[0026] Next, the identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described.

[0027] "Example of form 1"

[0028] The present invention is a system using conversational AI. This system reduces the burden on the deceased and heirs by digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks. Specifically, when information related to inheritance is input, the conversational AI analyzes it and automatically generates the necessary procedures and tasks. It also automatically creates the necessary documents and sends them to the relevant institutions.

[0029] "Example of form 2"

[0030] Furthermore, this embodiment of the present invention also provides end-of-life support for social media. Specifically, when a person dies, the system identifies the social media accounts they used and automatically performs appropriate procedures. For example, it deletes social media accounts or notifies people of the death. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and also protects their privacy.

[0031] "Example of form 3"

[0032] Furthermore, this embodiment of the present invention also provides end-of-life support for social media. Specifically, when a person dies, the system identifies the social media accounts they used and automatically performs appropriate procedures. For example, it deletes social media accounts or notifies people of the death. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and also protects their privacy.

[0033] The following describes the processing flow for each example form.

[0034] "Example of form 1"

[0035] Step 1: The conversational AI is activated and collects information about the inheritance from the user. This information includes details about the deceased, the heirs, and the assets.

[0036] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the conversational AI automatically generates the necessary procedures and tasks. This includes drafting a will, creating an inheritance division agreement, and calculating inheritance tax.

[0037] Step 3: The conversational AI automatically creates the necessary documents and sends them to the relevant institutions. This saves time and effort for the deceased and their heirs.

[0038] "Example of form 2"

[0039] Step 1: Upon receiving information that the deceased has passed away, the system identifies the social media accounts that the person used.

[0040] Step 2: Automatically take appropriate action on the identified social media platforms. This includes deleting accounts and notifying them of deaths.

[0041] Step 3: Through these procedures, the burden on the bereaved family is reduced and the privacy of the deceased is protected.

[0042] (Example 1)

[0043] Next, we will describe Example 1 of Form 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."

[0044] The procedures related to property succession are complex and time-consuming, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the successor. Furthermore, difficulties in information sharing among stakeholders and managing the progress of procedures lead to delays and errors. In addition, end-of-life planning support through social networking services is insufficient.

[0045] 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.

[0046] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex procedures and tasks related to property succession through the digitization and integration of an interactive information processing device; means for the information processing device to receive succession-related information and analyze it using natural language processing technology; means for automatically generating necessary procedures and documents based on the analysis results; means for electronically sending the generated documents to relevant organizations; and means for notifying the user of the progress of the procedures. This makes it possible to improve the efficiency and accuracy of property succession procedures, facilitate information sharing among stakeholders, and realize end-of-life support in social network services.

[0047] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that receives input from a user, analyzes it using natural language processing technology, and provides the necessary information.

[0048] "Property succession" refers to the procedure of transferring property and rights from the person who is to be succeeded to the person who will succeed.

[0049] "Digitization and integration" refers to the process of centrally managing procedures and tasks using digital technology to improve efficiency.

[0050] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the transfer of property, such as the person being transferred, the person being transferred, and public institutions.

[0051] "Natural language processing technology" is a technology that enables computers to understand and analyze human language.

[0052] "Automatic document generation" refers to the process where a computer automatically creates the necessary documents based on the analysis results.

[0053] "Social networking services" refer to platforms on the internet for people to share information and interact with each other.

[0054] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist individuals with preparations and procedures they undertake while they are still alive.

[0055] The embodiment of this invention is a system for streamlining property succession procedures and reducing the burden on those involved. This system uses an interactive information processing device to receive input from the user and performs analysis using natural language processing technology.

[0056] The server uses a cloud-based platform, specifically utilizing common cloud services. The server receives information about asset succession submitted by users and securely stores it in a database. The received information is then fed into a generative AI model. This model uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the information and identify necessary procedures and documents.

[0057] Users access the system via a terminal and input information related to asset succession. The terminal can be an internet-connected PC or smartphone. Users can monitor the progress of the procedures provided by the system in real time.

