[0104] Example 1
[0105] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0106] The previous system was unable to fully utilize user attributes, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, making it difficult to select the most suitable product for each individual user. Furthermore, the packaging and shipping processes for selected products were inefficient, and notifications to users were sometimes delayed. This resulted in low user satisfaction and hindered the company's hopes of increasing sales.
[0107] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.
[0108] In this invention, the server includes means for acquiring user attribute information, means for receiving budget information entered by the user, means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, means for generating a list of selected products as a lucky bag list and sending it to a shipping system, means for picking up products from inventory based on the lucky bag list, packaging them, and handing them over to a delivery company, and means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information. This makes it possible to efficiently select and ship optimal products for users and quickly notify them.
[0109] "User attribute information" is information that indicates individual characteristics of a user, such as gender, age, and interest tags.
[0110] "Budget information" is information indicating the budget amount for purchases entered by the user on the system.
[0111] "Online behavior history" is information that records a user's behavior on the Internet, such as browsing history and purchase history.
[0112] "Trend information" is information about products and services that are currently or recently popular.
[0113] "Generative AI" is an algorithm that uses artificial intelligence technology to select the most suitable product based on a user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information.
[0114] The "Lucky Bag List" is a list of the most suitable products selected by the generation AI.
[0115] The "shipping system" is a system that is responsible for picking up products from inventory based on the lucky bag list, packaging them, and handing them over to the delivery company.
[0116] "Means of notification" refers to the means used to inform users of the shipping information for the lucky bag, and includes email and messaging services.
[0117] A "product candidate list" is a list of candidate products that the generation AI selects based on the user's information and that will ultimately be provided.
[0118] This invention relates to a system that uses generative AI to select the most suitable products for a user based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, and provides them as a lucky bag. This system consists of the following components:
[0119] 1. Obtaining user information
[0120] The server detects the user's login and retrieves the user's attribute information from an external database. The retrieved attribute information includes gender, age, and interest tags. This information is used as the basis for the generative AI to select appropriate products.
[0121] Example: When a 30-year-old male user A logs into the system, the server retrieves his gender as "male," his age as "30," and his interest tags as "sports" and "technology" from an external database and saves them as session information.
[0122] 2. Enter your budget
[0123] The user enters budget information into a budget input form on the system's UI. The entered budget information is sent to the server via the terminal and saved. This budget information is used as one of the product selection criteria.
[0124] Example: User A enters a budget of "5,000 yen" and the information is sent from the device to the server.
[0125] 3. Product selection process
[0126] The server retrieves relevant online behavior history and the latest trend information based on the user's attribute information and budget information, which is obtained from external APIs and internal databases.
[0127] Next, the server calls the generation AI module and inputs the user information, budget, and the acquired behavior history and trend information as a prompt sentence, which is as follows:
[0128] text
[0129] User Attributes:
[0130] Gender: Male
[0131] Age: 30
[0132] Interests Tags: Sports, Technology
[0133] Budget: 5,000 yen
[0134] Suggest three products that are ideal for this user. Consider the latest trending products and the user's past purchasing history as criteria for product selection.
[0135] The generative AI module scores the most suitable products based on the input information and generates a list of candidate products.
[0136] Example: Generative AI selects, for example, sportswear and the latest gadget accessories based on user A's interests and budget.
[0137] 4. Creation and shipping of lucky bags
[0138] The server creates a list of selected products as a lucky bag list and sends it to the shipping system. The shipping system picks up products from inventory based on this lucky bag list and packages them. The packaged lucky bags are then handed over to a delivery company.
[0139] Example: A lucky bag containing sportswear and gadget accessories is generated and shipped to user A's address.
[0140] 5. Notice to Users
[0141] The server will notify the user's contacts of the lucky bag delivery information via email or messaging service, and the device will receive the notification and allow the user to check the delivery status of the lucky bag.
[0142] Example: User A receives a message on their smartphone saying, "Your lucky bag has been shipped. It will arrive within a few days, so look forward to it!"

[0222] (Application example 1)
[0223] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0224] In today's online shopping world, proposing optimal products to users and offering them as lucky bags is an important factor in increasing user satisfaction. Conventional systems make it difficult to select optimal products based on the user's attributes and individual budget, and the products actually offered often do not meet the user's expectations. Efficiently notifying users of shipping information is also a challenge. In particular, smartphone applications are rarely used to provide users with real-time information, and this issue is also in need of improvement.
[0225] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 1 is realized by the following means.
[0226] In this invention, the server includes: means for acquiring user attribute information; means for receiving budget information entered by the user; means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information; means for packaging and shipping the selected products as a lucky bag; means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information; means for having a smartphone application and displaying it using the generation AI; means for providing the user with shipping information and notifications through the smartphone application; and means for prompting the generation AI based on the above information and trend information. This makes it possible to select optimal products based on the user's individual attribute information and budget and provide them as a lucky bag, and to efficiently notify the user.
