[0010] Examples of an information processing device 20, an information processing method, and a program will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 5. The present invention is not limited to these examples, but is defined by the claims, and is intended to include all modifications within the meaning and scope equivalent to the claims.

[0011] [Outline of information processing system] 1 includes an information processing device 20. The information processing device 20 is operated by a service provider to provide a service to a user terminal 30 used by a user. The service is provided to the user via an application (hereinafter, sometimes simply referred to as an "app") installed in the user terminal 30.

[0012] The information processing device 20 generates some of the messages displayed on the user terminal 30 in conjunction with the provision of a service, using the generative model 14. The generative model 14 is a trained model of machine learning. When a prompt including an instruction for data generation is input, the generative model 14 is configured to create data according to the instruction and output it as a completion.

[0013] The generative model 14 may be a language model capable of editing or creating new sentences. The language model may be a natural language processing model trained using large amounts of text data. The generative model 14 may be a general-purpose large-scale language model applicable to any natural language processing task, such as information extraction, text summarization, text generation, or question and answering. In addition to language processing, the generative model 14 may be capable of performing other processes, such as computational or image processing.

[0014] In the present disclosure, an example will be described in which the information processing device 20 uses the generative model 14, which is a general-purpose language model that is not included in the information processing system 11. Alternatively, the information processing device 20 may be provided with the generative model 14, or the information processing system 11 may be provided with a computer that stores the generative model 14.

[0015] The information processing device 20 may be realized as a computer including, for example, at least one processor 21, at least one memory 22, and a communication IF 23. The following describes a case where the information processing device 20 includes one processor 21 and one memory 22. The communication IF 23 enables communication with other devices via a network.

[0016] The memory 22 stores a program 24 executed by the processor 21 and a database 25. The program 24 includes an application and an operating system. The processor 21 executes processing based on the program 24 to realize various functions.

[0017] [User device overview] The user terminal 30 may be realized as a computer including at least one processor 31, at least one memory 32, and a communication IF 33. The following describes a case where the user terminal 30 includes one processor 31 and one memory 32. The communication IF 33 enables communication with other devices via a network.

[0018] The user terminal 30 may be a mobile terminal such as a smartphone or tablet, or a wearable device such as a smart watch. The user terminal 30 may include a display 34, which is an output device. The display 34 may include a touch panel 35, which is an input device.

[0019] The memory 32 stores various data and programs executed by the processor 31. The programs include one or more apps. The processor 31 executes processes based on the programs to realize various functions.

[0020] The one or more apps may include a pre-installed app, a native app, or a web app. A pre-installed app is pre-installed on the user terminal 30 when the user purchases the device. A native app is installed on the user terminal 30 from an app store by a user operation. A web app runs on a browser when launched on the user terminal 30. A user operates these apps to use services provided through the apps.

[0021] The one or more apps may include a super app. A super app is an integrated app equipped with multiple functions. A super app is, for example, a native app. A super app includes multiple mini apps that use the super app as a platform. Each of the multiple mini apps realizes a different function. Each mini app provides a service to the user by realizing a corresponding function.

[0022] Mini apps are called child apps because they are attached to a super app. In contrast, the super app is called a parent app. Child apps are developed to run within the parent app, for example, based on a Software Development Kit (SDK) provided by the parent app's developer. The SDK includes, for example, programs and technical documentation for app development.

[0023] A parent app for providing the services of the present disclosure is, for example, an electronic payment app (hereinafter referred to as a "Pay App") for providing an electronic payment service such as code payment. Alternatively, the parent app may be, but is not limited to, a points management app for managing points or a shopping app for using an e-commerce site. When multiple parent apps are provided by the same administrator or by mutually affiliated businesses, the parent apps may be accompanied by different child apps or at least one of the same child apps.

[0024] Below, we will explain an example in which a user uses a service via a Pay App installed on the user terminal 30. The electronic payment service via the Pay App may be provided by the information processing device 20, but in the example of the present disclosure, the electronic payment service is provided by an electronic payment server (not shown). The electronic payment server may be included in the information processing system 11. The electronic payment server may be realized as a computer having at least one processor, at least one memory, and a communication IF, similar to the information processing device 20.

[0025] [User device display screen] As shown in Fig. 1, a home screen 40 of the user terminal 30 displays a plurality of icons 43. The plurality of icons 43 are operated to launch a plurality of different apps. The app launched by an icon 43 does not necessarily have to be a parent app, but for convenience, in the following description, an icon 43 displayed on the home screen 40 will be referred to as a parent icon 43. A notification badge 44 may be displayed on the parent icon 43 depending on the settings or functions of the corresponding app.

