[0029] Figure 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.

[0030] As shown in Figure 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific processing is performed by the processor 28. A specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" related to the technology of this disclosure.

[0033] Next, the specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart device 14 as the "terminal".

[0034] The embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail below. This system visualizes the process of achieving goals for the user by generating a future diary based on the goals and dreams entered by the user.

[0035] First, users input their goals and dreams in text format via a device such as a smartphone or computer. The entered information is then transmitted to the server using communication functions.

[0036] Based on the received information, the server utilizes a generative model that processes natural language to generate future diary content depicting the user's goal achievement. This generative model references past success stories and performance data, enabling it to depict the most realistic achievement process for the user's goals.

[0037] Next, the server inserts advertisements for products and services related to goal achievement into the generated future diary content. This involves a process of accurately selecting highly relevant information through integration with an advertising database.

[0038] Furthermore, the server generates prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self. These prompts answer questions the user might have and indicate specific action steps and necessary changes.

[0039] Finally, the server sends the entire set of content to the device, which displays it in a user-friendly format. In this process, the user can gain clear guidance regarding their thoughts and next actions.

[0040] For example, a user with the goal of "making their restaurant successful in five years" can see themselves in their future diary, having "received high ratings as a popular restaurant in the area." The diary describes specific actions taken, such as "first conducting market research and implementing an effective menu PR strategy," and relevant advertisements include information from kitchenware manufacturers. In this way, the system allows users to visualize their actual action plans and obtain necessary product information.

[0041] The following describes the processing flow.

[0042] Step 1:

[0043] The user uses the device to input their goals and dreams as specific text. The device provides an input form through its user interface, allowing the user to enter the information.

[0044] Step 2:

[0045] The terminal sends the entered data to the server. The data is formatted as an HTTP request and sent to the specified endpoint on the server.

[0046] Step 3:

[0047] The server parses the received data and prepares to call the generative model. It checks if the input information is received in the correct format and generates an error message if there are any issues.

[0048] Step 4:

[0049] The server uses a generative model to generate future diary content based on the input information it receives. The generative model uses natural language processing techniques to describe possible scenarios for achieving the goal.

[0050] Step 5:

[0051] The server inserts advertising information related to the future diary entries that have been generated. The advertisements are selected and inserted for products and services that are relevant to the goal. This includes querying the advertising database and selecting the appropriate advertisements.

[0052] Step 6:

[0053] The server generates prompts for the user to interact with their future self. These prompts are created in the form of questions and advice that support the user in achieving their goals, based on their future journal entries.

[0054] Step 7:

[0055] The server sends the final future diary content and dialogue prompts to the terminal. The data is formatted in a way that is easily accessible to the user.

[0056] Step 8:

[0057] The device displays the data it receives to the user. The user can read a future diary and obtain a concrete action plan towards their goals through conversational prompts.

[0058] (Example 1)

[0059] Next, we will describe Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart device 14 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0060] In modern society, people find it difficult to create concrete plans to achieve their goals and dreams. There is a need for systems that help effectively achieve goals by visualizing the path to achieving them and clarifying the necessary actions.

[0061] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0062] This invention includes a server mechanism for receiving data from a user regarding their goals or dreams, a mechanism for utilizing a generative model that generates a future diary using natural language processing based on the data, and a mechanism for incorporating advertising content for products or services related to the generated future diary. This enables the user to visualize their goal achievement process and have an actionable plan of action.

[0063] A "user" refers to an individual who uses the system to provide information about their goals and dreams and to experience the goal-achievement process.

[0064] "Data" refers to specific information about goals or dreams that users input into the system, and is expressed in text format or other similar methods.

[0065] "Natural language processing" refers to the technology that enables computers to understand and process human language, and is particularly used to create generated content based on the user's goals.

[0066] "Future Diary" is hypothetical content created using a generative AI model that depicts the user's goal achievement, and serves as a means for users to visualize the process leading up to that achievement.

[0067] "Generative modeling" refers to a set of algorithms and technologies that use natural language processing based on input data to generate future diaries.

[0068] "Promotional content" refers to information about products or services related to the generated future diary, and is provided as an advertisement to help users achieve their goals.

[0069] An "information processing device" refers to a computer-based hardware or software system that constitutes an entire system, receives and processes input from users, and provides generated content.

[0070] This invention is a system that allows users to visualize their goals and dreams and concretely experience the process of achieving them. The system mainly consists of the user's terminal, a server, and a communication network, and functions through data exchange between these elements.

[0071] Users first use a device such as a smartphone or computer to input their goals and dreams in detail in text format. The entered data is then transmitted to the server via the device's communication function. To ensure the confidentiality and security of the data, it is recommended to use encryption technology for this communication.

[0072] The server receives the user's data and analyzes it using a generative AI model that performs natural language processing. This generative AI model incorporates past success stories and performance data, and automatically generates a future diary that describes realistic steps for the user to achieve their goals. The generated diary includes prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self, showing specific action steps and necessary changes required to achieve their goals.

[0073] Furthermore, the server incorporates advertisements related to the generated diary entries. This is to provide products and services highly relevant to the generated content and the user's goals, and it selects and uses appropriate advertisements from its advertising database. These advertisements also offer suggestions for specific means that users can utilize to achieve their goals.

[0074] The generated future diary content and prompts are sent from the server to the terminal. The terminal displays the received content in a format that is easy for the user to view. The display employs an intuitive user interface and easy-to-read format, designed to help the user easily visualize achieving their goals.

[0075] For example, if a user has the goal of "making their own cafe successful in five years," their future diary will depict them as having "gained recognition as a well-regarded cafe in the community." This diary will include specific actions such as "conducting market research and adopting an effective promotional strategy." Related advertisements will also be presented, such as information on coffee makers and interior design services. This allows the user to visualize their own action plan.

[0076] An example of a prompt might be, "What steps are necessary to make my cafe a thriving business within five years?" This prompt allows the user to consider a concrete action plan to achieve their goal.

[0077] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0078] Step 1:

[0079] Users input their goals and dreams as text using a device such as a smartphone or computer. The input form displays guidelines to help users specify their goals, making it easier for them to enter detailed information. The entered data is temporarily stored on the device and prepared for transmission to the server. The input in this step is text data of the user's goals and dreams, and the output is data converted into a format that can be sent to the server.

[0080] Step 2:

[0081] The terminal transmits the data entered by the user to the server via the internet. Here, an encryption protocol (e.g., HTTPS) is used to protect data privacy and security. The terminal provides feedback to the user to confirm the success of the data transmission. In this step, the input is data prepared on the terminal, and the output is data securely transmitted to the server.

[0082] Step 3:

[0083] The server receives data sent from the terminal and inputs it into a generative AI model for natural language processing. The generative AI model analyzes the user's input data and compares it with pre-trained success story data. Through this process, the server generates a future diary that depicts a realistic process for achieving the user's goals. The input for this step is the user's data, and the output is the generated future diary content.

[0084] Step 4:

[0085] The server inserts advertisements related to the generated future diary entries. This process involves accessing an advertising database to select products and services relevant to the user's goals. The selected advertisements are then embedded in the appropriate locations within the future diary entries. The inputs for this step are the future diary entries and the advertising database, and the output is the diary content with the advertisements inserted.

[0086] Step 5:

[0087] The server generates prompts that allow the user to simulate a conversation with their future self. These prompts suggest answers to questions the user might have and present concrete action steps. For example, a prompt might be generated asking, "What steps are necessary to make my cafe a thriving business within five years?" The input is future diary data, and the output is the generated prompt text.

[0088] Step 6:

[0089] The server sends the completed future diary content and prompts to the terminal. The user's terminal displays the received content in an appropriate format. In doing so, the terminal provides a user-friendly UI and navigation so that the user can intuitively understand the information. The input for this step is the content received from the server, and the output is the user-facing content displayed on the terminal.

[0090] (Application Example 1)

[0091] Next, we will explain Application Example 1. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart device 14 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0092] In modern society, individuals set a wide range of goals and dreams, and are particularly required to create clear plans for purchasing or experiencing things. However, visualizing the specific steps to achieve these goals and accurately obtaining the necessary information and products is not easy. Traditional systems have the problem that the process for achieving goals is not clearly shown, and users do not receive sufficient information on the actions and products necessary to achieve their goals.

[0093] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0094] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams; means for using a generative model that generates future diary content based on the input information; means for inserting advertisements for relevant products or services into the generated future diary content; and means for setting goals related to products or experiences that the user intends to purchase, and visualizing and presenting the process of achieving those goals. This enables the user to concretely visualize the process of achieving their goals or dreams, obtain necessary product information, and proceed with clear guidelines.

[0095] A "goal or dream" refers to a specific matter or objective that a user hopes to achieve in the future, and the result they wish to attain.

[0096] "Input information" refers to text data about the goals and dreams that users provide to the system.

[0097] A "generative model" is an algorithm or program that uses natural language processing technology to create future diary content based on goals set by the user.

[0098] "Future diary content" refers to text content that specifically describes a future scenario in which the user's goals have been achieved.

[0099] "Advertisements" are pieces of information about products or services related to the goals the user is trying to achieve, which are inserted into future diary content.

[0100] "Visualization" means presenting the process and steps for achieving a goal in a way that allows the user to visualize them concretely and clearly.

[0101] "Products or experiences that a user intends to purchase" refers to specific goods or services that the user plans to acquire or experience in the future.

[0102] To implement this invention, a series of programs utilizing a user terminal and a server are required. In this system, the user first inputs information about their goals and dreams using a terminal such as a smartphone. The input information is transmitted to the server via the internet. Based on this information, the server uses a generative AI model (e.g., GPT-3®) to create future diary content.

[0103] The generated future diary content includes advertisements for products and services related to the user's set goals. This involves a process of selecting the most suitable advertisements through integration with an advertising database. Furthermore, the server generates prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self, presenting specific action steps and necessary preparations. This generated content is sent to the user's device and displayed in an easy-to-read format.

[0104] As an example, consider a user who has set the goal of "planning a trip to Europe by next year." In this case, the server generates a future diary that allows the user to interact with their future self, outlining specific steps for preparing for the trip. The server then provides the user with the necessary information by inserting advertisements for relevant travel agencies and travel packages into the diary. An example of a prompt would be: "User's travel goal: A trip to Europe. Describe specific steps for the trip and incorporate relevant travel package advertisements."

[0105] Thus, in this embodiment of the present invention, users can concretely visualize the process of achieving their goals and receive necessary information and product suggestions.

[0106] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0107] Step 1:

[0108] Users enter their goals or dreams in text format using their own devices.

[0109] Input: Text information about your goal or dream

[0110] Output: Input text information

[0111] In terms of the specific operation, the user enters their goal into the application's form, confirms the content, and presses the submit button, at which point the data is transferred to the server.

[0112] Step 2:

[0113] The server analyzes the received text information and uses a generative AI model to generate future diary content.

[0114] Input: Text information about the user's goals

[0115] Output: Generated future diary content

[0116] In this step, the server invokes an AI generative model (e.g., GPT-3) and generates future scenarios for the user as text based on the input text information.

[0117] Step 3:

[0118] The server inserts advertisements for relevant products and services into the generated future diary content.

[0119] Input: Future diary content, advertising database information

[0120] Output: Future diary content with advertisements inserted

[0121] Specifically, the server analyzes the generated content and retrieves and incorporates highly relevant advertisements from a database based on keywords.

[0122] Step 4:

[0123] The server creates prompts in the generated content that allow the user to interact with their future self.

[0124] Input: Generated future diary content

[0125] Output: Future diary content with built-in prompts

[0126] Here, the server uses natural language generation technology to generate prompts that present the user with steps to achieve their goal in an interactive format.

[0127] Step 5:

[0128] The server sends the completed content to the user's device, and the device displays it.

[0129] Input: Future diary content with prompts and advertisements inserted.

[0130] Output: Content displayed to the user

[0131] In this final step, the device renders the received data in a format suitable for the user interface, presenting it in an easy-to-understand manner for the user.

[0132] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotions may be incorporated. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may use the emotion identification model 59 to estimate the user's emotions and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

[0133] This invention constructs a system that generates a future diary based on goals and dreams entered by the user, and provides support to the user in recognizing concrete actions to take toward their dreams. This system incorporates an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and makes adjustments accordingly.

[0134] First, users input their goals and dreams via their device and describe their current situation and expectations. This input information is sent to a server, which then uses this data to run an emotion engine. The emotion engine uses natural language processing technology to analyze the emotions in the user's text and determine whether those emotions are positive or negative.

[0135] Next, the server uses a generative model to generate future diary content based on the sentiment analysis results. This generative model adjusts the tone and expression according to the user's emotions, making the content more empathetic and supportive. For example, if negative emotions are detected, encouraging comments and positive, uplifting phrases will be inserted into the diary content.