[0227] "User attribute information" is information that indicates characteristics such as the user's gender, age, and interests.
[0228] "Budget information" is information that indicates the upper limit of the amount set by the user when making a purchase.
[0229] "Online behavior history" is information that represents the history of operations, selections, browsing, etc. that a user has performed on the Internet.
[0230] "Trend information" refers to information that indicates currently popular products and services and trends in fashion.
[0231] "Generative AI" is a system that uses artificial intelligence technology to analyze data and generate items or results that are optimal for a specific purpose.
[0232] A "lucky bag" is a type of product that offers multiple different products in one package.
[0233] "Packaging" is the process of packing selected items and preparing them for shipment.
[0234] A "smartphone application" is software that runs on a smartphone device and is a program that provides specific functions or services.
[0235] A "notification" is a means of conveying information from a system to a user, typically via email or push notification.
[0236] This invention is a system that uses generative AI to select the most suitable products for a user based on their attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, and provides them as lucky bags. This system consists of the following components:
[0237] 1. Obtaining user information
[0238] When a user logs in to the system, the server retrieves the user's attribute information from an external database, including the user's gender, age, and interest tags.
[0239] As a specific example, when a 30-year-old male user logs in, the server obtains that the user's gender is male, age is 30, and interest tags are "sports" and "technology."
[0240] 2. Enter your budget
[0241] The user enters budget information into a budget entry form on the system. Once the terminal inputs the budget information, the information is sent to the server.
[0242] For example, a user enters a budget of "5,000 yen."
[0243] 3. Product selection process
[0244] The server acquires online behavior history and trend information based on the user's attribute information and budget information. Based on the acquired information, it calls the generation AI module and selects the most suitable products. The generation AI performs scoring based on past purchase history, interest tags, and trending product lists to generate the most suitable product candidate list.
[0245] As a concrete example, generative AI will select sportswear and the latest gadget accessories for users.
[0246] 4. Creation and shipping of lucky bags
[0247] The server sends the selected product list as a lucky bag list to the shipping system. The shipping system picks up each product from inventory based on the lucky bag list and packages it. Once packaged, the lucky bag is handed over to the delivery company.
[0248] As a specific example, a lucky bag containing sportswear and gadget accessories is generated and shipped to the user's address.
[0249] 5. Notice to Users
[0250] The server will notify the user's contacts of the delivery of the lucky bag. Notifications will be sent via email or messaging services. The user will receive a notification on their device and can check the status.
[0251] As a concrete example, a user receives a message on their smartphone saying, "Your lucky bag has been shipped. It will arrive within a few days, so look forward to it!"
[0252] In this invention, the generative AI creates prompts based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, and then selects the most suitable product based on these.The main hardware and software used include a server, user terminal, generative AI model, database, inventory management system, delivery system, notification service, mail server, etc.
[0253] Example prompt sentence:
[0254] Based on the user's demographic information (gender: male, age: 30, interests: sports, technology), online behavior history, budget: 5,000 yen, and a list of trending products (e.g., "smartwatch," "sneakers," "headphones"), select the most suitable products for the user and generate a lucky bag.
[0255] By implementing the present invention, it is possible to select optimal products based on the user's individual attribute information and budget, and offer them as lucky bags, and to efficiently notify users. This can improve user satisfaction and is expected to increase sales for online shops.
[0256] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

Based on this information, a personalized profile of the user is generated. The input is the user ID, and the output is the user's attribute information.
[0260] Step 2:
[0261] Enter your budget
[0262] The user enters budget information into a form on the system. The terminal retrieves this information and sends it to the server. The input is the budget amount entered by the user, and the output is the budget information sent to the server.
[0263] Step 3:
[0264] Acquisition of online behavior history and trend information
[0265] The server obtains users' online behavioral history and trend information from external sources. The behavioral history includes past purchase history and browsing history, and the trend information includes currently popular products and services. The input is a request for online behavioral history and trend information, and the output is the obtained behavioral history and trend information.
[0266] Step 4:
[0267] Generate prompt statement
[0268] The server creates a prompt for the generative AI model based on the acquired user attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information. This prompt is used to request a list of optimal products from the generative AI model. The input is the user's composite information, and the output is the prompt.
[0269] Step 5:
[0270] Selection of the optimal product
[0271] The server calls the generative AI model and inputs a prompt to select the most suitable product. The generative AI model considers the user's interests and trends, performs scoring, and selects products. The input is the prompt, and the output is a list of selected products.
[0272] Step 6:
[0273] Creation of lucky bags
[0274] The server generates a list of selected products as a lucky bag list and sends it to the shipping system. At this time, it checks the inventory status of the products and issues instructions to pick up the products from the inventory. The input is the product list, and the output is the lucky bag list.