[0058] The server automatically generates the necessary documents based on the analysis results. These documents are generated using common document creation software and output in formats such as PDF. The generated documents are then sent electronically to the relevant organizations. This transmission is done via email or a dedicated online portal.

[0059] For example, if a user enters "My father has passed away, and I want to inherit his estate," the system will automatically generate the information necessary for creating an inheritance division agreement and filing inheritance tax returns.

[0060] Example of a prompt:

[0061] "My father has passed away, and I would like to inherit his estate. Please tell me what procedures and documents are necessary."

[0062] In this way, the system can streamline the property transfer process and reduce the burden on those involved.

[0063] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0064] Step 1:

[0065] Users input information regarding property succession through their device. This information includes the name of the deceased, date of death, type and value of the estate, and information about the successor. The device used is a computer or smartphone with an internet connection. The entered information is transmitted to a server.

[0066] Step 2:

[0067] The server receives information sent by the user and stores it in a database. The received information is then input into a generative AI model. The server uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the information. As a result of the analysis, necessary procedures and documents are identified.

[0068] Step 3:

[0069] The AI ​​model automatically generates necessary procedures and documents based on the analysis results. Specifically, this includes documents such as inheritance division agreements and inheritance tax returns. The generated documents are output in PDF format, among others.

[0070] Step 4:

[0071] The server electronically sends the generated documents to the relevant organizations. This sending is done via email or a dedicated online portal. The recipients are organizations specified by the user or organizations automatically identified by the system.

[0072] Step 5:

[0073] The server notifies the user of the progress of the procedure. Notifications are sent via email or the system's messaging function. Users can check the completion of the procedure and requests for additional information in real time.

[0074] In this way, the system can streamline the property transfer process and reduce the burden on those involved.

[0075] (Application Example 1)

[0076] Next, we will describe Application Example 1 of Form Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server," and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0077] Inheritance procedures involve numerous documents and processes, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing inheritance-related payments is complex, potentially leading to delays and errors. Addressing these challenges and streamlining inheritance procedures to reduce the burden is crucial.

[0078] 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.

[0079] This invention includes a server that provides means for simplifying and visualizing the complex procedures and tasks related to inheritance through the digitalization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for resolving the issues of various stakeholders such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments, and electronic transaction means for managing payments necessary for inheritance procedures and enabling users to easily make payments. This makes it possible to streamline inheritance procedures and reduce the burden on the user.

[0080] An "interactive information processing system" is a system that receives input from a user, analyzes it using natural language processing, and provides appropriate information and procedures.

[0081] "The complicated procedures related to inheritance" refers to the preparation of documents and application procedures required based on inheritance laws and regulations.

[0082] "Digitalization and centralization" refers to the electronic processing and unified management of traditional paper-based procedures and information.

[0083] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex procedures and information visually in an easy-to-understand manner, making them easily comprehensible to users.

[0084] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the inheritance process, such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments.

[0085] "Electronic transaction methods" refer to systems and methods for conducting financial transactions via the internet.

[0086] A "payment plan" outlines a schedule and method for efficiently making the payments required for inheritance procedures.

[0087] "Related institutions" refers to public institutions and financial institutions that accept necessary documents and payments in inheritance procedures.

[0088] The embodiment of the invention is a system aimed at streamlining and reducing the burden of inheritance procedures. This system uses an interactive information processing device to receive inheritance-related information from the user and analyzes it through natural language processing. Based on the analyzed information, it automatically calculates the necessary procedures and payments and proposes a payment plan to the user.

[0089] The server is developed using Python, and the backend is built using the Flask framework. The frontend is developed using React and provides the user interface. The generative AI model used is OpenAI's GPT, which parses user input and calculates the necessary payment. Electronic transactions with relevant institutions are handled using the Stripe API for payment processing.

[0090] As a concrete example, when a user enters "I want to handle the inheritance procedures for my father's estate" into a smartphone app, the server receives this information and analyzes it using OpenAI's GPT model. Based on the analysis results, the server proposes a payment plan to the user, such as "You will need 100,000 yen for real estate registration fees and 200,000 yen for inheritance tax." The user can then confirm these payments within the app and complete the payment simply by pressing a button.