[0136] Furthermore, the server inserts advertisements for relevant products and services into the diary in a way that helps the user achieve their goals. The advertisement content is also adjusted to the user's emotional state and is intended to be presented in a way that is easily accepted by the user.

[0137] Finally, the generated diary content is sent to the device, which displays the information in a way that is intuitive for the user to operate. Through dialogue prompts with their future self, the user can discover concrete steps to achieving their goals and experience emotionally supportive content.

[0138] For example, if a user with the goal of "becoming a successful yoga instructor in three years" inputs their current stress and anxiety, the emotion engine will detect this and describe "their future self enjoying growth at their own pace" in their future diary, introducing various approaches to overcome current anxieties. Advertisements such as courses for obtaining certification and relaxation goods are naturally included, providing the user with practical information. In this way, an invention is implemented that empathizes with the user's emotions, concretizes their dreams, and encourages action.

[0139] The following describes the processing flow.

[0140] Step 1:

[0141] Users register their goals or dreams as specific text inputs using a device. The device provides an interface for input and is designed to facilitate the user experience.

[0142] Step 2:

[0143] The terminal sends the entered text data to the server. The data is formatted in an appropriate format (e.g., JSON) and sent as an HTTP request to the server.

[0144] Step 3:

[0145] The server performs analysis on the received data using an emotion engine. This engine utilizes natural language processing techniques to extract emotional tones from the user's text information and classify them as positive, negative, or neutral.

[0146] Step 4:

[0147] The server uses the results of the emotion analysis to call a generative model and create future diary content. This process may be adjusted to include encouragement and hope depending on the user's emotional tone. If positive emotions are detected, a concrete process toward success is described.

[0148] Step 5:

[0149] The generated future diary content will have advertisements for relevant products or services inserted. The server will appropriately select advertisements relevant to the user's goals from the database and seamlessly integrate them into the content. The advertisement content will also be adjusted to take the user's emotional state into consideration.

[0150] Step 6:

[0151] The server generates prompts to simulate a conversation between the user and their future self. This allows the user to reflect on specific action plans and methods for achieving their goals.

[0152] Step 7:

[0153] The server sends the final diary content and dialogue prompts to the terminal. The data is provided in a format that is easy for the user to understand and intuitively accessible.

[0154] Step 8:

[0155] The device displays the data it receives to the user. The user utilizes this system by reading diary entries that visualize the future and by creating action plans based on prompts.

[0156] (Example 2)

[0157] Next, we will describe Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart device 14 as the "terminal".

[0158] In modern society, many people find it difficult to create clear action plans to achieve their goals and dreams. Furthermore, they often feel a lack of emotional support in the process of achieving their goals. As a result, motivation tends to decline and progress stalls. To solve these problems, a system is needed that proposes concrete action steps toward the user's goals and provides emotional support.

[0159] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0160] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams, means for analyzing emotions based on the input information, and means for using a generative model that generates future diary content according to the results of the emotion analysis. This makes it possible to provide the user with a concrete action plan that is in line with their emotions and to maintain their motivation toward achieving their goals.

[0161] A "user" is an individual or legal entity that uses the system to input information about their goals and dreams.

[0162] "Input information" refers to data about the user's goals, dreams, current situation, and expectations, which they provide through the system.

[0163] "Means" refers to a device or method designed to achieve a specific function.

[0164] "Means of analyzing emotions" refers to a process or technique that analyzes emotions contained in input information using natural language processing technology.

[0165] A "generative model" is an algorithm that uses AI technology to generate specific content based on user input.

[0166] "Future diary content" refers to text or stories that predict future events or situations, created by a generative model based on the user's goals and emotions.

[0167] "Advertisements for goods or services" are promotional content that provides information about products or services relevant to the user's goal achievement.

[0168] A "prompt" is a question or instruction presented to simulate a conversation with your future self.

[0169] "Actions necessary for the process of achieving a goal or dream" refer to the specific steps or actions that a user should take in order to achieve their goal.

[0170] In an embodiment of this invention, a system is constructed in which a user, a terminal, and a server interact with each other.

[0171] The user first uses a terminal to input their goals, dreams, current situation, and expectations. The terminal provides an interface for entering this data using a keyboard or touchscreen. This information is then sent from the terminal to the server.

[0172] The server uses an emotion engine to store and analyze the received information. The emotion engine uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the user's input data and determine their emotional state. For example, it can use Python's Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) library to analyze keywords and context within the text.

[0173] The server then uses a generative AI model, such as an open-source AI text generation model, to generate future diary content that predicts the user's future. The generative AI adjusts the tone and content of the language based on the user's emotional state to produce more empathetic and supportive writing. For example, if a negative emotional state is detected, the diary will include words of encouragement.

[0174] Furthermore, the server incorporates relevant information into the diary to help users achieve their goals, such as advertisements for products and services. These advertisements are tailored to the user's current emotional state and goals.

[0175] The generated future diary content and advertisements are sent from the server to the device. The device displays this content in a user-friendly format. The user can read it and gain inspiration for taking specific actions.

[0176] As a concrete example of how this can be implemented, consider a user aspiring to become a yoga instructor who inputs "I will be a successful yoga instructor in three years." When this user inputs their current anxieties and stresses, the generated diary depicts "their future self enjoying growth at their own pace," and presents advertisements for courses to obtain certification and relaxation goods. As an example of a prompt, the user can simulate a dialogue with their future self through questions such as, "What should I do now to grow as a yoga instructor?"

[0177] This embodiment allows users to be emotionally supported while clarifying the steps to achieving specific goals.

[0178] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0179] Step 1:

[0180] The user provides input information such as goals, dreams, and current status using a device. The device collects this input information and sends it to the server via a network connection. The input information includes text data, which the server receives as is.

[0181] Step 2:

[0182] The server stores the received input information in a database. This stored data is used for sentiment recognition. Next, the server analyzes the text using a natural language processing library (e.g., NLTK) and calculates a sentiment score. This determines whether the text is positive or negative. The output is expressed as a specific numerical score.

[0183] Step 3:

[0184] The server uses the sentiment analysis results to pass data to a generative AI model. The generative AI model generates future diary content based on the information received. If the sentiment score is negative, the generative AI model adjusts to generate encouraging or positive-toned sentences. The output is diary content written in natural language.

[0185] Step 4:

[0186] In addition to the generated diary content, the server selects advertisements for products or services relevant to the user's goal achievement. These advertisements are chosen considering the user's emotional state and are seamlessly integrated into the diary. The advertisement selection process includes data filtering and matching based on the user's goals and current state.

[0187] Step 5:

[0188] The server sends the final generated diary content and advertisements to the device. The content is protected using data encryption technology, and the device decrypts and displays this data. The output is the diary content visually represented on the device.

[0189] Step 6:

[0190] The user reads a diary displayed on the device and interacts with their future self through prompts within it. Through this, the user can explore a path to achieving specific goals and create an action plan. For example, a prompt such as "Please tell me what I should do now to grow as a yoga instructor" is set.

[0191] (Application Example 2)

[0192] Next, we will explain application example 2. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 as a "terminal".

[0193] Modern consumers face a vast amount of information when choosing products and services, making it difficult to make appropriate choices based on their own goals and emotions. Furthermore, emotionally stimulating guidance is necessary for users to take concrete action toward their goals.

[0194] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0195] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams, means for using an emotion engine that analyzes the user's emotional state and adjusts future diary content generated based on the analysis results, and means for inserting promotional information for relevant products or services into the generated future diary content. This enables the user to clarify the actions necessary to move towards their goals and to make fulfilling choices while taking their emotions into consideration.

[0196] A "user" is someone who uses the system to input their goals and dreams and receives support to achieve them.

[0197] "Goals or dreams" refer to specific objectives that users want to achieve or the future they hope to see.

[0198] "Input information" refers to text data that users provide to the system as information necessary to achieve their goals and dreams.

[0199] "Future diary content" refers to text or data generated to visualize future life and circumstances based on goals and dreams set by the user.

[0200] A "generative model" is an algorithm or program used to create future diary content based on input information.

[0201] An "emotion engine" is software that analyzes user input to understand their emotions and generates responses and content that correspond to those emotions.

[0202] "Product or service promotional information" refers to information displayed as an advertisement for a product or service that is relevant to and is believed to help users achieve their goals and emotional states.

[0203] A "server" is a computer system that plays a central role in a system, receiving input information from users, performing processing and calculations, and returning the results to the user.

[0204] This invention begins with the user inputting their goals and dreams using a terminal. The input information is then transmitted from the terminal to a server. The server analyzes the input information about the goals and dreams received from the user using an emotion engine to determine the user's current emotional state. This process utilizes natural language processing technology, such as the Google Cloud Natural Language API.

[0205] The server uses a generative AI model to create future diary content based on the results obtained from the emotion engine. This generative AI model utilizes APIs such as OpenAI® to generate empathetic and supportive diary entries based on the user's dreams and goals, as well as their current emotional state. For example, if negative emotions are analyzed, the system will be adjusted to include encouraging messages.

[0206] The generated diary content includes promotional information for products and services related to the user's goals. This advertising content is selected to align with the user's emotions and dreams; for example, a user who wants to relax might be offered relaxation products.

[0207] Ultimately, the generated future diary content is sent to the device and presented to the user. The content is displayed in a dialogue format with the user's future self, serving as a guide to help them move towards their goals.

[0208] As a concrete example, if a user sets a goal of "becoming a successful yoga instructor in three years" and inputs their current stress levels, the server will use an emotion engine to detect these anxieties and stresses and generate a future diary that takes those emotions into consideration. This diary will include descriptions of the user enjoying their growth as a yoga instructor and information about available courses.

[0209] Examples of prompts to input into a generative AI model:

[0210] "User's current situation: Wants time to relax. User's emotions: Feeling stressed. Please generate a future diary."

[0211] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0212] Step 1:

[0213] Users input information about their goals or dreams and their current situation through their device. The entered data is in text format and is sent to the server. Examples of input information include "I want to become a yoga instructor in three years" and "I am currently feeling stressed."

[0214] Step 2:

[0215] The server analyzes the user's emotions using an emotion engine based on the received input information. Using natural language processing technologies such as the Google Cloud Natural Language API, it determines whether the user's emotions are positive or negative from the text data. The analysis results are output as emotion data for use in the next step.

[0216] Step 3:

[0217] The server uses the sentiment analysis results and a generative AI model to generate future diary content. Leveraging the OpenAI API, it generates a future vision based on the user's goals, dreams, and emotional state as text. During this generation process, the tone and content of the diary are adjusted based on the sentiment data to ensure it is empathetic and supportive. The generated diary content is then output.

[0218] Step 4:

[0219] The server inserts promotional information for products and services related to the generated future diary content. The selection of ads is tailored to the user's goals and emotions, and is seamlessly integrated into the generated diary. For example, a user seeking relaxation might see ads for yoga classes or relaxation products. The adjusted diary content is then generated as the final output.

[0220] Step 5:

[0221] The device receives the final output of the future diary content and displays it to the user in an intuitive and easy-to-use format. By viewing the diary, the user can enjoy an experience like having a dialogue with their future self and gain concrete guidance for action.

[0222] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart device 14. In the smart device 14, the control unit 46A causes the output device 40 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 38B acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 38B to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0223] Data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (registered trademark) (Internet search).<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (registered trademark) (Internet search) <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">Examples of generative AI include the following. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and with inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images. The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference results in data formats such as audio data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[0224] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and the specific processing may also be performed by the smart device 14.

[0225] [Second Embodiment]

[0226] Figure 3 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 210 according to the second embodiment.

[0227] As shown in Figure 3, the data processing system 210 includes a data processing device 12 and smart glasses 214. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0228] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 is an example of a "computer" related to the technology of this disclosure. The computer 22 comprises a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication interface 26 is connected to a network 54. An example of the network 54 is a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0229] The smart glasses 214 include a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, and a communication interface 44. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, speaker 240, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0230] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user 20 and receives instructions from the user 20. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user 20, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.

[0231] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor, and captures images of the area around the user 20 (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the width of a typical healthy person's field of vision).

[0232] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.

[0233] Figure 4 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart glasses 214. As shown in Figure 4, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0234] The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" relating to the technology of this disclosure. The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0235] The storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290.

[0236] In the smart glasses 214, the processor 46 performs the reception output processing. The storage 50 stores the reception output program 60. The processor 46 reads the reception output program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read reception output program 60 on the RAM 48. The reception output processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the reception output program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

[0237] Next, the identification processing performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal".

[0238] The embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail below. This system visualizes the process of achieving goals for the user by generating a future diary based on the goals and dreams entered by the user.

[0239] First, users input their goals and dreams in text format via a device such as a smartphone or computer. The entered information is then transmitted to the server using communication functions.

[0240] Based on the received information, the server utilizes a generative model that processes natural language to generate future diary content depicting the user's goal achievement. This generative model references past success stories and performance data, enabling it to depict the most realistic achievement process for the user's goals.