[0275] Step 7:

[0473] (Application example 2)
[0474] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0475] Conventional online shopping systems have mechanisms for suggesting products based on user attribute information and budget information, but they are unable to select products that take into account the user's emotional state, and therefore are unable to sufficiently increase user satisfaction. Furthermore, there is a need to provide a personalized shopping experience by proposing products that incorporate emotional information. Furthermore, offering selected products as lucky bags is also a challenge, as it provides a new shopping experience for users and increases their satisfaction.
[0476] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.
[0477] In this invention, the server includes means for acquiring user attribute information, means for receiving budget information entered by the user, means for analyzing the user's online behavior and input data and acquiring emotional information, means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, emotional information, and trend information, means for packaging and shipping the selected products as a lucky bag, and means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information. This makes it possible to select optimal products based on the user's attribute information, emotional information, and budget information, providing a personalized purchasing experience and high satisfaction.
[0478] "User attribute information" refers to basic information related to individual users, such as their gender, age, and interest tags.
[0479] "Budget information" is information indicating the upper limit of the amount set by the user for purchases.
[0480] "Online behavior" is a record of all actions a user takes on a website or application, including clicks, views, and purchases.
[0481] "Emotional information" is information that indicates a user's emotional state analyzed from their online behavior and input data.
[0482] "Generative AI" is artificial intelligence that generates optimal products based on user information.
[0483] "Trend information" is information about currently popular products and services.
[0484] A "lucky bag" is a package containing multiple selected products.
[0485] "Packaging" is the process of assembling the selected products into lucky bags.
[0486] "Shipping" is the process of sending the packaged lucky bag to the user.
[0487] "Notification" refers to the act of informing users of the shipping information for lucky bags.
[0488] This invention is a system that utilizes user attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, trend information, and emotional information to select the most suitable products for each user using generative AI and provide them as lucky bags. A specific embodiment of this system is shown below.
[0489] When a user logs in to the system, the server first obtains the user's attribute information from an external database. This information includes gender, age, and interest tags. For example, when a 30-year-old male user logs in, the server obtains that the user's gender is male, age is 30, and interest tags are sports and technology.
[0490] Next, when the user inputs budget information through the terminal, the information is sent to the server. For example, if the user inputs a budget of 5,000 yen, this information is saved on the server.
[0491] The server then calls an emotion engine that analyzes the user's online behavior and input data to obtain the user's emotion information and save it as session data. For example, it may be analyzed to determine whether the user is feeling excitement or anticipation.
[0492] Based on this information, the server calls the AI generator, which then comprehensively analyzes the user's attributes, budget, online behavior, trends, and emotional information to select the most suitable products. For example, the AI generator can select a combination of sportswear and the latest gadget accessories for the user.
[0493] The server sends the selected product list as a lucky bag list to the shipping system, which then picks and packages the items from the inventory. For example, a lucky bag containing sportswear and gadget accessories is created and shipped to the user's address.
[0494] The server then notifies the user's contacts of the delivery of the lucky bag. Notifications are sent via email or messaging services, and the user can check the status on their own device. For example, the user might receive a message on their smartphone saying, "Your lucky bag has been shipped. It will arrive within a few days, so look forward to it!"
[0495] This system allows users to receive lucky bags that match their attributes, emotional state, and interests, and online shops can expect to increase user satisfaction and sales by providing products that meet the needs and emotions of each user.

[0622] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0623] The previous system was unable to fully utilize user attributes, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, making it difficult to select the most suitable product for each individual user. Furthermore, the packaging and shipping processes for selected products were inefficient, and notifications to users were sometimes delayed. This resulted in low user satisfaction and hindered the company's hopes of increasing sales.
[0624] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.
[0625] In this invention, the server includes means for acquiring user attribute information, means for receiving budget information entered by the user, means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, means for generating a list of selected products as a lucky bag list and sending it to a shipping system, means for picking up products from inventory based on the lucky bag list, packaging them, and handing them over to a delivery company, and means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information. This makes it possible to efficiently select and ship optimal products for users and quickly notify them.
[0626] "User attribute information" is information that indicates individual characteristics of a user, such as gender, age, and interest tags.
[0627] "Budget information" is information indicating the budget amount for purchases entered by the user on the system.
[0628] "Online behavior history" is information that records a user's behavior on the Internet, such as browsing history and purchase history.

[0633] "Means of notification" refers to the means used to inform users of the shipping information for the lucky bag, and includes email and messaging services.
[0634] A "product candidate list" is a list of candidate products that the generation AI selects based on the user's information and that will ultimately be provided.
[0635] This invention relates to a system that uses generative AI to select the most suitable products for a user based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, and provides them as a lucky bag. This system consists of the following components:
[0636] 1. Obtaining user information
[0637] The server detects the user's login and retrieves the user's attribute information from an external database. The retrieved attribute information includes gender, age, and interest tags. This information is used as the basis for the generative AI to select appropriate products.