[0091] An example of a prompt for a generating AI model is, "Calculate the payments required for inheritance procedures. Input data: {user's inheritance information}." Using this prompt, the AI ​​can generate an appropriate payment plan based on the user's input information.

[0092] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0093] Step 1:

[0094] The user enters information related to inheritance using their smartphone. The entered information is then sent from the device to the server as data necessary for the inheritance procedure.

[0095] Step 2:

[0096] The server sends a prompt message to OpenAI's GPT, a generative AI model, to analyze the received user inheritance information. The prompt message is "Calculate the payments required for inheritance procedures. Input data: {user's inheritance information}". The server uses this prompt message to request data analysis from the AI ​​model.

[0097] Step 3:

[0098] The generating AI model calculates the necessary payment items and amounts based on the received prompt and the user's inheritance information. The AI ​​model considers inheritance-related laws and regulations to generate an appropriate payment plan. The generated payment plan is returned to the server.

[0099] Step 4:

[0100] The server analyzes the payment plan received from the AI ​​model and formats the data for presentation to the user. This formatted data includes payment items and amounts in a user-friendly format.

[0101] Step 5:

[0102] The terminal displays the payment plan received from the server to the user. The user reviews the presented payment plan and takes action to make the payment as needed.

[0103] Step 6:

[0104] When a user initiates a payment, the device sends payment information to the server. The server uses the Stripe API to execute the electronic transaction with the relevant institutions. Once the payment is complete, the server notifies the device of the result.

[0105] Step 7:

[0106] The terminal displays a payment completion notification received from the server to the user. This allows the user to confirm that the payment required for the inheritance procedure has been completed.

[0107] (Example 2)

[0108] Next, we will describe Example 2 of Form 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".

[0109] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, the procedures for managing and deleting social media accounts are often cumbersome, causing considerable emotional stress for surviving family members. Simplifying these procedures and reducing the burden is therefore crucial.

[0110] 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.

[0111] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and integration of an interactive information processing device; means for collecting information on the deceased and for the information processing device to acquire the information using communication means; means for the information processing device to process the information using communication means and identify the information; means for automating the information processing using communication means based on the information identified by the information processing device; and means for the information processing device to notify the results of the information processing. This makes it possible to simplify and reduce the burden of inheritance-related procedures and to automate the management and deletion of SNS accounts.

[0112] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0113] The term "decedent" refers to a person who has passed away and whose property and rights are to be inherited.

[0114] An "heir" refers to a person who has the right to inherit the property and rights of the deceased.

[0115] "Public institutions" refer to public organizations such as the government and local authorities, and may be involved in inheritance-related procedures.

[0116] An "information processing device" is a device used for collecting, analyzing, and processing data, and is used for inheritance-related procedures and managing social media accounts.

[0117] "Communication means" refers to the means by which an information processing device exchanges information with external databases or services, and includes internet connectivity and APIs.

[0118] "Information processing" refers to a series of operations that involve analyzing collected data and performing necessary procedures.

[0119] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand manner, thereby aiding user comprehension.

[0120] "Automation" refers to the mechanical execution of procedures that would otherwise need to be done manually, with the aim of improving efficiency and reducing workload.

[0121] "Notification" refers to the act of informing a user of the results of information processing or the completion of a procedure, and is carried out via email or in-system messages.

[0122] One embodiment of this invention is a system for streamlining inheritance-related procedures and managing social media accounts. This system operates through the coordinated efforts of a server, a terminal, and a user.

[0123] The server first collects information about the deceased. Specifically, it retrieves information such as the deceased's name, email address, and phone number from the database. This information is extracted from the database using SQL queries. Next, the server uses the APIs of various social networking platforms to identify accounts based on the collected information. For example, it uses Facebook's Graph API or Twitter's API to search for the relevant account.

[0124] The terminal executes procedures on identified social networking service (SNS) accounts based on instructions from the server. Specifically, it sends requests to delete accounts or sends death notifications. These procedures are carried out through the APIs of each SNS. For example, for Facebook accounts, the Graph API is used to send deletion requests.