[0241] Next, the server inserts advertisements for products and services related to goal achievement into the generated future diary content. This involves a process of accurately selecting highly relevant information through integration with an advertising database.

[0242] Furthermore, the server generates prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self. These prompts answer questions the user might have and indicate specific action steps and necessary changes.

[0243] Finally, the server sends the entire set of content to the device, which displays it in a user-friendly format. In this process, the user can gain clear guidance regarding their thoughts and next actions.

[0244] For example, a user with the goal of "making their restaurant successful in five years" can see themselves in their future diary, having "received high ratings as a popular restaurant in the area." The diary describes specific actions taken, such as "first conducting market research and implementing an effective menu PR strategy," and relevant advertisements include information from kitchenware manufacturers. In this way, the system allows users to visualize their actual action plans and obtain necessary product information.

[0245] The following describes the processing flow.

[0246] Step 1:

[0247] The user uses the device to input their goals and dreams as specific text. The device provides an input form through its user interface, allowing the user to enter the information.

[0248] Step 2:

[0249] The terminal sends the entered data to the server. The data is formatted as an HTTP request and sent to the specified endpoint on the server.

[0250] Step 3:

[0251] The server parses the received data and prepares to call the generative model. It checks if the input information is received in the correct format and generates an error message if there are any issues.

[0252] Step 4:

[0253] The server uses a generative model to generate future diary content based on the input information it receives. The generative model uses natural language processing techniques to describe possible scenarios for achieving the goal.

[0254] Step 5:

[0255] The server inserts advertising information related to the future diary entries that have been generated. The advertisements are selected and inserted for products and services that are relevant to the goal. This includes querying the advertising database and selecting the appropriate advertisements.

[0256] Step 6:

[0257] The server generates prompts for the user to interact with their future self. These prompts are created in the form of questions and advice that support the user in achieving their goals, based on their future journal entries.

[0258] Step 7:

[0259] The server sends the final future diary content and dialogue prompts to the terminal. The data is formatted in a way that is easily accessible to the user.

[0260] Step 8:

[0261] The device displays the data it receives to the user. The user can read a future diary and obtain a concrete action plan towards their goals through conversational prompts.

[0262] (Example 1)

[0263] Next, we will describe Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0264] In modern society, people find it difficult to create concrete plans to achieve their goals and dreams. There is a need for systems that help effectively achieve goals by visualizing the path to achieving them and clarifying the necessary actions.

[0265] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0266] This invention includes a server mechanism for receiving data from a user regarding their goals or dreams, a mechanism for utilizing a generative model that generates a future diary using natural language processing based on the data, and a mechanism for incorporating advertising content for products or services related to the generated future diary. This enables the user to visualize their goal achievement process and have an actionable plan of action.

[0267] A "user" refers to an individual who uses the system to provide information about their goals and dreams and to experience the goal-achievement process.

[0268] "Data" refers to specific information about goals or dreams that users input into the system, and is expressed in text format or other similar methods.

[0269] "Natural language processing" refers to the technology that enables computers to understand and process human language, and is particularly used to create generated content based on the user's goals.

[0270] "Future Diary" is hypothetical content created using a generative AI model that depicts the user's goal achievement, and serves as a means for users to visualize the process leading up to that achievement.

[0271] "Generative modeling" refers to a set of algorithms and technologies that use natural language processing based on input data to generate future diaries.

[0272] "Promotional content" refers to information about products or services related to the generated future diary, and is provided as an advertisement to help users achieve their goals.

[0273] An "information processing device" refers to a computer-based hardware or software system that constitutes an entire system, receives and processes input from users, and provides generated content.

[0274] This invention is a system that allows users to visualize their goals and dreams and concretely experience the process of achieving them. The system mainly consists of the user's terminal, a server, and a communication network, and functions through data exchange between these elements.

[0275] Users first use a device such as a smartphone or computer to input their goals and dreams in detail in text format. The entered data is then transmitted to the server via the device's communication function. To ensure the confidentiality and security of the data, it is recommended to use encryption technology for this communication.

[0276] The server receives the user's data and analyzes it using a generative AI model that performs natural language processing. This generative AI model incorporates past success stories and performance data, and automatically generates a future diary that describes realistic steps for the user to achieve their goals. The generated diary includes prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self, showing specific action steps and necessary changes required to achieve their goals.

[0277] Furthermore, the server incorporates advertisements related to the generated diary entries. This is to provide products and services highly relevant to the generated content and the user's goals, and it selects and uses appropriate advertisements from its advertising database. These advertisements also offer suggestions for specific means that users can utilize to achieve their goals.

[0278] The generated future diary content and prompts are sent from the server to the terminal. The terminal displays the received content in a format that is easy for the user to view. The display employs an intuitive user interface and easy-to-read format, designed to help the user easily visualize achieving their goals.

[0279] For example, if a user has the goal of "making their own cafe successful in five years," their future diary will depict them as having "gained recognition as a well-regarded cafe in the community." This diary will include specific actions such as "conducting market research and adopting an effective promotional strategy." Related advertisements will also be presented, such as information on coffee makers and interior design services. This allows the user to visualize their own action plan.

[0280] An example of a prompt might be, "What steps are necessary to make my cafe a thriving business within five years?" This prompt allows the user to consider a concrete action plan to achieve their goal.

[0281] The flow of the specific process in Example 1 will be described using FIG. 11.

[0282] Step 1:

[0283] Using a terminal such as a smartphone or a computer, the user inputs their goals and dreams as text. In the input form, guidelines for enhancing the specificity of the goals are displayed, which makes it easier for the user to input detailed information. The input data is temporarily stored in the terminal and prepared for transmission to the server. The input for this step is the text data of the user's goals and dreams, and the output is the data converted into a format that can be sent to the server.

[0284] Step 2:

[0285] The terminal sends the data input by the user to the server via the Internet. Here, an encryption protocol (e.g., HTTPS) is used to protect the privacy and security of the data. The terminal provides feedback to the user to confirm the success of the data transmission. The input for this step is the data prepared in the terminal, and the output is the data securely sent to the server.

[0286] Step 3:

[0287] The server receives the data sent from the terminal and inputs the data into the generative AI model for natural language processing. The generative AI model analyzes the user's input data and matches it with the pre-learned successful case data. Through this process, the server generates a future diary depicting a realistic process for the user to achieve their goals. The input for this step is the user's data, and the output is the generated future diary content.

[0288] Step 4:

[0289] The server inserts advertisements related to the generated future diary entries. This process involves accessing an advertising database to select products and services relevant to the user's goals. The selected advertisements are then embedded in the appropriate locations within the future diary entries. The inputs for this step are the future diary entries and the advertising database, and the output is the diary content with the advertisements inserted.

[0290] Step 5:

[0291] The server generates prompts that allow the user to simulate a conversation with their future self. These prompts suggest answers to questions the user might have and present concrete action steps. For example, a prompt might be generated asking, "What steps are necessary to make my cafe a thriving business within five years?" The input is future diary data, and the output is the generated prompt text.

[0292] Step 6:

[0293] The server sends the completed future diary content and prompts to the terminal. The user's terminal displays the received content in an appropriate format. In doing so, the terminal provides a user-friendly UI and navigation so that the user can intuitively understand the information. The input for this step is the content received from the server, and the output is the user-facing content displayed on the terminal.

[0294] (Application Example 1)

[0295] Next, we will explain Application Example 1. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0296] In modern society, individuals set a wide range of goals and dreams, and are particularly required to create clear plans for purchasing or experiencing things. However, visualizing the specific steps to achieve these goals and accurately obtaining the necessary information and products is not easy. Traditional systems have the problem that the process for achieving goals is not clearly shown, and users do not receive sufficient information on the actions and products necessary to achieve their goals.

[0297] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0298] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams; means for using a generative model that generates future diary content based on the input information; means for inserting advertisements for relevant products or services into the generated future diary content; and means for setting goals related to products or experiences that the user intends to purchase, and visualizing and presenting the process of achieving those goals. This enables the user to concretely visualize the process of achieving their goals or dreams, obtain necessary product information, and proceed with clear guidelines.

[0299] A "goal or dream" refers to a specific matter or objective that a user hopes to achieve in the future, and the result they wish to attain.

[0300] "Input information" refers to text data about the goals and dreams that users provide to the system.

[0301] A "generative model" is an algorithm or program that uses natural language processing technology to create future diary content based on goals set by the user.

[0302] "Future diary content" refers to text content that specifically describes a future scenario in which the user's goals have been achieved.

[0303] An "advertisement" is information about products or services related to the goals that a user intends to achieve, inserted into future diary content.

[0304] "Visualization" means presenting the process and steps of goal achievement to the user in a form that allows for a concrete and clear mental image.

[0305] "Products or experiences to be purchased" refer to specific items or services that a user plans to obtain or experience in the future.

[0306] To implement the present invention, a series of programs utilizing a user terminal and a server are required. In this system, first, the user uses a terminal such as a smartphone to input information regarding goals and dreams. The input information is transmitted to the server via the Internet. The server uses a generated AI model (e.g., GPT-3) based on this information to create future diary content.

[0307] Advertisements for products or services related to the goals set by the user are inserted into the generated future diary content. This includes a process of selecting the optimal advertisement through cooperation with an advertisement database. Furthermore, the server generates prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self, presenting specific action steps and necessary preparations. The generated content is transmitted to the user terminal and displayed in an easy-to-view form.

[0308] As an example, consider a user who sets a goal of "planning a trip to Europe by next year". In this case, the server generates a future diary showing the specific steps of trip preparation in a form that allows the user to interact with their future self. Then, by inserting advertisements for related travel agencies or travel packages into the diary, the necessary information is provided to the user. An example of a prompt sentence is: "The user's travel goal: A trip to Europe. Describe the specific steps of the trip and incorporate relevant travel package advertisements into it."

[0309] Thus, in this embodiment of the present invention, users can concretely visualize the process of achieving their goals and receive necessary information and product suggestions.

[0310] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0311] Step 1:

[0312] Users enter their goals or dreams in text format using their own devices.

[0313] Input: Text information about your goal or dream

[0314] Output: Input text information

[0315] In terms of the specific operation, the user enters their goal into the application's form, confirms the content, and presses the submit button, at which point the data is transferred to the server.

[0316] Step 2:

[0317] The server analyzes the received text information and uses a generative AI model to generate future diary content.

[0318] Input: Text information about the user's goals

[0319] Output: Generated future diary content

[0320] In this step, the server invokes an AI generative model (e.g., GPT-3) and generates future scenarios for the user as text based on the input text information.

[0321] Step 3:

[0322] The server inserts advertisements for relevant products and services into the generated future diary content.

[0323] Input: Future diary content, advertising database information

[0324] Output: Future diary content with advertisements inserted

[0325] Specifically, the server analyzes the generated content and retrieves and incorporates highly relevant advertisements from a database based on keywords.

[0326] Step 4:

[0327] The server creates prompts in the generated content that allow the user to interact with their future self.

[0328] Input: Generated future diary content

[0329] Output: Future diary content with built-in prompts

[0330] Here, the server uses natural language generation technology to generate prompts that present the user with steps to achieve their goal in an interactive format.

[0331] Step 5:

[0332] The server sends the completed content to the user's device, and the device displays it.

[0333] Input: Future diary content with prompts and advertisements inserted.

[0334] Output: Content displayed to the user

[0335] In this final step, the device renders the received data in a format suitable for the user interface, presenting it in an easy-to-understand manner for the user.

[0336] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotions may be incorporated. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may use the emotion identification model 59 to estimate the user's emotions and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

[0337] This invention constructs a system that generates a future diary based on goals and dreams entered by the user, and provides support to the user in recognizing concrete actions to take toward their dreams. This system incorporates an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and makes adjustments accordingly.

[0338] First, users input their goals and dreams via their device and describe their current situation and expectations. This input information is sent to a server, which then uses this data to run an emotion engine. The emotion engine uses natural language processing technology to analyze the emotions in the user's text and determine whether those emotions are positive or negative.

[0339] Next, the server uses a generative model to generate future diary content based on the sentiment analysis results. This generative model adjusts the tone and expression according to the user's emotions, making the content more empathetic and supportive. For example, if negative emotions are detected, encouraging comments and positive, uplifting phrases will be inserted into the diary content.

[0340] Furthermore, the server inserts advertisements for relevant products and services into the diary in a way that helps the user achieve their goals. The advertisement content is also adjusted to the user's emotional state and is intended to be presented in a way that is easily accepted by the user.

[0341] Finally, the generated diary content is sent to the device, which displays the information in a way that is intuitive for the user to operate. Through dialogue prompts with their future self, the user can discover concrete steps to achieving their goals and experience emotionally supportive content.