[0638] Example: When a 30-year-old male user A logs into the system, the server retrieves his gender as "male," his age as "30," and his interest tags as "sports" and "technology" from an external database and saves them as session information.
[0639] 2. Enter your budget
[0640] The user enters budget information into a budget input form on the system's UI. The entered budget information is sent to the server via the terminal and saved. This budget information is used as one of the product selection criteria.
[0641] Example: User A enters a budget of "5,000 yen" and the information is sent from the device to the server.
[0642] 3. Product selection process
[0643] The server retrieves relevant online behavior history and the latest trend information based on the user's attribute information and budget information, which is obtained from external APIs and internal databases.
[0644] Next, the server calls the generation AI module and inputs the user information, budget, and the acquired behavior history and trend information as a prompt sentence, which is as follows:
[0645] text
[0646] User Attributes:
[0647] Gender: Male
[0648] Age: 30
[0649] Interests Tags: Sports, Technology
[0650] Budget: 5,000 yen
[0651] Suggest three products that are ideal for this user. Consider the latest trending products and the user's past purchasing history as criteria for product selection.
[0652] The generative AI module scores the most suitable products based on the input information and generates a list of candidate products.
[0653] Example: Generative AI selects, for example, sportswear and the latest gadget accessories based on user A's interests and budget.
[0654] 4. Creation and shipping of lucky bags
[0655] The server creates a list of selected products as a lucky bag list and sends it to the shipping system. The shipping system picks up products from inventory based on this lucky bag list and packages them. The packaged lucky bags are then handed over to a delivery company.

[0991] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0992] Conventional online shopping systems have mechanisms for suggesting products based on user attribute information and budget information, but they are unable to select products that take into account the user's emotional state, and therefore are unable to sufficiently increase user satisfaction. Furthermore, there is a need to provide a personalized shopping experience by proposing products that incorporate emotional information. Furthermore, offering selected products as lucky bags is also a challenge, as it provides a new shopping experience for users and increases their satisfaction.
[0993] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.
[0994] In this invention, the server includes means for acquiring user attribute information, means for receiving budget information entered by the user, means for analyzing the user's online behavior and input data and acquiring emotional information, means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, emotional information, and trend information, means for packaging and shipping the selected products as a lucky bag, and means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information. This makes it possible to select optimal products based on the user's attribute information, emotional information, and budget information, providing a personalized purchasing experience and high satisfaction.
[0995] "User attribute information" refers to basic information related to individual users, such as their gender, age, and interest tags.
[0996] "Budget information" is information indicating the upper limit of the amount set by the user for purchases.
[0997] "Online behavior" is a record of all actions a user takes on a website or application, including clicks, views, and purchases.
[0998] "Emotional information" is information that indicates a user's emotional state analyzed from their online behavior and input data.
[0999] "Generative AI" is artificial intelligence that generates optimal products based on user information.
[1000] "Trend information" is information about currently popular products and services.
[1001] A "lucky bag" is a package containing multiple selected products.
[1002] "Packaging" is the process of assembling the selected products into lucky bags.
[1003] "Shipping" is the process of sending the packaged lucky bag to the user.
[1004] "Notification" refers to the act of informing users of the shipping information for lucky bags.
[1005] This invention is a system that utilizes user attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, trend information, and emotional information to select the most suitable products for each user using generative AI and provide them as lucky bags. A specific embodiment of this system is shown below.
[1006] When a user logs in to the system, the server first obtains the user's attribute information from an external database. This information includes gender, age, and interest tags. For example, when a 30-year-old male user logs in, the server obtains that the user's gender is male, age is 30, and interest tags are sports and technology.
[1007] Next, when the user inputs budget information through the terminal, the information is sent to the server. For example, if the user inputs a budget of 5,000 yen, this information is saved on the server.
[1008] The server then calls an emotion engine that analyzes the user's online behavior and input data to obtain the user's emotion information and save it as session data. For example, it may be analyzed to determine whether the user is feeling excitement or anticipation.
[1009] Based on this information, the server calls the AI generator, which then comprehensively analyzes the user's attributes, budget, online behavior, trends, and emotional information to select the most suitable products. For example, the AI generator can select a combination of sportswear and the latest gadget accessories for the user.
[1010] The server sends the selected product list as a lucky bag list to the shipping system, which then picks and packages the items from the inventory. For example, a lucky bag containing sportswear and gadget accessories is created and shipped to the user's address.
[1011] The server then notifies the user's contacts of the delivery of the lucky bag. Notifications are sent via email or messaging services, and the user can check the status on their own device. For example, the user might receive a message on their smartphone saying, "Your lucky bag has been shipped. It will arrive within a few days, so look forward to it!"
[1012] This system allows users to receive lucky bags that match their attributes, emotional state, and interests, and online shops can expect to increase user satisfaction and sales by providing products that meet the needs and emotions of each user.