[0125] The user inputs prompts into the generating AI model, which then generates examples of specific procedures related to end-of-life support via social media. For example, by inputting the prompt, "Please tell me how to delete the deceased's Facebook account," the AI ​​model will generate specific procedural steps.

[0126] This system will simplify and reduce the burden of inheritance-related procedures, and automate the management and deletion of social media accounts.

[0127] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0128] Step 1:

[0129] The server collects information about the deceased. As input, it retrieves information such as the deceased's name, email address, and phone number from a database. Specifically, it extracts the necessary information from the database using SQL queries. The output provides basic information about the deceased. This information is used to identify subsequent social media accounts.

[0130] Step 2:

[0131] The server identifies the social media accounts. The information of the deceased obtained in Step 1 is used as input. The server uses the APIs of each social media platform to identify the accounts. Specifically, it uses Facebook's Graph API and Twitter's API to search for the relevant accounts. The output is the social media account information of the deceased.

[0132] Step 3:

[0133] The server automates the process. It uses the SNS account information identified in step 2 as input. The server automatically executes pre-configured procedures for the identified account. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests and death notifications. These procedures are performed through the API of each SNS. The output provides the completion status of the procedures.

[0134] Step 4:

[0135] The server notifies the user of the result. The completion status of the procedure obtained in step 3 is used as input. The server notifies the user that the procedure is complete. Specifically, this is done by sending an email using the SMTP protocol or by utilizing the system's notification function. A notification of procedure completion is sent to the user as output.

[0136] (Application Example 2)

[0137] Next, we will describe application example 2 of form example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 as a "terminal".

[0138] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, in the management of information processing device accounts, if proper procedures are not followed after a user's death, there is a risk of privacy violations and misuse. Solving these challenges, reducing the burden on users, and protecting privacy are essential.

[0139] 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.

[0140] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device; means for securely storing user-registered account information of the information processing device and automatically executing pre-configured procedures when the user's death is confirmed; and means for deleting accounts and sending notifications using the communication means of the information processing device and the communication protocol of each information processing device. This enables more efficient inheritance-related procedures and proper management of the user's information processing device.

[0141] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0142] The term "decedent" refers to an individual who has died leaving behind property.

[0143] An "heir" refers to an individual or organization that has the right to inherit the property of the deceased.

[0144] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a specific region.

[0145] An "interested party" refers to an individual or group that has an interest in a particular event or project.

[0146] An "information processing device" is an electronic device used to process data and perform specific functions.

[0147] "Communication methods" refer to the technologies and protocols used to send and receive information.

[0148] A "communication protocol" is a protocol that defines the rules and procedures for exchanging data between information processing devices.

[0149] "Account deletion" is the operation that erases user information registered on the information processing device.

[0150] "Notification" refers to a message or alert used to inform others of specific information.

[0151] The system for realizing this invention includes a server, a user terminal, and communication means for an information processing device. The server receives inheritance-related information provided by the user and digitizes and aggregates this information through an interactive information processing device. This simplifies and visualizes inheritance procedures.

[0152] The server securely stores the account information of the information processing device registered by the user. If the user's death is confirmed, the server automatically executes pre-configured procedures. This process includes deleting the account and sending notifications using the communication means of the information processing device, in accordance with the communication protocols of each device.

[0153] Specifically, the server receives input from user devices such as smartphones and computers and stores account information in a database (e.g., Firebase). When a user's death is confirmed, the server uses social media APIs (e.g., Facebook API, Twitter API) to send an account deletion request and notifies the user if necessary.

[0154] In implementing this system, it is also possible to use a generative AI model to analyze user input and suggest appropriate procedures. For example, if a user has registered Facebook and Twitter accounts, the server will use the Facebook API to send an account deletion request and the Twitter API to send a death notification to followers.

[0155] An example of a prompt message is: "Create a program that uses the APIs of each social networking service to delete accounts and send notifications when a user's death is confirmed, based on the social networking service account information registered by the user."

[0156] The flow of the specific processing in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0157] Step 1:

[0158] The user uses a device to enter inheritance-related information and social media account information. The device sends this information to the server. The entered data includes the user's personal information, social media account login information, and documents required for inheritance procedures. The server stores the received data in a database.