[0342] For example, if a user with the goal of "becoming a successful yoga instructor in three years" inputs their current stress and anxiety, the emotion engine will detect this and describe "their future self enjoying growth at their own pace" in their future diary, introducing various approaches to overcome current anxieties. Advertisements such as courses for obtaining certification and relaxation goods are naturally included, providing the user with practical information. In this way, an invention is implemented that empathizes with the user's emotions, concretizes their dreams, and encourages action.

[0343] The following describes the processing flow.

[0344] Step 1:

[0345] Users register their goals or dreams as specific text inputs using a device. The device provides an interface for input and is designed to facilitate the user experience.

[0346] Step 2:

[0347] The terminal sends the entered text data to the server. The data is formatted in an appropriate format (e.g., JSON) and sent as an HTTP request to the server.

[0348] Step 3:

[0349] The server performs analysis on the received data using an emotion engine. This engine utilizes natural language processing techniques to extract emotional tones from the user's text information and classify them as positive, negative, or neutral.

[0350] Step 4:

[0351] The server uses the results of the emotion analysis to call a generative model and create future diary content. This process may be adjusted to include encouragement and hope depending on the user's emotional tone. If positive emotions are detected, a concrete process toward success is described.

[0352] Step 5:

[0353] The generated future diary content will have advertisements for relevant products or services inserted. The server will appropriately select advertisements relevant to the user's goals from the database and seamlessly integrate them into the content. The advertisement content will also be adjusted to take the user's emotional state into consideration.

[0354] Step 6:

[0355] The server generates prompts to simulate a conversation between the user and their future self. This allows the user to reflect on specific action plans and methods for achieving their goals.

[0356] Step 7:

[0357] The server sends the final diary content and dialogue prompts to the terminal. The data is provided in a format that is easy for the user to understand and intuitively accessible.

[0358] Step 8:

[0359] The device displays the data it receives to the user. The user utilizes this system by reading diary entries that visualize the future and by creating action plans based on prompts.

[0360] (Example 2)

[0361] Next, we will describe Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal".

[0362] In modern society, many people find it difficult to create clear action plans to achieve their goals and dreams. Furthermore, they often feel a lack of emotional support in the process of achieving their goals. As a result, motivation tends to decline and progress stalls. To solve these problems, a system is needed that proposes concrete action steps toward the user's goals and provides emotional support.

[0363] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0364] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams, means for analyzing emotions based on the input information, and means for using a generative model that generates future diary content according to the results of the emotion analysis. This makes it possible to provide the user with a concrete action plan that is in line with their emotions and to maintain their motivation toward achieving their goals.

[0365] A "user" is an individual or legal entity that uses the system to input information about their goals and dreams.

[0366] "Input information" refers to data about the user's goals, dreams, current situation, and expectations, which they provide through the system.

[0367] "Means" refers to a device or method designed to achieve a specific function.

[0368] "Means of analyzing emotions" refers to a process or technique that analyzes emotions contained in input information using natural language processing technology.

[0369] A "generative model" is an algorithm that uses AI technology to generate specific content based on user input.

[0370] "Future diary content" refers to text or stories that predict future events or situations, created by a generative model based on the user's goals and emotions.

[0371] "Advertisements for goods or services" are promotional content that provides information about products or services relevant to the user's goal achievement.

[0372] A "prompt" is a question or instruction presented to simulate a conversation with your future self.

[0373] "Actions necessary for the process of achieving a goal or dream" refer to the specific steps or actions that a user should take in order to achieve their goal.

[0374] In an embodiment of this invention, a system is constructed in which a user, a terminal, and a server interact with each other.

[0375] The user first uses a terminal to input their goals, dreams, current situation, and expectations. The terminal provides an interface for entering this data using a keyboard or touchscreen. This information is then sent from the terminal to the server.

[0376] The server uses an emotion engine to store and analyze the received information. The emotion engine uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the user's input data and determine their emotional state. For example, it can use Python's Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) library to analyze keywords and context within the text.

[0377] The server then uses a generative AI model, such as an open-source AI text generation model, to generate future diary content that predicts the user's future. The generative AI adjusts the tone and content of the language based on the user's emotional state to produce more empathetic and supportive writing. For example, if a negative emotional state is detected, the diary will include words of encouragement.

[0378] Furthermore, the server incorporates relevant information into the diary to help users achieve their goals, such as advertisements for products and services. These advertisements are tailored to the user's current emotional state and goals.

[0379] The generated future diary content and advertisements are sent from the server to the device. The device displays this content in a user-friendly format. The user can read it and gain inspiration for taking specific actions.

[0380] As a concrete example of how this can be implemented, consider a user aspiring to become a yoga instructor who inputs "I will be a successful yoga instructor in three years." When this user inputs their current anxieties and stresses, the generated diary depicts "their future self enjoying growth at their own pace," and presents advertisements for courses to obtain certification and relaxation goods. As an example of a prompt, the user can simulate a dialogue with their future self through questions such as, "What should I do now to grow as a yoga instructor?"

[0381] This embodiment allows users to be emotionally supported while clarifying the steps to achieving specific goals.

[0382] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0383] Step 1:

[0384] The user provides input information such as goals, dreams, and current status using a device. The device collects this input information and sends it to the server via a network connection. The input information includes text data, which the server receives as is.

[0385] Step 2:

[0386] The server stores the received input information in a database. This stored data is used for sentiment recognition. Next, the server analyzes the text using a natural language processing library (e.g., NLTK) and calculates a sentiment score. This determines whether the text is positive or negative. The output is expressed as a specific numerical score.

[0387] Step 3:

[0388] The server uses the sentiment analysis results to pass data to a generative AI model. The generative AI model generates future diary content based on the information received. If the sentiment score is negative, the generative AI model adjusts to generate encouraging or positive-toned sentences. The output is diary content written in natural language.

[0389] Step 4:

[0390] In addition to the generated diary content, the server selects advertisements for products or services relevant to the user's goal achievement. These advertisements are chosen considering the user's emotional state and are seamlessly integrated into the diary. The advertisement selection process includes data filtering and matching based on the user's goals and current state.

[0391] Step 5:

[0392] The server sends the final generated diary content and advertisements to the device. The content is protected using data encryption technology, and the device decrypts and displays this data. The output is the diary content visually represented on the device.

[0393] Step 6:

[0394] The user reads a diary displayed on the device and interacts with their future self through prompts within it. Through this, the user can explore a path to achieving specific goals and create an action plan. For example, a prompt such as "Please tell me what I should do now to grow as a yoga instructor" is set.

[0395] (Application Example 2)

[0396] Next, we will explain application example 2. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0397] Modern consumers face a vast amount of information when choosing products and services, making it difficult to make appropriate choices based on their own goals and emotions. Furthermore, emotionally stimulating guidance is necessary for users to take concrete action toward their goals.

[0398] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0399] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams, means for using an emotion engine that analyzes the user's emotional state and adjusts future diary content generated based on the analysis results, and means for inserting promotional information for relevant products or services into the generated future diary content. This enables the user to clarify the actions necessary to move towards their goals and to make fulfilling choices while taking their emotions into consideration.

[0400] A "user" is someone who uses the system to input their goals and dreams and receives support to achieve them.

[0401] "Goals or dreams" refer to specific objectives that users want to achieve or the future they hope to see.

[0402] "Input information" refers to text data that users provide to the system as information necessary to achieve their goals and dreams.

[0403] "Future diary content" refers to text or data generated to visualize future life and circumstances based on goals and dreams set by the user.

[0404] A "generative model" is an algorithm or program used to create future diary content based on input information.

[0405] An "emotion engine" is software that analyzes user input to understand their emotions and generates responses and content that correspond to those emotions.

[0406] "Product or service promotional information" refers to information displayed as an advertisement for a product or service that is relevant to and is believed to help users achieve their goals and emotional states.

[0407] A "server" is a computer system that plays a central role in a system, receiving input information from users, performing processing and calculations, and returning the results to the user.

[0408] This invention begins with the user inputting their goals and dreams using a terminal. The input information is then transmitted from the terminal to a server. The server analyzes the input information about the goals and dreams received from the user using an emotion engine to determine the user's current emotional state. This process utilizes natural language processing technology, such as the Google Cloud Natural Language API.

[0409] The server uses a generative AI model to create future diary content based on the results obtained from the emotion engine. This generative AI model utilizes APIs such as OpenAI to generate empathetic and supportive diary entries based on the user's dreams and goals, as well as their current emotional state. For example, if negative emotions are analyzed, the diary entries will be adjusted to include encouraging messages.

[0410] The generated diary content includes promotional information for products and services related to the user's goals. This advertising content is selected to align with the user's emotions and dreams; for example, a user who wants to relax might be offered relaxation products.

[0411] Ultimately, the generated future diary content is sent to the device and presented to the user. The content is displayed in a dialogue format with the user's future self, serving as a guide to help them move towards their goals.

[0412] As a concrete example, if a user sets a goal of "becoming a successful yoga instructor in three years" and inputs their current stress levels, the server will use an emotion engine to detect these anxieties and stresses and generate a future diary that takes those emotions into consideration. This diary will include descriptions of the user enjoying their growth as a yoga instructor and information about available courses.

[0413] Examples of prompts to input into a generative AI model:

[0414] "User's current situation: Wants time to relax. User's emotions: Feeling stressed. Please generate a future diary."

[0415] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0416] Step 1:

[0417] Users input information about their goals or dreams and their current situation through their device. The entered data is in text format and is sent to the server. Examples of input information include "I want to become a yoga instructor in three years" and "I am currently feeling stressed."

[0418] Step 2:

[0419] The server analyzes the user's emotions using an emotion engine based on the received input information. Using natural language processing technologies such as the Google Cloud Natural Language API, it determines whether the user's emotions are positive or negative from the text data. The analysis results are output as emotion data for use in the next step.

[0420] Step 3:

[0421] The server uses the sentiment analysis results and a generative AI model to generate future diary content. Leveraging the OpenAI API, it generates a future vision based on the user's goals, dreams, and emotional state as text. During this generation process, the tone and content of the diary are adjusted based on the sentiment data to ensure it is empathetic and supportive. The generated diary content is then output.

[0422] Step 4:

[0423] The server inserts promotional information for products and services related to the generated future diary content. The selection of ads is tailored to the user's goals and emotions, and is seamlessly integrated into the generated diary. For example, a user seeking relaxation might see ads for yoga classes or relaxation products. The adjusted diary content is then generated as the final output.

[0424] Step 5:

[0425] The device receives the final output of the future diary content and displays it to the user in an intuitive and easy-to-use format. By viewing the diary, the user can enjoy an experience like having a dialogue with their future self and gain concrete guidance for action.

[0426] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0427] Data generation model 58 is a type of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). One example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search) <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">Examples of generative AI include the following. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and with inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images. The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference results in data formats such as audio data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[0428] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and the specific processing may also be performed by the smart glasses 214.

[0429] [Third Embodiment]

[0430] Figure 5 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment.

[0431] As shown in Figure 5, the data processing system 310 includes a data processing device 12 and a headset terminal 314. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0432] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 is an example of a "computer" related to the technology of this disclosure. The computer 22 comprises a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication interface 26 is connected to a network 54. An example of the network 54 is a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0433] The headset terminal 314 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a display 343. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and display 343 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0434] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user 20 and receives instructions from the user 20. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user 20, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.

[0435] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor, and captures images of the area around the user 20 (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the width of a typical healthy person's field of vision).

[0436] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.

[0437] Figure 6 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the headset terminal 314. As shown in Figure 6, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0438] The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" relating to the technology of this disclosure. The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0439] The storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290.

[0440] In the headset terminal 314, the processor 46 performs the reception output processing. The storage 50 stores the reception output program 60. The processor 46 reads the reception output program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read reception output program 60 on the RAM 48. The reception output processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the reception output program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

[0441] Next, the specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the headset terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal".

[0442] The embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail below. This system visualizes the process of achieving goals for the user by generating a future diary based on the goals and dreams entered by the user.

[0443] First, users input their goals and dreams in text format via a device such as a smartphone or computer. The entered information is then transmitted to the server using communication functions.

[0444] Based on the received information, the server utilizes a generative model that processes natural language to generate future diary content depicting the user's goal achievement. This generative model references past success stories and performance data, enabling it to depict the most realistic achievement process for the user's goals.

[0445] Next, the server inserts advertisements for products and services related to goal achievement into the generated future diary content. This involves a process of accurately selecting highly relevant information through integration with an advertising database.

[0446] Furthermore, the server generates prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self. These prompts answer questions the user might have and indicate specific action steps and necessary changes.

[0447] Finally, the server sends the entire set of content to the device, which displays it in a user-friendly format. In this process, the user can gain clear guidance regarding their thoughts and next actions.

[0448] For example, a user with the goal of "making their restaurant successful in five years" can see themselves in their future diary, having "received high ratings as a popular restaurant in the area." The diary describes specific actions taken, such as "first conducting market research and implementing an effective menu PR strategy," and relevant advertisements include information from kitchenware manufacturers. In this way, the system allows users to visualize their actual action plans and obtain necessary product information.