[0026] The notification badge 44 may be a notification dot displayed over the parent icon 43, a notification badge showing only a number, or a speech bubble that pops up from the parent icon 43. The notification badge 44 in this example is a speech bubble that displays a short message. The maximum character length for the message attached to the notification badge 44 of the present disclosure is 10 characters, but the maximum character length can be changed as desired.

[0027] 2 shows an example of a payment screen 50 that is displayed on the display 34 when the Pay app is launched. The payment screen 50 includes, for example, a payment code 51. The payment screen 50 includes, for example, a child icon area 52 following the payment code 51.

[0028] The child icon area 52 includes a plurality of child icons 53 for launching a plurality of child apps, respectively. Each child icon 53 may have a title to explain the corresponding function. One or more of the plurality of child icons 53 may be accompanied by a notification badge 54. The notification badge 54 may be, for example, a speech bubble emerging from the child icon 53, but the design thereof can be changed as desired. The display position of the notification badge 54 relative to the child icon 53 is not limited to being above the child icon 53, and can be changed as desired.

[0029] A notification message is attached to each notification badge 54. It is not necessary for all child icons 53 to be attached to a notification badge 54, but multiple notification messages are displayed in the child icon area 52. The notification message is, for example, text information of a specified maximum number of characters (for example, 10 characters) or less.

[0030] Each notification message includes a notification about the function of the corresponding child app. The notification may include, but is not limited to, information such as campaigns, events, special offers, new feature releases, version upgrades, or feature updates. The notification message may include characters, numbers, symbols, emojis, or images.

[0031] The pay app is accompanied by an arbitrary number N (N is a natural number equal to or greater than 3) of child apps. In response to this, a specified display number M (M is a natural number equal to or greater than 2 and smaller than N) of child icons 53 are displayed in child icon area 52. The specified display number M is set according to the size of child icon area 52. Hereinafter, child icons 53 displayed in child icon area 52 are referred to as initially displayed icons, and child icons 53 not displayed in child icon area 52 are referred to as hidden icons.

[0032] In the child icon area 52, the layout of the initially displayed icons cannot be changed by the user and is set by the administrator (provider) of the pay app. Alternatively, the layout of the initially displayed icons in the child icon area 52 may be changeable by the user.

[0033] One of the initially displayed icons is an operation icon 53A that is operated to display all child icons 53. The title of the operation icon 53A is, for example, "View all" or "Show all." The operation icon 53A may be displayed at an edge or corner (bottom right in FIG. 2) of the child icon area 52.

[0034] A notification badge 54A is attached to the operation icon 53A. An integrated message is attached to the notification badge 54A. That is, the integrated message is displayed in association with the operation icon 53A. The integrated message is generated by integrating two or more notification messages.

[0035] 3 illustrates an example of a list screen 60 that is displayed when a user operates the operation icon 53A. The list screen 60 may be displayed in the form of, for example, a modal window, a pop-up, or a banner that is displayed over the payment screen 50, but is not limited to these.

[0036] All child icons 53 are displayed in a list on the list screen 60. The list screen 60 may include a header 61, a message display area 62, and multiple partitioned areas 63 to 67. The message display area 62 may display the same integrated message as that attached to the notification badge 54A. The topmost partitioned area 63 of the multiple partitioned areas 63 to 67 displays a specified number L (e.g., L=3) of recently used child icons 53. The remaining multiple partitioned areas 64 to 67 may each correspond to a category of child apps.

[0037] In the sectioned area 63, the specified number L of child icons 53 may be arranged from left to right in order of most recently used. The arrangement order of the child icons 53 in each of the sectioned areas 64 to 67 is set by the administrator (provider) of the pay app and cannot be changed by the user. Alternatively, the arrangement order of the child icons 53 in each of the sectioned areas 64 to 67 may be changeable by the user.

[0038] The categories of the child applications may include, for example, "points," "bargain information," "affiliated services," and "finance," but the divisions and number of divisions are not limited to these. Section area 64 corresponds to "points," section area 65 corresponds to "bargain information," section area 66 corresponds to "affiliated services," and section area 67 corresponds to "finance."