[0159] Step 2:

[0160] The server uses a generative AI model to analyze inheritance-related information provided by the user. The user's inheritance information is used as input data. Based on the analysis results, the server generates suggestions for simplifying and visualizing inheritance procedures. The output is a set of procedural suggestions for the user.

[0161] Step 3:

[0162] If a user's death is confirmed, the server automatically executes pre-configured procedures. The user's death confirmation information is used as input. The server uses the SNS API to send account deletion requests to each SNS and sends notifications as needed. The output includes confirmation of account deletion and notification sending.

[0163] Step 4:

[0164] The server uses the communication means of the information processing device to delete accounts and send notifications in accordance with the communication protocol of each information processing device. Access information from the SNS API is used as input. The server accesses SNS using the API key and sends an account deletion request. The output is a deletion completion notification from SNS.

[0165] Step 5:

[0166] The server notifies the user of the progress of the inheritance procedures and SNS account management. The results of each processing step are used as input. The server sends a notification to the user's terminal reporting the completion status of the procedures. The output is a notification sent to the user.

[0167] (Example 3)

[0168] Next, we will describe Embodiment 3 of Embodiment Example 3. 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."

[0169] The procedures involved in inheriting property are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the inheritors. Furthermore, managing user accounts on social networking services also poses a considerable emotional burden for surviving family members. There is a need to address these challenges and simplify procedures to reduce the burden on individuals.

[0170] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[0171] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and integrating property succession procedures through an interactive information processing device, means for inputting information of the inheritor, and means for identifying user accounts of social network services via a communication network and automatically executing related procedures. This makes it possible to simplify property succession procedures and reduce the burden of managing user accounts in social network services.

[0172] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through interaction with the user and digitizes and integrates necessary procedures and tasks.

[0173] "Procedures related to property transfer" refers to all legal and administrative procedures required when transferring property from the deceased to the successor.

[0174] "Digitization and integration" refers to the process of unifying traditional paper-based or individual procedures using digital technology, and managing and executing them efficiently.

[0175] The term "inheritor" refers to an individual who is in a position to pass on property or rights to another person.

[0176] A "successor" refers to an individual or organization that is in a position to inherit property or rights from the person being succeeded.

[0177] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a region, and may be involved in procedures related to property inheritance.

[0178] "Interested parties" refer to individuals or organizations that are directly or indirectly affected in the inheritance of property.

[0179] A "communication network" is the infrastructure for sending and receiving information, and includes the internet and dedicated lines.

[0180] "Social networking services" refer to online platforms that allow people to share information and interact via the internet.

[0181] A "user account" refers to the identification information necessary for an individual to use a social networking service.

[0182] "To execute automatically" means that the system completes the procedure independently, without requiring human intervention.

[0183] "Notification" refers to a means of informing relevant parties of specific information, including email and in-app notifications.

[0184] The embodiments for carrying out this invention are as follows:

[0185] The user uses a terminal to enter the inheritor's basic information. This information includes name, date of birth, and types of social networking services used. The terminal then sends this information to the server.

[0186] The server uses the received information about the inherited person to perform a search to identify user accounts on social networking services. The server uses a Python script to access the APIs of each social networking service and search for the relevant accounts. Specifically, it uses the Facebook and Twitter APIs to search for accounts using name and date of birth.

[0187] The server automatically performs the necessary procedures for identified user accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests using the Facebook API and death notifications via the Twitter API. This automatically deletes the accounts and sends notifications.

[0188] The server notifies the user when the procedure is complete. The server informs the user of the completion status via email or in-app notification. This allows the user to confirm that the procedure was completed successfully.

[0189] For example, if a user enters "The name of the person to be inherited is Taro Yamada, the date of birth is January 1, 1980, and the social media platforms used are Facebook and Twitter" on their device, the server will use the Facebook API to search for the account of "Taro Yamada" and send a deletion request. Similarly, it will use the Twitter API to send a death notification.