[0449] The following describes the processing flow.

[0450] Step 1:

[0451] The user uses the device to input their goals and dreams as specific text. The device provides an input form through its user interface, allowing the user to enter the information.

[0452] Step 2:

[0453] The terminal sends the entered data to the server. The data is formatted as an HTTP request and sent to the specified endpoint on the server.

[0454] Step 3:

[0455] The server parses the received data and prepares to call the generative model. It checks if the input information is received in the correct format and generates an error message if there are any issues.

[0456] Step 4:

[0457] The server uses a generative model to generate future diary content based on the input information it receives. The generative model uses natural language processing techniques to describe possible scenarios for achieving the goal.

[0458] Step 5:

[0459] The server inserts advertising information related to the future diary entries that have been generated. The advertisements are selected and inserted for products and services that are relevant to the goal. This includes querying the advertising database and selecting the appropriate advertisements.

[0460] Step 6:

[0461] The server generates prompts for the user to interact with their future self. These prompts are created in the form of questions and advice that support the user in achieving their goals, based on their future journal entries.

[0462] Step 7:

[0463] The server sends the final future diary content and dialogue prompts to the terminal. The data is formatted in a way that is easily accessible to the user.

[0464] Step 8:

[0465] The device displays the data it receives to the user. The user can read a future diary and obtain a concrete action plan towards their goals through conversational prompts.

[0466] (Example 1)

[0467] Next, we will describe Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the headset-type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0468] In modern society, people find it difficult to create concrete plans to achieve their goals and dreams. There is a need for systems that help effectively achieve goals by visualizing the path to achieving them and clarifying the necessary actions.

[0469] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0470] This invention includes a server mechanism for receiving data from a user regarding their goals or dreams, a mechanism for utilizing a generative model that generates a future diary using natural language processing based on the data, and a mechanism for incorporating advertising content for products or services related to the generated future diary. This enables the user to visualize their goal achievement process and have an actionable plan of action.

[0471] A "user" refers to an individual who uses the system to provide information about their goals and dreams and to experience the goal-achievement process.

[0472] "Data" refers to specific information about goals or dreams that users input into the system, and is expressed in text format or other similar methods.

[0473] "Natural language processing" refers to the technology that enables computers to understand and process human language, and is particularly used to create generated content based on the user's goals.

[0474] "Future Diary" is hypothetical content created using a generative AI model that depicts the user's goal achievement, and serves as a means for users to visualize the process leading up to that achievement.

[0475] "Generative modeling" refers to a set of algorithms and technologies that use natural language processing based on input data to generate future diaries.

[0476] "Promotional content" refers to information about products or services related to the generated future diary, and is provided as an advertisement to help users achieve their goals.

[0477] An "information processing device" refers to a computer-based hardware or software system that constitutes an entire system, receives and processes input from users, and provides generated content.

[0478] This invention is a system that allows users to visualize their goals and dreams and concretely experience the process of achieving them. The system mainly consists of the user's terminal, a server, and a communication network, and functions through data exchange between these elements.

[0479] Users first use a device such as a smartphone or computer to input their goals and dreams in detail in text format. The entered data is then transmitted to the server via the device's communication function. To ensure the confidentiality and security of the data, it is recommended to use encryption technology for this communication.

[0480] The server receives the user's data and analyzes it using a generative AI model that performs natural language processing. This generative AI model incorporates past success stories and performance data, and automatically generates a future diary that describes realistic steps for the user to achieve their goals. The generated diary includes prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self, showing specific action steps and necessary changes required to achieve their goals.

[0481] Furthermore, the server incorporates advertisements related to the generated diary entries. This is to provide products and services highly relevant to the generated content and the user's goals, and it selects and uses appropriate advertisements from its advertising database. These advertisements also offer suggestions for specific means that users can utilize to achieve their goals.

[0482] The generated future diary content and prompts are sent from the server to the terminal. The terminal displays the received content in a format that is easy for the user to view. The display employs an intuitive user interface and easy-to-read format, designed to help the user easily visualize achieving their goals.

[0483] For example, if a user has the goal of "making their own cafe successful in five years," their future diary will depict them as having "gained recognition as a well-regarded cafe in the community." This diary will include specific actions such as "conducting market research and adopting an effective promotional strategy." Related advertisements will also be presented, such as information on coffee makers and interior design services. This allows the user to visualize their own action plan.

[0484] An example of a prompt might be, "What steps are necessary to make my cafe a thriving business within five years?" This prompt allows the user to consider a concrete action plan to achieve their goal.

[0485] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0486] Step 1:

[0487] Users input their goals and dreams as text using a device such as a smartphone or computer. The input form displays guidelines to help users specify their goals, making it easier for them to enter detailed information. The entered data is temporarily stored on the device and prepared for transmission to the server. The input in this step is text data of the user's goals and dreams, and the output is data converted into a format that can be sent to the server.

[0488] Step 2:

[0489] The terminal transmits the data entered by the user to the server via the internet. Here, an encryption protocol (e.g., HTTPS) is used to protect data privacy and security. The terminal provides feedback to the user to confirm the success of the data transmission. In this step, the input is data prepared on the terminal, and the output is data securely transmitted to the server.

[0490] Step 3:

[0491] The server receives data sent from the terminal and inputs it into a generative AI model for natural language processing. The generative AI model analyzes the user's input data and compares it with pre-trained success story data. Through this process, the server generates a future diary that depicts a realistic process for achieving the user's goals. The input for this step is the user's data, and the output is the generated future diary content.

[0492] Step 4:

[0493] The server inserts advertisements related to the generated future diary entries. This process involves accessing an advertising database to select products and services relevant to the user's goals. The selected advertisements are then embedded in the appropriate locations within the future diary entries. The inputs for this step are the future diary entries and the advertising database, and the output is the diary content with the advertisements inserted.

[0494] Step 5:

[0495] The server generates prompts that allow the user to simulate a conversation with their future self. These prompts suggest answers to questions the user might have and present concrete action steps. For example, a prompt might be generated asking, "What steps are necessary to make my cafe a thriving business within five years?" The input is future diary data, and the output is the generated prompt text.

[0496] Step 6:

[0497] The server sends the completed future diary content and prompts to the terminal. The user's terminal displays the received content in an appropriate format. In doing so, the terminal provides a user-friendly UI and navigation so that the user can intuitively understand the information. The input for this step is the content received from the server, and the output is the user-facing content displayed on the terminal.

[0498] (Application Example 1)

[0499] Next, we will explain Application Example 1. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the headset-type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0500] In modern society, individuals set a wide range of goals and dreams, and are particularly required to create clear plans for purchasing or experiencing things. However, visualizing the specific steps to achieve these goals and accurately obtaining the necessary information and products is not easy. Traditional systems have the problem that the process for achieving goals is not clearly shown, and users do not receive sufficient information on the actions and products necessary to achieve their goals.

[0501] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0502] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams; means for using a generative model that generates future diary content based on the input information; means for inserting advertisements for relevant products or services into the generated future diary content; and means for setting goals related to products or experiences that the user intends to purchase, and visualizing and presenting the process of achieving those goals. This enables the user to concretely visualize the process of achieving their goals or dreams, obtain necessary product information, and proceed with clear guidelines.

[0503] A "goal or dream" refers to a specific matter or objective that a user hopes to achieve in the future, and the result they wish to attain.

[0504] "Input information" refers to text data about the goals and dreams that users provide to the system.

[0505] A "generative model" is an algorithm or program that uses natural language processing technology to create future diary content based on goals set by the user.

[0506] "Future diary content" refers to text content that specifically describes a future scenario in which the user's goals have been achieved.

[0507] "Advertisements" are pieces of information about products or services related to the goals the user is trying to achieve, which are inserted into future diary content.

[0508] "Visualization" means presenting the process and steps for achieving a goal in a way that allows the user to visualize them concretely and clearly.

[0509] "Products or experiences that a user intends to purchase" refers to specific goods or services that the user plans to acquire or experience in the future.

[0510] To implement this invention, a series of programs utilizing a user terminal and a server are required. In this system, the user first inputs information about their goals and dreams using a terminal such as a smartphone. The input information is transmitted to the server via the internet. Based on this information, the server uses a generative AI model (e.g., GPT-3) to create future diary content.

[0511] The generated future diary content includes advertisements for products and services related to the user's set goals. This involves a process of selecting the most suitable advertisements through integration with an advertising database. Furthermore, the server generates prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self, presenting specific action steps and necessary preparations. This generated content is sent to the user's device and displayed in an easy-to-read format.

[0512] As an example, consider a user who has set the goal of "planning a trip to Europe by next year." In this case, the server generates a future diary that allows the user to interact with their future self, outlining specific steps for preparing for the trip. The server then provides the user with the necessary information by inserting advertisements for relevant travel agencies and travel packages into the diary. An example of a prompt would be: "User's travel goal: A trip to Europe. Describe specific steps for the trip and incorporate relevant travel package advertisements."

[0513] Thus, in this embodiment of the present invention, users can concretely visualize the process of achieving their goals and receive necessary information and product suggestions.

[0514] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0515] Step 1:

[0516] Users enter their goals or dreams in text format using their own devices.

[0517] Input: Text information about your goal or dream

[0518] Output: Input text information

[0519] In terms of the specific operation, the user enters their goal into the application's form, confirms the content, and presses the submit button, at which point the data is transferred to the server.

[0520] Step 2:

[0521] The server analyzes the received text information and uses a generative AI model to generate future diary content.

[0522] Input: Text information about the user's goals

[0523] Output: Generated future diary content

[0524] In this step, the server invokes an AI generative model (e.g., GPT-3) and generates future scenarios for the user as text based on the input text information.

[0525] Step 3:

[0526] The server inserts advertisements for relevant products and services into the generated future diary content.

[0527] Input: Future diary content, advertising database information

[0528] Output: Future diary content with advertisements inserted

[0529] Specifically, the server analyzes the generated content and retrieves and incorporates highly relevant advertisements from a database based on keywords.

[0530] Step 4:

[0531] The server creates prompts in the generated content that allow the user to interact with their future self.

[0532] Input: Generated future diary content

[0533] Output: Future diary content with built-in prompts

[0534] Here, the server uses natural language generation technology to generate prompts that present the user with steps to achieve their goal in an interactive format.

[0535] Step 5:

[0536] The server sends the completed content to the user's device, and the device displays it.

[0537] Input: Future diary content with prompts and advertisements inserted.

[0538] Output: Content displayed to the user

[0539] In this final step, the device renders the received data in a format suitable for the user interface, presenting it in an easy-to-understand manner for the user.

[0540] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotions may be incorporated. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may use the emotion identification model 59 to estimate the user's emotions and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

[0541] This invention constructs a system that generates a future diary based on goals and dreams entered by the user, and provides support to the user in recognizing concrete actions to take toward their dreams. This system incorporates an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and makes adjustments accordingly.

[0542] First, users input their goals and dreams via their device and describe their current situation and expectations. This input information is sent to a server, which then uses this data to run an emotion engine. The emotion engine uses natural language processing technology to analyze the emotions in the user's text and determine whether those emotions are positive or negative.

[0543] Next, the server uses a generative model to generate future diary content based on the sentiment analysis results. This generative model adjusts the tone and expression according to the user's emotions, making the content more empathetic and supportive. For example, if negative emotions are detected, encouraging comments and positive, uplifting phrases will be inserted into the diary content.

[0544] Furthermore, the server inserts advertisements for relevant products and services into the diary in a way that helps the user achieve their goals. The advertisement content is also adjusted to the user's emotional state and is intended to be presented in a way that is easily accepted by the user.

[0545] Finally, the generated diary content is sent to the device, which displays the information in a way that is intuitive for the user to operate. Through dialogue prompts with their future self, the user can discover concrete steps to achieving their goals and experience emotionally supportive content.

[0546] For example, if a user with the goal of "becoming a successful yoga instructor in three years" inputs their current stress and anxiety, the emotion engine will detect this and describe "their future self enjoying growth at their own pace" in their future diary, introducing various approaches to overcome current anxieties. Advertisements such as courses for obtaining certification and relaxation goods are naturally included, providing the user with practical information. In this way, an invention is implemented that empathizes with the user's emotions, concretizes their dreams, and encourages action.

[0547] The following describes the processing flow.

[0548] Step 1:

[0549] Users register their goals or dreams as specific text inputs using a device. The device provides an interface for input and is designed to facilitate the user experience.

[0550] Step 2:

[0551] The terminal sends the entered text data to the server. The data is formatted in an appropriate format (e.g., JSON) and sent as an HTTP request to the server.

[0552] Step 3:

[0553] The server performs analysis on the received data using an emotion engine. This engine utilizes natural language processing techniques to extract emotional tones from the user's text information and classify them as positive, negative, or neutral.