[0039] The "Points" category relates to point programs. Point programs are customer loyalty programs that allow users to earn points by using a pay app or use points for electronic payments. Functions provided by child apps in the "Points" category may include, but are not limited to, a points record display function, a points management function, and a check-in function. The check-in function provides a service that allows users to earn points by checking in when visiting a registered store.

[0040] The "Special Offers" category relates to benefits provided to users, such as campaign information, coupons, flyers, etc. from the Pay App administrator. Functions provided by child apps in the "Special Offers" category may include, but are not limited to, a campaign information list function, a flyer (advertisement) display function, and a coupon display function.

[0041] The "Affiliated Services" category relates to services provided by third-party organizations that are separate from the administrator of the Pay App and that have partnered with the administrator to list the child apps. Child apps in the "Affiliated Services" category may include links, such as, but are not limited to, links to shopping sites, restaurant sites, and restaurant reservation sites, and may also implement functions related to the provision of services.

[0042] The "Finance" category relates to financial services. Functions provided by child apps in the "Finance" category may include, but are not limited to, the ability to display credit card details registered for payments with the Pay app, the ability to check bank balances registered for payments with the Pay app, and links to cash advance sites.

[0043] Two or more of the multiple child icons 53 displayed on the list screen 60 are accompanied by a notification badge 54. The child icons 53 accompanied by the notification badge 54 and the notification messages accompanied by each notification badge 54 are the same in the child icon area 52 and the list screen 60. Therefore, on the payment screen 50 and the list screen 60, which are display screens of the user terminal 30, each of the multiple notification messages is displayed accompanied by a child icon 53 for executing the function of the corresponding child application.

[0044] The notification messages attached to the notification badge 54 include, but are not limited to, "New Information," "NEW," "Bonus Points," "Current Campaign," and "Save Fees." Such notification messages may include advertisements informing users that benefits will be granted by using the corresponding function (child app). Advertisements may be included in the new information, and "Bonus Points," "Current Campaign," and "Save Fees" are also types of advertisements.

[0045] The notification message may use a standard phrase based on specified conditions. For example, "NEW" may be used for a newly introduced child app. "New information" may be used when an existing child app has a new function, service, notification, or campaign. "Current campaign" may also be used when a campaign is being held for a service related to the child app.

[0046] These notification messages may be generated by an administrator of the pay app or the corresponding child app. Notification messages for child apps related to affiliated services may be provided by a third party that provides the corresponding affiliated service.

[0047] [How to generate integrated messages] The information processing device 20 is configured to generate an integrated message to be displayed on the notification badge 54A by using the generative model 14. The integrated message may be generated by integrating all of the notification messages or by integrating some of the notification messages.

[0048] 4, the database 25 may include a management table 70 for managing multiple child applications (functions). The management table 70 may include, for example, multiple function records corresponding to the multiple child applications, respectively. The management table 70 may include, for example, multiple data items, each using a function ID as an identifier. The multiple data items may include, for example, an icon identifier indicating the corresponding child icon 53, a function name (service name), a category, the date and time of last use, the provider name (administrator name), whether the application is a hidden application, and a message, but are not limited to these.

[0049] The management table 70 may include a record for managing the operation icon 53A. In the record for the operation icon 53A, an integrated message is entered in the message input field. In the other records, a notification message is entered in the message input field. The database 25 may include a message table for managing the notification message and the integrated message.

[0050] An information processing method for generating an integrated message by the information processing device 20 will be described with reference to Fig. 5. The processor 21 of the information processing device 20 executes a plurality of instructions to realize the information processing method. The plurality of instructions for realizing the information processing method are included in a program 24 stored in a memory 22.

[0051] 5 can be executed, for example, when a new child app is introduced to the parent app, when a notification message is added, changed, or deleted, or when the child icons 53 displayed in the partition area 63 are replaced. Alternatively, the process of FIG. 5 may be executed at a specified interval.

[0052] In step S11, the processor 21 obtains multiple notification messages to be integrated from the management table 70. In step S12, the processor 21 generates a prompt for input to the generative model 14. The prompt may be generated before step S11.

[0053] The prompt includes multiple notification messages and instructions for generating an integrated message. The instructions may be instructions written in a natural language or may include program code. Processor 21 may exclude duplicate notification messages from the multiple notification messages obtained and include them in the prompt as notification messages to be integrated.

[0054] The prompt may include one or more conditions for generating the integrated message. For example, the instructions may include a directive for causing the generative model 14 to generate an integrated message by integrating the notification messages included in the prompt based on one or more generation conditions.