[0190] An example of a prompt to be input to the generating AI model is, "Generate a program that identifies the inherited user's SNS account and performs deletion or notification procedures." This prompt prompt causes the AI ​​model to generate the necessary program code. The process flow in Example 3 is explained using Figure 15.

[0191] Step 1:

[0192] The user uses a terminal to enter the basic information of the person to be inherited. This information includes name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services used. This information is sent from the terminal to the server. The server stores the received information in a database and prepares it for subsequent processing.

[0193] Step 2:

[0194] The server performs a search to identify user accounts on social networking services based on the stored information of the inherited person. The server uses a Python script to access the API of each social networking service and search for the relevant account. The input is the name and date of birth of the inherited person, and the output is the ID of the identified account and related information.

[0195] Step 3:

[0196] The server automatically performs the necessary procedures for identified user accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests using the Facebook API and death notifications via the Twitter API. The input is the ID of the identified account, and the output is the result of the procedures. The server executes these procedures asynchronously to improve processing efficiency.

[0197] Step 4:

[0198] The server notifies the user when the procedure is complete. The server informs the user of the procedure's completion status via email or in-app notifications. The input is the result of the procedure's execution, and the output is a notification message sent to the user. This allows the user to confirm that the procedure was completed successfully.

[0199] (Application Example 3)

[0200] Next, we will describe application example 3 of form example 3. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 as a "terminal".

[0201] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing accounts for information exchange services requires appropriate handling upon a user's death, and performing this manually places a considerable emotional burden on surviving family members. There is a need to address these challenges, simplify procedures, and protect privacy.

[0202] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[0203] This invention includes a server that provides means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for resolving issues for various stakeholders such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments, and means for managing user-registered account information for information exchange services, and automatically contacting each information exchange platform upon the user's death to delete or commemorate the account. This reduces the burden of inheritance-related procedures and enables appropriate account management in information exchange services.

[0204] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0205] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal and administrative procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's assets and rights to the heirs.

[0206] "Digitization and centralization" refers to the process of streamlining traditional paper-based or individual procedures by using digital technology for unified management.

[0207] "Visualization" refers to making complex information or procedures easier to understand by displaying them visually in an easy-to-understand manner.

[0208] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the inheritance, such as the deceased, the heirs, and local governments.

[0209] An "information exchange service" is an online platform for users to share and interact with each other.

[0210] "Account information" refers to personal information and authentication information registered by users in an information exchange service.

[0211] "Memorialization" refers to changing a user's account to a special state after their death, providing features to commemorate the deceased.

[0212] To implement this invention, it is necessary to construct a system in which a server and a user's terminal work in cooperation. The server uses an interactive information processing device to receive input from the user and handle inheritance-related procedures and account management for information exchange services. Specifically, the server securely stores the user's registered account information for information exchange services and automatically notifies each information exchange platform when the user's death is confirmed. This enables the deletion of accounts and memorialization procedures to be carried out.

[0213] The server uses APIs for information exchange services (such as the Facebook Graph API and the Twitter API) to send requests for managing, deleting, and commemorating account information. The user's device is a smartphone or personal computer, and it provides an interface for users to register their account information while they are still alive.

[0214] For example, if a user has registered both Facebook and Twitter accounts, upon confirmation of the user's death, the server will use the Facebook Graph API to commemorate the account and the Twitter API to delete the account. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and protects their privacy.

[0215] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to automatically generate appropriate procedures based on user input. An example of a prompt message is: "Please provide instructions for developing an application that automatically deletes or commemorates a user's registered information exchange service account when their death is confirmed."

[0216] The flow of the specific processing in Application Example 3 will be explained using Figure 16.

[0217] Step 1:

[0218] Users register their account information for information exchange services using a terminal. As input, users provide account IDs and authentication information for each service. The terminal encrypts this information and sends it to the server. As output, the server securely stores the encrypted account information.

[0219] Step 2:

[0220] The server periodically checks for user survival. It takes data about the user's survival status as input. The server uses a generative AI model to generate prompt messages to determine the user's survival status and compares them with external databases and public records. As output, it updates the user's survival or death status.