[0554] Step 4:

[0555] The server uses the results of the emotion analysis to call a generative model and create future diary content. This process may be adjusted to include encouragement and hope depending on the user's emotional tone. If positive emotions are detected, a concrete process toward success is described.

[0556] Step 5:

[0557] The generated future diary content will have advertisements for relevant products or services inserted. The server will appropriately select advertisements relevant to the user's goals from the database and seamlessly integrate them into the content. The advertisement content will also be adjusted to take the user's emotional state into consideration.

[0558] Step 6:

[0559] The server generates prompts to simulate a conversation between the user and their future self. This allows the user to reflect on specific action plans and methods for achieving their goals.

[0560] Step 7:

[0561] The server sends the final diary content and dialogue prompts to the terminal. The data is provided in a format that is easy for the user to understand and intuitively accessible.

[0562] Step 8:

[0563] The device displays the data it receives to the user. The user utilizes this system by reading diary entries that visualize the future and by creating action plans based on prompts.

[0564] (Example 2)

[0565] Next, we will describe Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the headset-type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0566] In modern society, many people find it difficult to create clear action plans to achieve their goals and dreams. Furthermore, they often feel a lack of emotional support in the process of achieving their goals. As a result, motivation tends to decline and progress stalls. To solve these problems, a system is needed that proposes concrete action steps toward the user's goals and provides emotional support.

[0567] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0568] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams, means for analyzing emotions based on the input information, and means for using a generative model that generates future diary content according to the results of the emotion analysis. This makes it possible to provide the user with a concrete action plan that is in line with their emotions and to maintain their motivation toward achieving their goals.

[0569] A "user" is an individual or legal entity that uses the system to input information about their goals and dreams.

[0570] "Input information" refers to data about the user's goals, dreams, current situation, and expectations, which they provide through the system.

[0571] "Means" refers to a device or method designed to achieve a specific function.

[0572] "Means of analyzing emotions" refers to a process or technique that analyzes emotions contained in input information using natural language processing technology.

[0573] A "generative model" is an algorithm that uses AI technology to generate specific content based on user input.

[0574] "Future diary content" refers to text or stories that predict future events or situations, created by a generative model based on the user's goals and emotions.

[0575] "Advertisements for goods or services" are promotional content that provides information about products or services relevant to the user's goal achievement.

[0576] A "prompt" is a question or instruction presented to simulate a conversation with your future self.

[0577] "Actions necessary for the process of achieving a goal or dream" refer to the specific steps or actions that a user should take in order to achieve their goal.

[0578] In an embodiment of this invention, a system is constructed in which a user, a terminal, and a server interact with each other.

[0579] The user first uses a terminal to input their goals, dreams, current situation, and expectations. The terminal provides an interface for entering this data using a keyboard or touchscreen. This information is then sent from the terminal to the server.

[0580] The server uses an emotion engine to store and analyze the received information. The emotion engine uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the user's input data and determine their emotional state. For example, it can use Python's Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) library to analyze keywords and context within the text.

[0581] The server then uses a generative AI model, such as an open-source AI text generation model, to generate future diary content that predicts the user's future. The generative AI adjusts the tone and content of the language based on the user's emotional state to produce more empathetic and supportive writing. For example, if a negative emotional state is detected, the diary will include words of encouragement.

[0582] Furthermore, the server incorporates relevant information into the diary to help users achieve their goals, such as advertisements for products and services. These advertisements are tailored to the user's current emotional state and goals.

[0583] The generated future diary content and advertisements are sent from the server to the device. The device displays this content in a user-friendly format. The user can read it and gain inspiration for taking specific actions.

[0584] As a concrete example of how this can be implemented, consider a user aspiring to become a yoga instructor who inputs "I will be a successful yoga instructor in three years." When this user inputs their current anxieties and stresses, the generated diary depicts "their future self enjoying growth at their own pace," and presents advertisements for courses to obtain certification and relaxation goods. As an example of a prompt, the user can simulate a dialogue with their future self through questions such as, "What should I do now to grow as a yoga instructor?"

[0585] This embodiment allows users to be emotionally supported while clarifying the steps to achieving specific goals.

[0586] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0587] Step 1:

[0588] The user provides input information such as goals, dreams, and current status using a device. The device collects this input information and sends it to the server via a network connection. The input information includes text data, which the server receives as is.

[0589] Step 2:

[0590] The server stores the received input information in a database. This stored data is used for sentiment recognition. Next, the server analyzes the text using a natural language processing library (e.g., NLTK) and calculates a sentiment score. This determines whether the text is positive or negative. The output is expressed as a specific numerical score.

[0591] Step 3:

[0592] The server uses the sentiment analysis results to pass data to a generative AI model. The generative AI model generates future diary content based on the information received. If the sentiment score is negative, the generative AI model adjusts to generate encouraging or positive-toned sentences. The output is diary content written in natural language.

[0593] Step 4:

[0594] In addition to the generated diary content, the server selects advertisements for products or services relevant to the user's goal achievement. These advertisements are chosen considering the user's emotional state and are seamlessly integrated into the diary. The advertisement selection process includes data filtering and matching based on the user's goals and current state.

[0595] Step 5:

[0596] The server sends the final generated diary content and advertisements to the device. The content is protected using data encryption technology, and the device decrypts and displays this data. The output is the diary content visually represented on the device.

[0597] Step 6:

[0598] The user reads a diary displayed on the device and interacts with their future self through prompts within it. Through this, the user can explore a path to achieving specific goals and create an action plan. For example, a prompt such as "Please tell me what I should do now to grow as a yoga instructor" is set.

[0599] (Application Example 2)

[0600] Next, we will explain application example 2. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the headset-type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0601] Modern consumers face a vast amount of information when choosing products and services, making it difficult to make appropriate choices based on their own goals and emotions. Furthermore, emotionally stimulating guidance is necessary for users to take concrete action toward their goals.

[0602] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0603] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams, means for using an emotion engine that analyzes the user's emotional state and adjusts future diary content generated based on the analysis results, and means for inserting promotional information for relevant products or services into the generated future diary content. This enables the user to clarify the actions necessary to move towards their goals and to make fulfilling choices while taking their emotions into consideration.

[0604] A "user" is someone who uses the system to input their goals and dreams and receives support to achieve them.

[0605] "Goals or dreams" refer to specific objectives that users want to achieve or the future they hope to see.

[0606] "Input information" refers to text data that users provide to the system as information necessary to achieve their goals and dreams.

[0607] "Future diary content" refers to text or data generated to visualize future life and circumstances based on goals and dreams set by the user.

[0608] A "generative model" is an algorithm or program used to create future diary content based on input information.

[0609] An "emotion engine" is software that analyzes user input to understand their emotions and generates responses and content that correspond to those emotions.

[0610] "Product or service promotional information" refers to information displayed as an advertisement for a product or service that is relevant to and is believed to help users achieve their goals and emotional states.

[0611] A "server" is a computer system that plays a central role in a system, receiving input information from users, performing processing and calculations, and returning the results to the user.

[0612] This invention begins with the user inputting their goals and dreams using a terminal. The input information is then transmitted from the terminal to a server. The server analyzes the input information about the goals and dreams received from the user using an emotion engine to determine the user's current emotional state. This process utilizes natural language processing technology, such as the Google Cloud Natural Language API.

[0613] The server uses a generative AI model to create future diary content based on the results obtained from the emotion engine. This generative AI model utilizes APIs such as OpenAI to generate empathetic and supportive diary entries based on the user's dreams and goals, as well as their current emotional state. For example, if negative emotions are analyzed, the diary entries will be adjusted to include encouraging messages.

[0614] The generated diary content includes promotional information for products and services related to the user's goals. This advertising content is selected to align with the user's emotions and dreams; for example, a user who wants to relax might be offered relaxation products.

[0615] Ultimately, the generated future diary content is sent to the device and presented to the user. The content is displayed in a dialogue format with the user's future self, serving as a guide to help them move towards their goals.

[0616] As a concrete example, if a user sets a goal of "becoming a successful yoga instructor in three years" and inputs their current stress levels, the server will use an emotion engine to detect these anxieties and stresses and generate a future diary that takes those emotions into consideration. This diary will include descriptions of the user enjoying their growth as a yoga instructor and information about available courses.

[0617] Examples of prompts to input into a generative AI model:

[0618] "User's current situation: Wants time to relax. User's emotions: Feeling stressed. Please generate a future diary."

[0619] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0620] Step 1:

[0621] Users input information about their goals or dreams and their current situation through their device. The entered data is in text format and is sent to the server. Examples of input information include "I want to become a yoga instructor in three years" and "I am currently feeling stressed."

[0622] Step 2:

[0623] The server analyzes the user's emotions using an emotion engine based on the received input information. Using natural language processing technologies such as the Google Cloud Natural Language API, it determines whether the user's emotions are positive or negative from the text data. The analysis results are output as emotion data for use in the next step.

[0624] Step 3:

[0625] The server uses the sentiment analysis results and a generative AI model to generate future diary content. Leveraging the OpenAI API, it generates a future vision based on the user's goals, dreams, and emotional state as text. During this generation process, the tone and content of the diary are adjusted based on the sentiment data to ensure it is empathetic and supportive. The generated diary content is then output.

[0626] Step 4:

[0627] The server inserts promotional information for products and services related to the generated future diary content. The selection of ads is tailored to the user's goals and emotions, and is seamlessly integrated into the generated diary. For example, a user seeking relaxation might see ads for yoga classes or relaxation products. The adjusted diary content is then generated as the final output.

[0628] Step 5:

[0629] The device receives the final output of the future diary content and displays it to the user in an intuitive and easy-to-use format. By viewing the diary, the user can enjoy an experience like having a dialogue with their future self and gain concrete guidance for action.

[0630] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the headset terminal 314. In the headset terminal 314, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and display 343 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0631] Data generation model 58 is a type of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). One example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search) <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">Examples of generative AI include the following. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and with inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images. The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference results in data formats such as audio data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[0632] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and specific processing may also be performed by the headset terminal 314.

[0633] [Fourth Embodiment]

[0634] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0635] As shown in Figure 7, the data processing system 410 includes a data processing device 12 and a robot 414. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0636] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 is an example of a "computer" related to the technology of this disclosure. The computer 22 comprises a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication interface 26 is connected to a network 54. An example of the network 54 is a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0637] The robot 414 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a controlled object 443. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and controlled object 443 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0638] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user 20 and receives instructions from the user 20. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user 20, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.

[0639] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor, and captures images of the area around the user 20 (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the width of a typical healthy person's field of vision).

[0640] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.

[0641] The controlled object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the robot 414's emotions can be expressed by controlling these motors. Furthermore, the robot 414's facial expressions can also be expressed by controlling the illumination state of the LEDs in its eyes.

[0642] Figure 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Figure 8, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0643] The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" relating to the technology of this disclosure. The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0644] The storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290.

[0645] In robot 414, the processor 46 performs the reception output processing. The storage 50 stores the reception output program 60. The processor 46 reads the reception output program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read reception output program 60 on the RAM 48. The reception output processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the reception output program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

[0646] Next, the specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0647] The embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail below. This system visualizes the process of achieving goals for the user by generating a future diary based on the goals and dreams entered by the user.

[0648] First, users input their goals and dreams in text format via a device such as a smartphone or computer. The entered information is then transmitted to the server using communication functions.

[0649] Based on the received information, the server utilizes a generative model that processes natural language to generate future diary content depicting the user's goal achievement. This generative model references past success stories and performance data, enabling it to depict the most realistic achievement process for the user's goals.

[0650] Next, the server inserts advertisements for products and services related to goal achievement into the generated future diary content. This involves a process of accurately selecting highly relevant information through integration with an advertising database.

[0651] Furthermore, the server generates prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self. These prompts answer questions the user might have and indicate specific action steps and necessary changes.

[0652] Finally, the server sends the entire set of content to the device, which displays it in a user-friendly format. In this process, the user can gain clear guidance regarding their thoughts and next actions.

[0653] For example, a user with the goal of "making their restaurant successful in five years" can see themselves in their future diary, having "received high ratings as a popular restaurant in the area." The diary describes specific actions taken, such as "first conducting market research and implementing an effective menu PR strategy," and relevant advertisements include information from kitchenware manufacturers. In this way, the system allows users to visualize their actual action plans and obtain necessary product information.

[0654] The following describes the processing flow.

[0655] Step 1:

[0656] The user uses the device to input their goals and dreams as specific text. The device provides an input form through its user interface, allowing the user to enter the information.

[0657] Step 2:

[0658] The terminal sends the entered data to the server. The data is formatted as an HTTP request and sent to the specified endpoint on the server.

[0659] Step 3:

[0660] The server parses the received data and prepares to call the generative model. It checks if the input information is received in the correct format and generates an error message if there are any issues.