[0055] The prompt or instruction may include supplemental information for generating the integrated message, such as, but not limited to, at least one of the following:

[0056] -Description of the payment app (e.g., that it is an app for electronic payments) Notification messages are displayed along with child icons 53. - A description of the child app that accompanies the notification message (for example, that it is a service that allows mobile ordering of affiliated fast food). - Number or percentage of child icons 53 with notification messages The supplemental information may include a description of the usage scenario of the notification message and the integrated message. The description of the usage scenario may include, for example, but is not limited to, at least one of the following items:

[0057] - Integrated message is displayed along with operation icon 53A. The operation icon 53A is displayed in the child icon area 52 together with a plurality of child icons 53. By operating the operation icon 53A, a list screen 60 including all child icons 53 is displayed. A plurality of child icons 53 are displayed by category on the list screen 60. The one or more generation conditions may include, for example, a language in which the integrated message is written (e.g., Japanese). The one or more generation conditions may include an upper limit on the number of characters (e.g., 10 characters or less). The upper limit on the number of characters of the integrated message may be equal to the upper limit on the number of characters of the notification message.

[0058] The one or more generation conditions may include a priority condition for a notification message to be preferentially used for integration. The priority condition may include prioritizing a notification message associated with a newly introduced function (child app) or an updated function (child app). The priority condition may also include an order of priority among multiple conditions. Examples of priority conditions include, first, prioritizing a notification message of a newly introduced child app ("NEW" in this example), and, second, prioritizing a notification message in the points category.

[0059] The priority condition may be set based on the usage status of multiple functions (child applications). As an example, the priority condition may be set so as to prioritize notification messages associated with functions (child applications) that are used frequently in the user terminal 30. For example, the priority condition may be set so as to prioritize notification messages displayed in the section area 63 (i.e., notification messages of child applications recently used by the user) for integration. Alternatively, the priority condition may include prioritizing notification messages that include advertisements.

[0060] The directive may include one or more purposes for generating the integrated message, which may include, for example, but are not limited to, at least one of the following purposes: 1) Increasing user engagement 2) Prompt the user to operate the operation icon 53A 3) Prompting the user to operate a hidden icon that is displayed by operating the operation icon 53A 4) Promoting the use of child apps on the list screen 60 According to the purpose 4), only the notification messages of the hidden icons may be included in the prompt as notification messages to be integrated. Alternatively, a priority condition may be set so that the notification messages of the hidden icons are integrated with priority.

[0061] The instruction may include outputting a description of the generated consolidated message along with the consolidated message, which may include, for example, which parts of which notification messages were used.

[0062] In step S13, the processor 21 inputs the generated prompt to the generative model 14. Then, in step S14, the processor 21 acquires the completion output by the generative model 14. The completion includes an integrated message generated by the generative model 14 in accordance with the instructions and conditions included in the prompt. Therefore, in step S14, the processor 21 acquires the integrated message.

[0063] In step S15, processor 21 stores the integrated message acquired in step S14 in memory 22 and ends the process. For example, if management table 70 includes a record that manages operation icon 53A, processor 21 inputs the integrated message acquired in step S14 into the field for inputting a notification message in the record of operation icon 53A. In addition to notification badge 54A, the integrated message may also be displayed in notification badge 44 associated with parent icon 43 of the pay app displayed on home screen 40 shown in FIG. 1.

[0064] The notification message including the integrated message may be transmitted from the information processing device 20 to the user terminal 30 each time the pay app is launched on the user terminal 30, and may be stored in the memory 32. Alternatively, when the notification message including the integrated message is updated, the information processing device 20 may transmit the updated message to the user terminal 30 at any timing.

[0065] [Effects of the present disclosure] When the user operates the pay application icon 43, the payment screen 50 is displayed on the display 34 of the user terminal 30. As a result, the integrated message and notification message read from the memory 32 are displayed in the child icon area 52. At this time, the integrated message is displayed in association with an operation icon 53A for displaying multiple hidden icons that are not displayed on the current display screen (payment screen 50) of the user terminal 30.

[0066] When the user operates operation icon 53A, list screen 60 is displayed on display 34. At this time, the integrated message read from memory 32 is displayed in message display area 62, and other notification messages are also displayed together with the corresponding notification badges 54.