[1138] Example 1
[1139] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1140] The previous system was unable to fully utilize user attributes, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, making it difficult to select the most suitable product for each individual user. Furthermore, the packaging and shipping processes for selected products were inefficient, and notifications to users were sometimes delayed. This resulted in low user satisfaction and hindered the company's hopes of increasing sales.
[1141] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.
[1142] In this invention, the server includes means for acquiring user attribute information, means for receiving budget information entered by the user, means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, means for generating a list of selected products as a lucky bag list and sending it to a shipping system, means for picking up products from inventory based on the lucky bag list, packaging them, and handing them over to a delivery company, and means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information. This makes it possible to efficiently select and ship optimal products for users and quickly notify them.
[1143] "User attribute information" is information that indicates individual characteristics of a user, such as gender, age, and interest tags.
[1144] "Budget information" is information indicating the budget amount for purchases entered by the user on the system.
[1145] "Online behavior history" is information that records a user's behavior on the Internet, such as browsing history and purchase history.

[1147] "Generative AI" is an algorithm that uses artificial intelligence technology to select the most suitable product based on a user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information.
[1148] The "Lucky Bag List" is a list of the most suitable products selected by the generation AI.
[1149] The "shipping system" is a system that is responsible for picking up products from inventory based on the lucky bag list, packaging them, and handing them over to the delivery company.
[1150] "Means of notification" refers to the means used to inform users of the shipping information for the lucky bag, and includes email and messaging services.
[1151] A "product candidate list" is a list of candidate products that the generation AI selects based on the user's information and that will ultimately be provided.
[1152] This invention relates to a system that uses generative AI to select the most suitable products for a user based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, and provides them as a lucky bag. This system consists of the following components:
[1153] 1. Obtaining user information
[1154] The server detects the user's login and retrieves the user's attribute information from an external database. The retrieved attribute information includes gender, age, and interest tags. This information is used as the basis for the generative AI to select appropriate products.
[1155] Example: When a 30-year-old male user A logs into the system, the server retrieves his gender as "male," his age as "30," and his interest tags as "sports" and "technology" from an external database and saves them as session information.
[1156] 2. Enter your budget
[1157] The user enters budget information into a budget input form on the system's UI. The entered budget information is sent to the server via the terminal and saved. This budget information is used as one of the product selection criteria.
[1158] Example: User A enters a budget of "5,000 yen" and the information is sent from the device to the server.
[1159] 3. Product selection process
[1160] The server retrieves relevant online behavior history and the latest trend information based on the user's attribute information and budget information, which is obtained from external APIs and internal databases.
[1161] Next, the server calls the generation AI module and inputs the user information, budget, and the acquired behavior history and trend information as a prompt sentence, which is as follows:
[1162] text
[1163] User Attributes:
[1164] Gender: Male
[1165] Age: 30
[1166] Interests Tags: Sports, Technology

[1507] (Application example 2)
[1508] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1509] Conventional online shopping systems have mechanisms for suggesting products based on user attribute information and budget information, but they are unable to select products that take into account the user's emotional state, and therefore are unable to sufficiently increase user satisfaction. Furthermore, there is a need to provide a personalized shopping experience by proposing products that incorporate emotional information. Furthermore, offering selected products as lucky bags is also a challenge, as it provides a new shopping experience for users and increases their satisfaction.
[1510] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.
[1511] In this invention, the server includes means for acquiring user attribute information, means for receiving budget information entered by the user, means for analyzing the user's online behavior and input data and acquiring emotional information, means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, emotional information, and trend information, means for packaging and shipping the selected products as a lucky bag, and means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information. This makes it possible to select optimal products based on the user's attribute information, emotional information, and budget information, providing a personalized purchasing experience and high satisfaction.
[1512] "User attribute information" refers to basic information related to individual users, such as their gender, age, and interest tags.
[1513] "Budget information" is information indicating the upper limit of the amount set by the user for purchases.
[1514] "Online behavior" is a record of all actions a user takes on a website or application, including clicks, views, and purchases.
[1515] "Emotional information" is information that indicates a user's emotional state analyzed from their online behavior and input data.
[1516] "Generative AI" is artificial intelligence that generates optimal products based on user information.
[1517] "Trend information" is information about currently popular products and services.
[1518] A "lucky bag" is a package containing multiple selected products.
[1519] "Packaging" is the process of assembling the selected products into lucky bags.
[1520] "Shipping" is the process of sending the packaged lucky bag to the user.
[1521] "Notification" refers to the act of informing users of the shipping information for lucky bags.
[1522] This invention is a system that utilizes user attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, trend information, and emotional information to select the most suitable products for each user using generative AI and provide them as lucky bags. A specific embodiment of this system is shown below.
[1523] When a user logs in to the system, the server first obtains the user's attribute information from an external database. This information includes gender, age, and interest tags. For example, when a 30-year-old male user logs in, the server obtains that the user's gender is male, age is 30, and interest tags are sports and technology.