[0661] Step 4:

[0662] The server uses a generative model to generate future diary content based on the input information it receives. The generative model uses natural language processing techniques to describe possible scenarios for achieving the goal.

[0663] Step 5:

[0664] The server inserts advertising information related to the future diary entries that have been generated. The advertisements are selected and inserted for products and services that are relevant to the goal. This includes querying the advertising database and selecting the appropriate advertisements.

[0665] Step 6:

[0666] The server generates prompts for the user to interact with their future self. These prompts are created in the form of questions and advice that support the user in achieving their goals, based on their future journal entries.

[0667] Step 7:

[0668] The server sends the final future diary content and dialogue prompts to the terminal. The data is formatted in a way that is easily accessible to the user.

[0669] Step 8:

[0670] The device displays the data it receives to the user. The user can read a future diary and obtain a concrete action plan towards their goals through conversational prompts.

[0671] (Example 1)

[0672] Next, we will describe Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0673] In modern society, people find it difficult to create concrete plans to achieve their goals and dreams. There is a need for systems that help effectively achieve goals by visualizing the path to achieving them and clarifying the necessary actions.

[0674] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0675] This invention includes a server mechanism for receiving data from a user regarding their goals or dreams, a mechanism for utilizing a generative model that generates a future diary using natural language processing based on the data, and a mechanism for incorporating advertising content for products or services related to the generated future diary. This enables the user to visualize their goal achievement process and have an actionable plan of action.

[0676] A "user" refers to an individual who uses the system to provide information about their goals and dreams and to experience the goal-achievement process.

[0677] "Data" refers to specific information about goals or dreams that users input into the system, and is expressed in text format or other similar methods.

[0678] "Natural language processing" refers to the technology that enables computers to understand and process human language, and is particularly used to create generated content based on the user's goals.

[0679] "Future Diary" is hypothetical content created using a generative AI model that depicts the user's goal achievement, and serves as a means for users to visualize the process leading up to that achievement.

[0680] "Generative modeling" refers to a set of algorithms and technologies that use natural language processing based on input data to generate future diaries.

[0681] "Promotional content" refers to information about products or services related to the generated future diary, and is provided as an advertisement to help users achieve their goals.

[0682] An "information processing device" refers to a computer-based hardware or software system that constitutes an entire system, receives and processes input from users, and provides generated content.

[0683] This invention is a system that allows users to visualize their goals and dreams and concretely experience the process of achieving them. The system mainly consists of the user's terminal, a server, and a communication network, and functions through data exchange between these elements.

[0684] Users first use a device such as a smartphone or computer to input their goals and dreams in detail in text format. The entered data is then transmitted to the server via the device's communication function. To ensure the confidentiality and security of the data, it is recommended to use encryption technology for this communication.

[0685] The server receives the user's data and analyzes it using a generative AI model that performs natural language processing. This generative AI model incorporates past success stories and performance data, and automatically generates a future diary that describes realistic steps for the user to achieve their goals. The generated diary includes prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self, showing specific action steps and necessary changes required to achieve their goals.

[0686] Furthermore, the server incorporates advertisements related to the generated diary entries. This is to provide products and services highly relevant to the generated content and the user's goals, and it selects and uses appropriate advertisements from its advertising database. These advertisements also offer suggestions for specific means that users can utilize to achieve their goals.

[0687] The generated future diary content and prompts are sent from the server to the terminal. The terminal displays the received content in a format that is easy for the user to view. The display employs an intuitive user interface and easy-to-read format, designed to help the user easily visualize achieving their goals.

[0688] For example, if a user has the goal of "making their own cafe successful in five years," their future diary will depict them as having "gained recognition as a well-regarded cafe in the community." This diary will include specific actions such as "conducting market research and adopting an effective promotional strategy." Related advertisements will also be presented, such as information on coffee makers and interior design services. This allows the user to visualize their own action plan.

[0689] An example of a prompt might be, "What steps are necessary to make my cafe a thriving business within five years?" This prompt allows the user to consider a concrete action plan to achieve their goal.

[0690] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0691] Step 1:

[0692] Users input their goals and dreams as text using a device such as a smartphone or computer. The input form displays guidelines to help users specify their goals, making it easier for them to enter detailed information. The entered data is temporarily stored on the device and prepared for transmission to the server. The input in this step is text data of the user's goals and dreams, and the output is data converted into a format that can be sent to the server.

[0693] Step 2:

[0694] The terminal transmits the data entered by the user to the server via the internet. Here, an encryption protocol (e.g., HTTPS) is used to protect data privacy and security. The terminal provides feedback to the user to confirm the success of the data transmission. In this step, the input is data prepared on the terminal, and the output is data securely transmitted to the server.

[0695] Step 3:

[0696] The server receives data sent from the terminal and inputs it into a generative AI model for natural language processing. The generative AI model analyzes the user's input data and compares it with pre-trained success story data. Through this process, the server generates a future diary that depicts a realistic process for achieving the user's goals. The input for this step is the user's data, and the output is the generated future diary content.

[0697] Step 4:

[0698] The server inserts advertisements related to the generated future diary entries. This process involves accessing an advertising database to select products and services relevant to the user's goals. The selected advertisements are then embedded in the appropriate locations within the future diary entries. The inputs for this step are the future diary entries and the advertising database, and the output is the diary content with the advertisements inserted.

[0699] Step 5:

[0700] The server generates prompts that allow the user to simulate a conversation with their future self. These prompts suggest answers to questions the user might have and present concrete action steps. For example, a prompt might be generated asking, "What steps are necessary to make my cafe a thriving business within five years?" The input is future diary data, and the output is the generated prompt text.

[0701] Step 6:

[0702] The server sends the completed future diary content and prompts to the terminal. The user's terminal displays the received content in an appropriate format. In doing so, the terminal provides a user-friendly UI and navigation so that the user can intuitively understand the information. The input for this step is the content received from the server, and the output is the user-facing content displayed on the terminal.

[0703] (Application Example 1)

[0704] Next, we will explain Application Example 1. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0705] In modern society, individuals set a wide range of goals and dreams, and are particularly required to create clear plans for purchasing or experiencing things. However, visualizing the specific steps to achieve these goals and accurately obtaining the necessary information and products is not easy. Traditional systems have the problem that the process for achieving goals is not clearly shown, and users do not receive sufficient information on the actions and products necessary to achieve their goals.

[0706] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0707] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams; means for using a generative model that generates future diary content based on the input information; means for inserting advertisements for relevant products or services into the generated future diary content; and means for setting goals related to products or experiences that the user intends to purchase, and visualizing and presenting the process of achieving those goals. This enables the user to concretely visualize the process of achieving their goals or dreams, obtain necessary product information, and proceed with clear guidelines.

[0708] A "goal or dream" refers to a specific matter or objective that a user hopes to achieve in the future, and the result they wish to attain.

[0709] "Input information" refers to text data about the goals and dreams that users provide to the system.

[0710] A "generative model" is an algorithm or program that uses natural language processing technology to create future diary content based on goals set by the user.

[0711] "Future diary content" refers to text content that specifically describes a future scenario in which the user's goals have been achieved.

[0712] "Advertisements" are pieces of information about products or services related to the goals the user is trying to achieve, which are inserted into future diary content.

[0713] "Visualization" means presenting the process and steps for achieving a goal in a way that allows the user to visualize them concretely and clearly.

[0714] "Products or experiences that a user intends to purchase" refers to specific goods or services that the user plans to acquire or experience in the future.

[0715] To implement this invention, a series of programs utilizing a user terminal and a server are required. In this system, the user first inputs information about their goals and dreams using a terminal such as a smartphone. The input information is transmitted to the server via the internet. Based on this information, the server uses a generative AI model (e.g., GPT-3) to create future diary content.

[0716] The generated future diary content includes advertisements for products and services related to the user's set goals. This involves a process of selecting the most suitable advertisements through integration with an advertising database. Furthermore, the server generates prompts that allow the user to interact with their future self, presenting specific action steps and necessary preparations. This generated content is sent to the user's device and displayed in an easy-to-read format.

[0717] As an example, consider a user who has set the goal of "planning a trip to Europe by next year." In this case, the server generates a future diary that allows the user to interact with their future self, outlining specific steps for preparing for the trip. The server then provides the user with the necessary information by inserting advertisements for relevant travel agencies and travel packages into the diary. An example of a prompt would be: "User's travel goal: A trip to Europe. Describe specific steps for the trip and incorporate relevant travel package advertisements."

[0718] Thus, in this embodiment of the present invention, users can concretely visualize the process of achieving their goals and receive necessary information and product suggestions.

[0719] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0720] Step 1:

[0721] Users enter their goals or dreams in text format using their own devices.

[0722] Input: Text information about your goal or dream

[0723] Output: Input text information

[0724] In terms of the specific operation, the user enters their goal into the application's form, confirms the content, and presses the submit button, at which point the data is transferred to the server.

[0725] Step 2:

[0726] The server analyzes the received text information and uses a generative AI model to generate future diary content.

[0727] Input: Text information about the user's goals

[0728] Output: Generated future diary content

[0729] In this step, the server invokes an AI generative model (e.g., GPT-3) and generates future scenarios for the user as text based on the input text information.

[0730] Step 3:

[0731] The server inserts advertisements for relevant products and services into the generated future diary content.

[0732] Input: Future diary content, advertising database information

[0733] Output: Future diary content with advertisements inserted

[0734] Specifically, the server analyzes the generated content and retrieves and incorporates highly relevant advertisements from a database based on keywords.

[0735] Step 4:

[0736] The server creates prompts in the generated content that allow the user to interact with their future self.

[0737] Input: Generated future diary content

[0738] Output: Future diary content with built-in prompts

[0739] Here, the server uses natural language generation technology to generate prompts that present the user with steps to achieve their goal in an interactive format.

[0740] Step 5:

[0741] The server sends the completed content to the user's device, and the device displays it.

[0742] Input: Future diary content with prompts and advertisements inserted.

[0743] Output: Content displayed to the user

[0744] In this final step, the device renders the received data in a format suitable for the user interface, presenting it in an easy-to-understand manner for the user.

[0745] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotions may be incorporated. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may use the emotion identification model 59 to estimate the user's emotions and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

[0746] This invention constructs a system that generates a future diary based on goals and dreams entered by the user, and provides support to the user in recognizing concrete actions to take toward their dreams. This system incorporates an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and makes adjustments accordingly.

[0747] First, users input their goals and dreams via their device and describe their current situation and expectations. This input information is sent to a server, which then uses this data to run an emotion engine. The emotion engine uses natural language processing technology to analyze the emotions in the user's text and determine whether those emotions are positive or negative.

[0748] Next, the server uses a generative model to generate future diary content based on the sentiment analysis results. This generative model adjusts the tone and expression according to the user's emotions, making the content more empathetic and supportive. For example, if negative emotions are detected, encouraging comments and positive, uplifting phrases will be inserted into the diary content.

[0749] Furthermore, the server inserts advertisements for relevant products and services into the diary in a way that helps the user achieve their goals. The advertisement content is also adjusted to the user's emotional state and is intended to be presented in a way that is easily accepted by the user.

[0750] Finally, the generated diary content is sent to the device, which displays the information in a way that is intuitive for the user to operate. Through dialogue prompts with their future self, the user can discover concrete steps to achieving their goals and experience emotionally supportive content.

[0751] For example, if a user with the goal of "becoming a successful yoga instructor in three years" inputs their current stress and anxiety, the emotion engine will detect this and describe "their future self enjoying growth at their own pace" in their future diary, introducing various approaches to overcome current anxieties. Advertisements such as courses for obtaining certification and relaxation goods are naturally included, providing the user with practical information. In this way, an invention is implemented that empathizes with the user's emotions, concretizes their dreams, and encourages action.

[0752] The following describes the processing flow.

[0753] Step 1:

[0754] Users register their goals or dreams as specific text inputs using a device. The device provides an interface for input and is designed to facilitate the user experience.

[0755] Step 2:

[0756] The terminal sends the entered text data to the server. The data is formatted in an appropriate format (e.g., JSON) and sent as an HTTP request to the server.

[0757] Step 3:

[0758] The server performs analysis on the received data using an emotion engine. This engine utilizes natural language processing techniques to extract emotional tones from the user's text information and classify them as positive, negative, or neutral.

[0759] Step 4:

[0760] The server uses the results of the emotion analysis to call a generative model and create future diary content. This process may be adjusted to include encouragement and hope depending on the user's emotional tone. If positive emotions are detected, a concrete process toward success is described.

[0761] Step 5:

[0762] The generated future diary content will have advertisements for relevant products or services inserted. The server will appropriately select advertisements relevant to the user's goals from the database and seamlessly integrate them into the content. The advertisement content will also be adjusted to take the user's emotional state into consideration.