[0067] The functions of the present disclosure are respectively realized by multiple child apps provided using one parent app (e.g., a pay app) as a platform installed on the user terminal 30. In other words, when one parent app is installed on the user terminal 30, multiple child apps associated with the one parent app become available for use on the user terminal 30.

[0068] Because users do not install child applications themselves, they may not be aware of what child applications are included in a parent application. Furthermore, after a user installs a parent application on user terminal 30, new child applications may be automatically added to the parent application, or existing child applications may be updated.

[0069] Therefore, unless the user is notified of the update information, it is difficult for the user to notice that the child application has been updated. Therefore, by displaying a notification message accompanying the child icon 53 of the child application on the screen of the user terminal 30, it is possible to notify the user of the update information for each child application.

[0070] The integrated message is generated by aggregating multiple notification messages according to a condition such as a length of 10 characters or less. It is time-consuming for a person in charge to compose such an integrated message. In this respect, in the present disclosure, the generative model 14 generates the integrated message, so that the generation and updating of the integrated message can be automated. Note that the integrated message may be used after being reviewed by a person in charge.

[0071] Since the generation model 14 may be a general-purpose language model, it is not necessary to generate a dedicated learning model for the purpose of generating an integrated message. Therefore, even when the generation conditions are changed, the desired integrated message can be generated simply by changing the prompt.

[0072] [Effects of this disclosure] According to the present disclosure, the following effects can be achieved. (1) The integrated message is generated by integrating multiple notification messages, and therefore, multiple notifications are concisely summarized. Therefore, the method of displaying messages on the screen of the user terminal 30 can be improved, thereby increasing the visibility of the messages displayed on the screen.

[0073] (2) By including one or more conditions for generating an integrated message in the prompt, the generative model 14 can generate an integrated message according to the conditions. (3) By including an upper limit on the number of characters of the integrated message in the prompt as a condition for generating the integrated message, the generative model 14 can be made to generate an integrated message of a desired number of characters.

[0074] (4) By making the maximum character count of the integrated message equal to the maximum character count of the notification message, the integrated message can be displayed in the same display area as the notification message (for example, notification badges 44, 45, and 45A).

[0075] (5) The prompt may include a priority condition that notification messages associated with newly introduced or updated features be given priority, thereby allowing notifications about new or updated features to be given priority in the integrated message.

[0076] (6) By setting the priority conditions to be included in the prompt based on the usage status of multiple functions, the generative model 14 can generate an appropriate integrated message according to the usage status.

[0077] (7) By including in the prompt a priority condition that notification messages associated with frequently used functions be given priority, notifications about frequently used functions can be preferentially included in the integrated message.

[0078] (8) By including in the prompt a condition that notification messages containing advertisements be preferentially integrated, advertisements can be preferentially included in the integrated message. (9) By displaying an appropriate integrated message generated by the generative model 14 in association with the operation icon 53A, the user can be prompted to operate the operation icon 53A.

[0079] (10) By including in the prompt a prompt to operate a hidden icon as the purpose of generating an integrated message, the generative model 14 can generate an integrated message according to the purpose.

[0080] (11) By displaying a notification message accompanying the child icon 53, it is possible to notify the customer of information about the corresponding child application. (12) The integrated message can prompt the user to operate the operation icon 53A. When the operation icon 53A is operated, a notification message for the non-displayed icon can be displayed on the display .

[0081] This embodiment can be modified as follows: This embodiment and the following modifications can be combined and implemented within the scope of technical compatibility. [Example of changing the child app] Child apps may be selectively installed, uninstalled, or hidden by a user through the parent app by user interaction with the parent app.

[0082] [Example of modifying the generative model] The information processing device 20 may include the generative model 14 stored in the memory 22. Alternatively, the information processing device 20 may include the generative model 14 stored in an external memory. In this case, the information processing device 20 may be realized as an information processing system.

[0083] [Example of changing operation icons] The operation icon 53A may employ an operation object having a different shape or type from the other child icons 53. For example, the operation object may be, but is not limited to, a button, a slide bar, a tab, an image, a graphic, text, a symbol, or a combination thereof.

[0084] [Example of changing message display method] At least one of the notification message and the integrated message may be displayed in association with any object (e.g., text with a link, or an app button) displayed on the display 34, instead of the notification badge 54 associated with the child icon 53. Furthermore, the notification message and the integrated message are not limited to being displayed as the notification badge 54, and may be displayed, for example, as the title (explanatory text) of an object such as the icon 53.