[1524] Next, when the user inputs budget information through the terminal, the information is sent to the server. For example, if the user inputs a budget of 5,000 yen, this information is saved on the server.
[1525] The server then calls an emotion engine that analyzes the user's online behavior and input data to obtain the user's emotion information and save it as session data. For example, it may be analyzed to determine whether the user is feeling excitement or anticipation.
[1526] Based on this information, the server calls the AI generator, which then comprehensively analyzes the user's attributes, budget, online behavior, trends, and emotional information to select the most suitable products. For example, the AI generator can select a combination of sportswear and the latest gadget accessories for the user.
[1527] The server sends the selected product list as a lucky bag list to the shipping system, which then picks and packages the items from the inventory. For example, a lucky bag containing sportswear and gadget accessories is created and shipped to the user's address.
[1528] The server then notifies the user's contacts of the delivery of the lucky bag. Notifications are sent via email or messaging services, and the user can check the status on their own device. For example, the user might receive a message on their smartphone saying, "Your lucky bag has been shipped. It will arrive within a few days, so look forward to it!"
[1529] This system allows users to receive lucky bags that match their attributes, emotional state, and interests, and online shops can expect to increase user satisfaction and sales by providing products that meet the needs and emotions of each user.

[1656] Example 1
[1657] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1658] The previous system was unable to fully utilize user attributes, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, making it difficult to select the most suitable product for each individual user. Furthermore, the packaging and shipping processes for selected products were inefficient, and notifications to users were sometimes delayed. This resulted in low user satisfaction and hindered the company's hopes of increasing sales.
[1659] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.
[1660] In this invention, the server includes means for acquiring user attribute information, means for receiving budget information entered by the user, means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, means for generating a list of selected products as a lucky bag list and sending it to a shipping system, means for picking up products from inventory based on the lucky bag list, packaging them, and handing them over to a delivery company, and means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information. This makes it possible to efficiently select and ship optimal products for users and quickly notify them.
[1661] "User attribute information" is information that indicates individual characteristics of a user, such as gender, age, and interest tags.
[1662] "Budget information" is information indicating the budget amount for purchases entered by the user on the system.
[1663] "Online behavior history" is information that records a user's behavior on the Internet, such as browsing history and purchase history.
[1664] "Trend information" is information about products and services that are currently or recently popular.
[1665] "Generative AI" is an algorithm that uses artificial intelligence technology to select the most suitable product based on a user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information.
[1666] The "Lucky Bag List" is a list of the most suitable products selected by the generation AI.
[1667] The "shipping system" is a system that is responsible for picking up products from inventory based on the lucky bag list, packaging them, and handing them over to the delivery company.
[1668] "Means of notification" refers to the means used to inform users of the shipping information for the lucky bag, and includes email and messaging services.
[1669] A "product candidate list" is a list of candidate products that the generation AI selects based on the user's information and that will ultimately be provided.
[1670] This invention relates to a system that uses generative AI to select the most suitable products for a user based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, and trend information, and provides them as a lucky bag. This system consists of the following components:
[1671] 1. Obtaining user information
[1672] The server detects the user's login and retrieves the user's attribute information from an external database. The retrieved attribute information includes gender, age, and interest tags. This information is used as the basis for the generative AI to select appropriate products.
[1673] Example: When a 30-year-old male user A logs into the system, the server retrieves his gender as "male," his age as "30," and his interest tags as "sports" and "technology" from an external database and saves them as session information.
[1674] 2. Enter your budget
[1675] The user enters budget information into a budget input form on the system's UI. The entered budget information is sent to the server via the terminal and saved. This budget information is used as one of the product selection criteria.
[1676] Example: User A enters a budget of "5,000 yen" and the information is sent from the device to the server.
[1677] 3. Product selection process
[1678] The server retrieves relevant online behavior history and the latest trend information based on the user's attribute information and budget information, which is obtained from external APIs and internal databases.
[1679] Next, the server calls the generation AI module and inputs the user information, budget, and the acquired behavior history and trend information as a prompt sentence, which is as follows:
[1680] text
[1681] User Attributes:
[1682] Gender: Male
[1683] Age: 30
[1684] Interests Tags: Sports, Technology
[1685] Budget: 5,000 yen
[1686] Suggest three products that are ideal for this user. Consider the latest trending products and the user's past purchasing history as criteria for product selection.
[1687] The generative AI module scores the most suitable products based on the input information and generates a list of candidate products.
[1688] Example: Generative AI selects, for example, sportswear and the latest gadget accessories based on user A's interests and budget.
[1689] 4. Creation and shipping of lucky bags
[1690] The server creates a list of selected products as a lucky bag list and sends it to the shipping system. The shipping system picks up products from inventory based on this lucky bag list and packages them. The packaged lucky bags are then handed over to a delivery company.