[0763] Step 6:

[0764] The server generates prompts to simulate a conversation between the user and their future self. This allows the user to reflect on specific action plans and methods for achieving their goals.

[0765] Step 7:

[0766] The server sends the final diary content and dialogue prompts to the terminal. The data is provided in a format that is easy for the user to understand and intuitively accessible.

[0767] Step 8:

[0768] The device displays the data it receives to the user. The user utilizes this system by reading diary entries that visualize the future and by creating action plans based on prompts.

[0769] (Example 2)

[0770] Next, we will describe Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0771] In modern society, many people find it difficult to create clear action plans to achieve their goals and dreams. Furthermore, they often feel a lack of emotional support in the process of achieving their goals. As a result, motivation tends to decline and progress stalls. To solve these problems, a system is needed that proposes concrete action steps toward the user's goals and provides emotional support.

[0772] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0773] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams, means for analyzing emotions based on the input information, and means for using a generative model that generates future diary content according to the results of the emotion analysis. This makes it possible to provide the user with a concrete action plan that is in line with their emotions and to maintain their motivation toward achieving their goals.

[0774] A "user" is an individual or legal entity that uses the system to input information about their goals and dreams.

[0775] "Input information" refers to data about the user's goals, dreams, current situation, and expectations, which they provide through the system.

[0776] "Means" refers to a device or method designed to achieve a specific function.

[0777] "Means of analyzing emotions" refers to a process or technique that analyzes emotions contained in input information using natural language processing technology.

[0778] A "generative model" is an algorithm that uses AI technology to generate specific content based on user input.

[0779] "Future diary content" refers to text or stories that predict future events or situations, created by a generative model based on the user's goals and emotions.

[0780] "Advertisements for goods or services" are promotional content that provides information about products or services relevant to the user's goal achievement.

[0781] A "prompt" is a question or instruction presented to simulate a conversation with your future self.

[0782] "Actions necessary for the process of achieving a goal or dream" refer to the specific steps or actions that a user should take in order to achieve their goal.

[0783] In an embodiment of this invention, a system is constructed in which a user, a terminal, and a server interact with each other.

[0784] The user first uses a terminal to input their goals, dreams, current situation, and expectations. The terminal provides an interface for entering this data using a keyboard or touchscreen. This information is then sent from the terminal to the server.

[0785] The server uses an emotion engine to store and analyze the received information. The emotion engine uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the user's input data and determine their emotional state. For example, it can use Python's Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) library to analyze keywords and context within the text.

[0786] The server then uses a generative AI model, such as an open-source AI text generation model, to generate future diary content that predicts the user's future. The generative AI adjusts the tone and content of the language based on the user's emotional state to produce more empathetic and supportive writing. For example, if a negative emotional state is detected, the diary will include words of encouragement.

[0787] Furthermore, the server incorporates relevant information into the diary to help users achieve their goals, such as advertisements for products and services. These advertisements are tailored to the user's current emotional state and goals.

[0788] The generated future diary content and advertisements are sent from the server to the device. The device displays this content in a user-friendly format. The user can read it and gain inspiration for taking specific actions.

[0789] As a concrete example of how this can be implemented, consider a user aspiring to become a yoga instructor who inputs "I will be a successful yoga instructor in three years." When this user inputs their current anxieties and stresses, the generated diary depicts "their future self enjoying growth at their own pace," and presents advertisements for courses to obtain certification and relaxation goods. As an example of a prompt, the user can simulate a dialogue with their future self through questions such as, "What should I do now to grow as a yoga instructor?"

[0790] This embodiment allows users to be emotionally supported while clarifying the steps to achieving specific goals.

[0791] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0792] Step 1:

[0793] The user provides input information such as goals, dreams, and current status using a device. The device collects this input information and sends it to the server via a network connection. The input information includes text data, which the server receives as is.

[0794] Step 2:

[0795] The server stores the received input information in a database. This stored data is used for sentiment recognition. Next, the server analyzes the text using a natural language processing library (e.g., NLTK) and calculates a sentiment score. This determines whether the text is positive or negative. The output is expressed as a specific numerical score.

[0796] Step 3:

[0797] The server uses the sentiment analysis results to pass data to a generative AI model. The generative AI model generates future diary content based on the information received. If the sentiment score is negative, the generative AI model adjusts to generate encouraging or positive-toned sentences. The output is diary content written in natural language.

[0798] Step 4:

[0799] In addition to the generated diary content, the server selects advertisements for products or services relevant to the user's goal achievement. These advertisements are chosen considering the user's emotional state and are seamlessly integrated into the diary. The advertisement selection process includes data filtering and matching based on the user's goals and current state.

[0800] Step 5:

[0801] The server sends the final generated diary content and advertisements to the device. The content is protected using data encryption technology, and the device decrypts and displays this data. The output is the diary content visually represented on the device.

[0802] Step 6:

[0803] The user reads a diary displayed on the device and interacts with their future self through prompts within it. Through this, the user can explore a path to achieving specific goals and create an action plan. For example, a prompt such as "Please tell me what I should do now to grow as a yoga instructor" is set.

[0804] (Application Example 2)

[0805] Next, we will explain application example 2. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0806] Modern consumers face a vast amount of information when choosing products and services, making it difficult to make appropriate choices based on their own goals and emotions. Furthermore, emotionally stimulating guidance is necessary for users to take concrete action toward their goals.

[0807] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0808] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving input information from the user regarding goals or dreams, means for using an emotion engine that analyzes the user's emotional state and adjusts future diary content generated based on the analysis results, and means for inserting promotional information for relevant products or services into the generated future diary content. This enables the user to clarify the actions necessary to move towards their goals and to make fulfilling choices while taking their emotions into consideration.

[0809] A "user" is someone who uses the system to input their goals and dreams and receives support to achieve them.

[0810] "Goals or dreams" refer to specific objectives that users want to achieve or the future they hope to see.

[0811] "Input information" refers to text data that users provide to the system as information necessary to achieve their goals and dreams.

[0812] "Future diary content" refers to text or data generated to visualize future life and circumstances based on goals and dreams set by the user.

[0813] A "generative model" is an algorithm or program used to create future diary content based on input information.

[0814] An "emotion engine" is software that analyzes user input to understand their emotions and generates responses and content that correspond to those emotions.

[0815] "Product or service promotional information" refers to information displayed as an advertisement for a product or service that is relevant to and is believed to help users achieve their goals and emotional states.

[0816] A "server" is a computer system that plays a central role in a system, receiving input information from users, performing processing and calculations, and returning the results to the user.

[0817] This invention begins with the user inputting their goals and dreams using a terminal. The input information is then transmitted from the terminal to a server. The server analyzes the input information about the goals and dreams received from the user using an emotion engine to determine the user's current emotional state. This process utilizes natural language processing technology, such as the Google Cloud Natural Language API.

[0818] The server uses a generative AI model to create future diary content based on the results obtained from the emotion engine. This generative AI model utilizes APIs such as OpenAI to generate empathetic and supportive diary entries based on the user's dreams and goals, as well as their current emotional state. For example, if negative emotions are analyzed, the diary entries will be adjusted to include encouraging messages.

[0819] The generated diary content includes promotional information for products and services related to the user's goals. This advertising content is selected to align with the user's emotions and dreams; for example, a user who wants to relax might be offered relaxation products.

[0820] Ultimately, the generated future diary content is sent to the device and presented to the user. The content is displayed in a dialogue format with the user's future self, serving as a guide to help them move towards their goals.

[0821] As a concrete example, if a user sets a goal of "becoming a successful yoga instructor in three years" and inputs their current stress levels, the server will use an emotion engine to detect these anxieties and stresses and generate a future diary that takes those emotions into consideration. This diary will include descriptions of the user enjoying their growth as a yoga instructor and information about available courses.

[0822] Examples of prompts to input into a generative AI model:

[0823] "User's current situation: Wants time to relax. User's emotions: Feeling stressed. Please generate a future diary."

[0824] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0825] Step 1:

[0826] Users input information about their goals or dreams and their current situation through their device. The entered data is in text format and is sent to the server. Examples of input information include "I want to become a yoga instructor in three years" and "I am currently feeling stressed."

[0827] Step 2:

[0828] The server analyzes the user's emotions using an emotion engine based on the received input information. Using natural language processing technologies such as the Google Cloud Natural Language API, it determines whether the user's emotions are positive or negative from the text data. The analysis results are output as emotion data for use in the next step.

[0829] Step 3:

[0830] The server uses the sentiment analysis results and a generative AI model to generate future diary content. Leveraging the OpenAI API, it generates a future vision based on the user's goals, dreams, and emotional state as text. During this generation process, the tone and content of the diary are adjusted based on the sentiment data to ensure it is empathetic and supportive. The generated diary content is then output.

[0831] Step 4:

[0832] The server inserts promotional information for products and services related to the generated future diary content. The selection of ads is tailored to the user's goals and emotions, and is seamlessly integrated into the generated diary. For example, a user seeking relaxation might see ads for yoga classes or relaxation products. The adjusted diary content is then generated as the final output.

[0833] Step 5:

[0834] The device receives the final output of the future diary content and displays it to the user in an intuitive and easy-to-use format. By viewing the diary, the user can enjoy an experience like having a dialogue with their future self and gain concrete guidance for action.

[0835] 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 controlled object 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0836] Data generation model 58 is a type of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). One example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search) <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">Examples of generative AI include the following. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and with inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images. The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference results in data formats such as audio data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[0837] 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 this disclosure is not limited thereto, and the specific processing may also be performed by the robot 414.

[0838] Furthermore, the emotion identification model 59, acting 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 a specific mapping, which is an emotion map (see Figure 9). Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may also determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.

[0839] Figure 9 shows an emotion map 400 in which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive the emotions are located. Further out of the concentric circles, emotions representing states and actions arising from mental states are located. Emotion is a concept that includes feelings and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are located. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are located. Above and below the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are located. In addition, the emotion of "pleasure" is located on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "displeasure" is located on the lower side. Thus, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions arise, and emotions that are likely to occur simultaneously are mapped close together.

[0840] These emotions are distributed at the 3 o'clock position on the Emotion Map 400, and usually fluctuate between feelings of security and anxiety. In the right half of the Emotion Map 400, situational awareness takes precedence over internal feelings, resulting in a calm impression.

[0841] The inside of the Emotion Map 400 represents inner thoughts, while the outside represents actions. Therefore, the further you go from the outside of the Emotion Map 400, the more visible (expressed in actions) your emotions become.

[0842] Here, human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. Similarly, in robots, cars, motorcycles, etc., emotions can be created based on various balances, such as posture and battery level. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. The emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on a system for analyzing brain physiological signals of speech emotion recognition and emotion, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "response," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.

[0843] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is the emotion around the middle of the negative "repentance" and "reflection" on the situation side. In other words, it is 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 the emotion around the positive "desire" on the reaction side. In other words, it is when the robot has positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."

[0844] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple training data sets, which are combinations of user input and emotion values ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions located close together have similar values, as shown in the emotion map 900 in Figure 10. Figure 10 shows an example where multiple emotions such as "reassured," "calm," and "confident" have similar emotion values.

[0845] The above description primarily focuses on the functions of the data processing device 12 in relation to this disclosure. However, the system related to this disclosure is not necessarily implemented on a server. The system related to this disclosure may be implemented as a general information processing system. This disclosure may be implemented, for example, as a software program that runs on a personal computer or as an application that runs on a smartphone. The method related to this disclosure may be provided to users in SaaS (Software as a Service) format.

[0846] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by a single computer 22. However, the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and a distributed processing of the specific process may be performed by multiple computers, including computer 22. For example, a data generation model 58 may be provided in an external device of the data processing device 12, and the external device may generate data according to the input data.

[0847] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-temporary storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-temporary storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes specific processing according to the specific processing program 56.

[0848] Alternatively, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.

[0849] Furthermore, it is not necessary to store the entirety 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 the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; it is acceptable to store only a portion of the specific processing program 56.

[0850] The following types of processors can be used as hardware resources to perform specific processing. Examples of processors include a CPU, a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource to perform specific processing by executing software, i.e., a program. Other examples of processors include dedicated electrical circuits, such as FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), PLDs (Programmable Logic Devices), or ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), which have circuit configurations specifically designed to perform specific processing. All of these processors have built-in or connected memory, and all of them perform specific processing by using memory.

[0851] The hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of one of these various processors, or it may consist of 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). Alternatively, the hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of a single processor.

[0852] Examples of configurations using a single processor include, firstly, a configuration in which one or more CPUs and software are combined to form a single processor, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that performs a specific process. Secondly, there is a configuration using a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system, including multiple hardware resources that perform a specific process, on a single IC chip, as exemplified by SoCs (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above types of processors as hardware resources.

[0853] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can more specifically utilize electrical circuits that combine circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. Also, the specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps can be deleted, new steps added, or the processing order rearranged, as long as it does not deviate from the main purpose.
