Kunimoto: “The area that is growing the most with deep learning is image analysis and image domain.
Face recognition technology is widely used in China, and it is another form of image analysis. The AI boom is now being called “tertiary,” and the accuracy of image analysis is improving enormously. With facial recognition and images, there is a part like the human eye that has been created, along with the ability to immediately catch the number and identify the offender, even in automated driving.

Even to improve the accuracy of facial recognition, facial data is needed to train the system. In some rural areas of China, where there is still a huge gap in poverty, it is common for people to provide data on their own faces and receive goods based on that data. The information itself is their asset, and they are also selling it.

In simple terms, we can see how people by gender, what kind of demographics frequent a store, what kind of things they buy, when they return a product after picking it up, etc. By obtaining such data, we can implement more sophisticated marketing measures in stores. It is said that the reason unmanned stores in China became popular was not because they wanted to increase the number of unmanned stores, but because they wanted to collect data on their customers}.