[1691] Example: A lucky bag containing sportswear and gadget accessories is generated and shipped to user A's address.
[1692] 5. Notice to Users

[1909] Example 2
[1910] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1911] Conventional online shopping systems can select products based on user attributes and budget information, but they have the problem of not being able to select products that take into account user emotions or real-time trend information. As a result, user satisfaction declines and sales growth cannot be expected. Furthermore, there has been no effective system for providing users with the best lucky bags.
[1912] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.
[1913] In this invention, the server includes a means for acquiring user attribute information, a means for receiving budget information entered by the user, and a means for selecting optimal products in consideration of the user's emotional state based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, analysis results by the generation AI, and trend information. This makes it possible to provide optimal lucky bags that reflect the user's emotions and real-time trends.
[1914] "User attribute information" refers to personal characteristics such as the user's gender, age, and tags that indicate their interests.
[1915] "Budget Information" means the amount information entered by a User within the System to be used for purchases.
[1916] "Online behavior history" refers to the history of a user's activities on the Internet, and specifically includes browsing history, purchasing history, etc.
[1917] "Generative AI" refers to artificial intelligence that analyzes input data and selects products that are suitable for the user.
[1918] "Trend information" refers to information that shows current trends in the market and consumer interests.
[1919] "Emotional state" refers to emotions analyzed from a user's online behavior and input data, such as joy, excitement, and anticipation.
[1920] A "lucky bag" is a package containing a selection of multiple products.
[1921] "Packaging" refers to the process of wrapping selected products and assembling them into a single package.
[1922] "Notification" refers to a means of informing users of lucky bag shipping information, and is done via email or messaging services.
[1923] This invention is a system that utilizes user attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, trend information, and emotional information to select the most suitable products for each user using generative AI and provide them as lucky bags. In particular, by combining it with an emotion analysis engine that analyzes user emotions, it becomes possible to select products that take into account the user's emotional state.
[1924] The system consists of the following components:
[1925] 1. Obtaining user information
[1926] When a user logs into the system, the server retrieves the user's attribute information from an external database, including gender, age, and interest tags.
[1927] Example: For example, when a 30-year-old male user A logs in, the server obtains that his gender is "male," his age is "30," and his interest tags are "sports" and "technology."
[1928] 2. Enter your budget
[1929] The user enters budget information into a budget entry form on the system.
[1930] The terminal sends the information to the server.
[1931] Example: User A enters a budget of 5,000 yen.
[1932] 3. Acquiring emotional information
[1933] The server calls an emotion analysis engine that analyzes the user's online behavior and input data to obtain emotional information.
[1934] The emotion information acquired by the server is saved as session data.
[1935] Example: Emotional information such as "excitement" and "anticipation" is extracted from user A's input data and browsing history.
[1936] 4. Product selection process
[1937] The server calls a generative AI module based on the user's attribute information, budget information, emotional information, online behavior history, and trend information to select the most suitable product.
[1938] The generative AI performs a comprehensive analysis of each data set, generates a list of product candidates that are best suited to the user, and evaluates them to select the optimal combination.
[1939] Example: A generative AI selects a combination of sportswear and the latest gadget accessories for user A.
[1940] Example prompt sentence:
[1941] User demographic information: Gender - Male, Age - 30, Interests - Sports, Technology
[1942] Budget: 5,000 yen
[1943] Emotional information: excitement, anticipation

[2025] (Application example 2)
[2026] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[2027] Conventional online shopping systems have mechanisms for suggesting products based on user attribute information and budget information, but they are unable to select products that take into account the user's emotional state, and therefore are unable to sufficiently increase user satisfaction. Furthermore, there is a need to provide a personalized shopping experience by proposing products that incorporate emotional information. Furthermore, offering selected products as lucky bags is also a challenge, as it provides a new shopping experience for users and increases their satisfaction.
[2028] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.
[2029] In this invention, the server includes means for acquiring user attribute information, means for receiving budget information entered by the user, means for analyzing the user's online behavior and input data and acquiring emotional information, means including a generation AI for selecting optimal products based on the user's attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, emotional information, and trend information, means for packaging and shipping the selected products as a lucky bag, and means for notifying the user of lucky bag shipping information. This makes it possible to select optimal products based on the user's attribute information, emotional information, and budget information, providing a personalized purchasing experience and high satisfaction.
[2030] "User attribute information" refers to basic information related to individual users, such as their gender, age, and interest tags.
[2031] "Budget information" is information indicating the upper limit of the amount set by the user for purchases.
[2032] "Online behavior" is a record of all actions a user takes on a website or application, including clicks, views, and purchases.
[2033] "Emotional information" is information that indicates a user's emotional state analyzed from their online behavior and input data.
[2034] "Generative AI" is artificial intelligence that generates optimal products based on user information.
[2035] "Trend information" is information about currently popular products and services.
[2036] A "lucky bag" is a package containing multiple selected products.
