I thought to go to the exhibition of AI.

I thought to go to the exhibition of AI.
It has been a long time ago that introducing a POS in the distribution industry will produce results, but it is similar. After that, when it came to introducing POS, it was divided into where it came in use and where it could not be used. Even with the introduction of POS, there were places that went out of business or went out of business. POS makers were positive for the introduction, but they hardly understood how to use them, leaving it to the company where they were introduced. I hope that AI will not be the same thing.
When interviewed with AI companies, they say that there are few data scientists, but to be able to actually introduce AI and be able to produce results, while being fairly familiar with the industry site etc. to which it is introduced, while utilizing AI further If data analysis can be done and it can not be dropped to an action plan on the site, it will not be usable even if it introduces AI. Developing data scientists at this level is difficult. That’s because there are few people at POS manufacturers who can teach them to use the data when introducing POS.

I went to various exhibitions such as Retail Tech. . . After all it is feeling that payment type payment and uninhabited stores are going to go at a stroke while trial and error.

It seems that cashless settlement is entering the age of warring States for a while, such as promotion of various companies and introduction to shops, but from now onwards black ship will come out suddenly with different kind and unexpectedly different kind .

Well, until now, the transportation system such as Felica has worked hard, but depending on the future trend of smaho, it may be possible to assume that the power is dropped all at once. As consumers also learn, dare to choose a cheap SIM and SIM-free cheap smaho without contracting with the career so far, and as the career forcibly compels Felica counterparts It will be difficult to ask you.

SIM free There is almost no Felica in a cheap smartphone, and there is only one oppo R15 PRO of the previous generation that supports Felica with dual SIM, and its successor model does not come out either. Well, it is like feeling how much Felica is ignored from overseas in Galapagos.

Furthermore, reviewing the major mobile plan of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications Reflecting the communication · Terminal fee “Complete separation plan” and expanding the hardware in the transition to 5 G, etc. I think that I do not know what will happen to the carrier-led Felica installation so far I guess.

So it seems that various means of payment are appearing at this timing.

Activities for unattended stores also appeared quite a bit. It seems that Amazon gave way to a new era, but considering the lack of talent, the increase in foreign workers and the reform of work style, it seems that business types similar to unmanned shops will come out further in various industries and business types here and there I will. If we do not handle the cash at the store, the staff can return immediately at the time of closing and it is said that the cash register does not need anything like the one of the past so that the work system at the shop so far changed dramatically Let’s see. In addition, since it will come to be able to purchase and ship from inventory from the tablet, wasteful inventory of the store will not be needed, and customers familiar with sales staff will be able to handle themselves by themselves I guess.

So, I think that it is necessary to shift real VMD and signage up to now to a new dimension.

For example, from the delivered state, if you place it on the sales floor as it is, the era such as becoming VMD will become normal. It will happen that shipping centers that ship in a state that they can be used as they are in real shops by setting the VMD package with the assumption of cross MD with the advanced shipping center becoming sophisticated will be operating soon I guess it is.

This is the deciding factor of the omni channel.

Things to think with this year’s CP +

CP + is held at Yokohama Pacifico every year with cameras and photo video events. I always feel full of excitement, but the impression is that there are a bit of incongruity this past few times.
I myself went to see it and went to see photos and articles, but recently in most cases smartphones are enough. Of course take pictures with smartphones and post articles with smartphone and Bluetooth keyboard. Also fix the photo with smartphone software. Up to the site is from smartphone.
Smartphones are getting enough in the quality of the pictures in recent years. This year ‘s CP + was taken with a Leica camera of HUAWEI Mate 10 Pro. It’s an old smartphone but it’s enough for me. Other exhibitions also use OPPO R15 Pro and Xperia XZ Premium. It seems that there is a habit of photographs little by little, expert amateurs (like myself) are enough, and I think that most people who actually use normal cameras are using smartphones. In that case, I think that positioning of smartphone cameras is also important in CP +. It will be the idea of ​​the organizer how it will be taken in the future development, but I definitely want you to make a corner of smartphone camera. I think that there are various new projects.

AI I often see in exhibitions recently

AI I often see in exhibitions recently

I think that AI is somewhat impressive, but in short, in short, I think that it will be the correlation in the statistics. The data scientist may say that correlation is essential if it can be displayed visually clearly based on a large variety of explanatory factors and overwhelmingly large amounts of data.

However, at such a level no matter how much it will not be friendly to the user side. Because those who wish to utilize have diverse values, experience and understanding, and the position of the person who adjusts to it is the role of the data scientist side.

The data scientist, from the viewpoint of data analysis, in order to carry out the action plan after actually understanding by the other party while repeating the feedback with the opponent based on the analyzable data, and to advance the result further We must support.

Even if you make a mistake, there is no point in the data scientist that just inexperienced the scene or only won the opponent in smoke. Explanation from the standpoint of the other party is also the minimum condition. It is also essential to have experience on the site for quite a long time. It is also essential that you actually run the action plan and experience it again and again no matter where you adjusted

The side that executes the action plan must not become a robot. In addition, we must work hard in order to point out hypotheses and possibilities in the data scientist. There are also roles for people who are said to be the current data scientist (although I think that it is still too much in fact) to foster.

I went to the international hotel restaurant show.

I went to the international hotel restaurant show.

Problems with accommodations such as hotels and inns are to efficiently fill the rooms at efficient prices, but the industry is also required to utilize big data and use AI.

Administrators raised and lowered prices while watching something like a booking site if you used methods.

That is that AI will make judgment materials. It is a method of deriving pricing while merging data of other individual accommodation places, the number of accesses, the number of accesses,comparison sites and booking sites. I think that the photos and contents in WEB and SNS will change and the content of the proposed event will change so that it automatically and frequently becomes superior if it gets steadily higher.

As we can also evaluate accommodation on the AI ​​side, we will be able to differentiate and differentiate management efficiency while looking at the evaluation, enclosing what kind of customers as a result and enabling coexistence with the powerhouse to some extent It is amazing. This is up to the level up on the AI ​​side, but it is expected by providers of future solutions.

I will post pictures in other columns.

Exhibition business model

Exhibition business model

It is certain that it is much more efficient to look for new business partners than to run around like a long time ago. However, the exhibition is 3-4 days at the most. It is impossible for me to go to the exhibition relying on the attractiveness of the organizers.

Exhibition organizers also seem to be doing their best by utilizing the net, but there is no way that information will be continuously transmitted for each individual exhibitor. Although it is also pretending that it diffuses information by SNS, it is also in many places such as the number of followers such as 3 digits 4 digits etc. It is the level that we are doing once if we see it. Actually it is a level that has little effect.

Then it will be how far the store opens the store, but the effect of the business model of the exhibition will change greatly depending on the extent to which movement before and after the exhibition is carried out. The exhibition tends to be effective only for people who can visit during the meeting for only a couple of days but also to those who have grasped the timing to successfully negotiate among them, but at the actual crowded venues, they will deeply communicate at about business card exchanges It is difficult to do.

Therefore, it depends on how far and wide the depth and the extent to which the company that opened the store can deliver information by net utilization can be utilized before and after. Of course real sales are also important at the same time. There are many places that is hardly done in practice.
