to external data when generating answers). It is important to note that this data will not be used for training generative AI, but only temporarily referenced when generating answers. This project is already building a prototype RAG database and is enhancing its accuracy through ongoing demonstrations using content from its partners. With the addition of Shoeisha's specialized expertise, the verification process towards building a distribution platform will be further advanced. About Shoeisha's Participation Shoeisha will participate in the demonstration in the following areas: Providing a portion of content data Cooperating in the verification of management functions for data holders (rights holders) Cooperating in the creation of legal and practical mechanisms (technical and practical verification) to balance the protection of publishing content rights with fair compensation for creators