[2037] "Packaging" is the process of assembling the selected products into lucky bags.
[2038] "Shipping" is the process of sending the packaged lucky bag to the user.
[2039] "Notification" refers to the act of informing users of the shipping information for lucky bags.
[2040] This invention is a system that utilizes user attribute information, budget information, online behavior history, trend information, and emotional information to select the most suitable products for each user using generative AI and provide them as lucky bags. A specific embodiment of this system is shown below.
[2041] When a user logs in to the system, the server first obtains the user's attribute information from an external database. This information includes gender, age, and interest tags. For example, when a 30-year-old male user logs in, the server obtains that the user's gender is male, age is 30, and interest tags are sports and technology.
[2042] Next, when the user inputs budget information through the terminal, the information is sent to the server. For example, if the user inputs a budget of 5,000 yen, this information is saved on the server.
[2043] The server then calls an emotion engine that analyzes the user's online behavior and input data to obtain the user's emotion information and save it as session data. For example, it may be analyzed to determine whether the user is feeling excitement or anticipation.
[2044] Based on this information, the server calls the AI generator, which then comprehensively analyzes the user's attributes, budget, online behavior, trends, and emotional information to select the most suitable products. For example, the AI generator can select a combination of sportswear and the latest gadget accessories for the user.
[2045] The server sends the selected product list as a lucky bag list to the shipping system, which then picks and packages the items from the inventory. For example, a lucky bag containing sportswear and gadget accessories is created and shipped to the user's address.
[2046] The server then notifies the user's contacts of the delivery of the lucky bag. Notifications are sent via email or messaging services, and the user can check the status on their own device. For example, the user might receive a message on their smartphone saying, "Your lucky bag has been shipped. It will arrive within a few days, so look forward to it!"
[2047] This system allows users to receive lucky bags that match their attributes, emotional state, and interests, and online shops can expect to increase user satisfaction and sales by providing products that meet the needs and emotions of each user.

[2090] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the control target 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires voice indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits voice data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the voice data.
[2091] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. A prompt including an instruction is input to the data generation model 58, and inference data such as voice data indicating voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.
[2092] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be performed by the robot 414.
[2093] The emotion identification model 59 as an emotion engine may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to an emotion map (see FIG. 9), which is a specific mapping. Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.
[2094] FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an emotion map 400 on which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. Emotions closer to the center of the concentric circles are more primitive. Emotions representing states and actions arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion includes both affect and mental states. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are arranged on the left side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally induced by situational judgment are arranged on the right side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles. Furthermore, the emotion of "pleasure" is arranged on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "discomfort" is arranged on the lower side. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure by which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.
[2095] These emotions are distributed in the 3 o'clock direction on emotion map 400, and typically fluctuate between relief and anxiety. In the right half of emotion map 400, situational awareness dominates over internal sensations, resulting in a sense of calm.
[2096] The inside of emotion map 400 represents what is going on in the mind, and the outside of emotion map 400 represents behavior, so the further you go outside emotion map 400, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).
[2097] Human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. Emotions can also be created for robots, automobiles, and motorcycles, based on various balances, such as posture and remaining battery life. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on Voice Emotion Recognition and Emotional Brain Physiological Signal Analysis Systems, Tokushima University, Doctoral Dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "reaction" domain, where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "situation" domain, where situational awareness is dominant.
[2098] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is a negative emotion on the situation side, around the middle of "repentance" or "reflection." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is a positive emotion on the response side, around "desire." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."
[2099] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple pieces of training data that are combinations of user input and emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions that are located close to each other have similar values, as in the emotion map 900 shown in FIG. 10. FIG. 10 shows an example in which multiple emotions, "relieved," "calm," and "reassuring," have similar emotion values.
[2100] The system according to the present disclosure has been described above mainly with respect to the functions of the data processing device 12, but the system according to the present disclosure is not necessarily implemented on a server. The system according to the present disclosure may be implemented as a general information processing system.

[2104] It is not necessary to store all of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store all of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; only a portion of the specific processing program 56 may be stored.
[2105] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following processors: An example of a processor is a CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing a specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. Another example of a processor is a dedicated electrical circuit, such as an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), a PLD (Programmable Logic Device), or an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), which is a processor with a circuit configuration designed specifically for executing a specific process. Each processor has built-in or connected memory, and each processor uses the memory to execute the specific process.
[2106] The hardware resource that executes the specific processing may be configured with one of these various processors, or may be configured with a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific processing may be a single processor.
[2107] As an example of a system configured with a single processor, first, one processor is configured by combining one or more CPUs and software, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that executes a specific process. Second, there is a system that uses a processor that realizes the functions of an entire system including multiple hardware resources that execute a specific process on a single IC chip, as typified by SoC (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as hardware resources.
[2108] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can be, more specifically, an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. The specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the processing order may be rearranged, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
