It is vital that this technology be used to make up for the staff shortages that will accompany the nation's shrinking population and lead to better services for residents.

If a user types in,"I've fallen ill," on a holiday, the system displays medical institutions that are treating patients that day. Another expected advantage of this system is that parents and guardians are swiftly notified of the results of their applications, so families who missed out can quickly start looking for another day care centre for their child.

This fiscal year, the ministry is conducting a demonstration experiment on the use of artificial intelligence in Kitakyushu and other municipalities. The ministry plans to provide all local governments with a guidebook detailing the process of introducing artificial intelligence technology. As the nation's population continues to fall, it is anticipated that local governments will work closely in a wide range of areas.

If local governments can cap these costs through joint development, it should become easier even for municipalities with small budgets to weave artificial intelligence into their operations.
