I studied film aesthetics at university and once aspired to be an anime director or manga artist. However, in Japan at the time, "being able to draw" was a prerequisite, and positions for specialized screenwriters or division of labor hardly existed, so the path to fulfilling my dream was closed. I didn't give up and submitted scripts, but without results, I joined an advertising agency. Since then, I have always questioned why, in a country so rich in manga and anime, it is so difficult to pursue these dreams. Times have changed, and with YouTube and social media, an environment where anyone can become a creator has emerged. Now, my mission is to use AI to unlock the potential of people who have dreams like I once did and spread them to the world. Building distribution infrastructure handling huge traffic, search engines managing hundreds of thousands of books, and the difficulty of deploying AI models in production environments—all these challenges lead to a future where creators around the world can express themselves freely.
From a "generation that had to give up on dreams" to a "generation where anyone can take on a challenge." We are trying to build that bridge through technology.
