masterpieces such as “Angel Beats!” and “Assassination Classroom,” and Hiroaki Inoue, founder of the legendary anime studio Gainax and executive producer of AiHUB. This one-day-only special discussion will feature creative minds from different walks of life—anime director, idol, and producer—discussing the future of entertainment with AI from their own perspectives. • Talk Session Information Date: Saturday, October 4th, 4:00 PM – 4:40 PM Theme: Anime & Idols x AI – The Dawn of a New Era in Entertainment Booth Exhibits AiHUB will offer a wide range of content at this event. First, you can try out “Sali,” the interactive AI virtual human that received a great response on a TV program aired on Fuji TV. In addition, “Pinyokko Productions” will be introducing a new photo session experience for the AI era, “Pinyokko Gram Photo Session.” This project uses the latest generative AI technology to create multiple variations of a single photo, including costume changes and character transformations. This allows models to earn ongoing income and gain personal branding opportunities by having their photos turned into merchandise and sold after a single photo shoot. Fans can also enjoy a more free and in-depth “oshikatsu” experience through special AI-arranged photos and limited-edition merchandise. On the day of the event, we will also be exhibiting and selling actual generated artwork and merchandise created from the photoshoot. Please stop by.