[0221] Step 3:

[0222] If a user's death is confirmed, the server uses the APIs of registered information exchange services to send requests for account deletion or memorialization. The server uses the user's death status and account information as input. The server generates and sends requests in a format appropriate for each service's API. The server receives responses from each service as output and confirms the completion of the process.

[0223] Step 4:

[0224] The server notifies the bereaved family of the processing results. As input, the server uses responses and processing status from each service. The server sends emails or messages to the bereaved family to inform them that the account deletion or memorialization is complete. As output, the notification to the bereaved family is complete.

[0225] 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.

[0226] "Example of form 1"

[0227] One embodiment of this system is a conversational AI system incorporating an emotion engine. This system analyzes the user's emotions from their tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice, and responds accordingly. For example, if the system senses that the user is confused, it provides more detailed explanations and guidance. If the system senses that the user is angry, it offers an apology and attempts to resolve the problem.

[0228] "Example of form 2"

[0229] Another embodiment involves a system that uses an emotion engine to adjust suggestions for inheritance-related procedures and tasks. This system recognizes the user's emotions and adjusts the suggested procedures and tasks accordingly. For example, if the system determines that the user is feeling stressed, it will suggest simplifying the procedure or resuming it later. This reduces the user's stress and provides a better experience.

[0230] "Example of form 3"

[0231] Another embodiment involves a system that uses an emotion engine to adjust end-of-life planning support suggestions on social media. This system recognizes the user's emotions and adjusts the end-of-life planning support suggestions accordingly. For example, if the system determines that the user is feeling sad, it will suggest end-of-life planning support on social media at an appropriate time. This provides appropriate end-of-life planning support that takes the user's emotions into consideration.

[0232] The following describes the processing flow for each example form.

[0233] "Example of form 1"

[0234] Step 1: Begin interaction with the user. During this interaction, collect information such as the user's tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[0235] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[0236] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, respond in a way that matches the user's emotions. For example, if you sense that the user is confused, provide a detailed explanation; if you sense that the user is angry, offer an apology.

[0237] "Example of form 2"

[0238] Step 1: Begin a conversation with the user and gather information about inheritance-related procedures and tasks. At this time, also collect information about the user's tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[0239] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[0240] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, adjust the suggested procedures and tasks according to the user's emotions. For example, if it is determined that the user is feeling stressed, simplify the procedure or suggest resuming it later.

[0241] "Example of form 3"

[0242] Step 1: Begin conversations with users and gather information about end-of-life planning support on social media. At this time, also collect information about the users' tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[0243] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[0244] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, adjust the end-of-life support suggestions on social media according to the user's emotions. For example, if it is determined that the user is feeling sadness, suggest end-of-life support on social media at an appropriate time.

[0245] (Example 1)

[0246] Next, we will describe Example 1 of Form 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."

[0247] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and often place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, the emotional stress involved can delay the process. End-of-life planning support through information-sharing services is also a crucial issue. It is necessary to address these challenges and simplify procedures while reducing the burden on heirs.

[0248] 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.

[0249] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for analyzing input information and automatically generating necessary procedures and tasks, and means for analyzing voice and facial expressions and responding according to the user's emotions. This reduces the burden of inheritance procedures, alleviates emotional stress, and enables efficient procedure progress.

[0250] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and supports necessary procedures and tasks.

[0251] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's assets to the heirs.

[0252] "Digitization and centralization" refers to converting traditional paper-based procedures into a digital format and managing them centrally.

[0253] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand manner.

[0254] "Interested parties" refer to all parties involved in the inheritance process, specifically the deceased, the heirs, and public institutions.

[0255] "Information analysis" is the process of analyzing input data to identify necessary procedures and tasks.

[0256] "Emotional analysis" is a technology that analyzes a user's voice and facial expressions to determine their emotional state.

[0257] An "information sharing service" refers to a platform for sharing information with others via the internet.

[0258] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist individuals with preparations and procedures they undertake while they are still alive.

[0259] This invention is an interactive information processing system designed to streamline inheritance-related procedures and reduce the burden on users. The system automates procedures by facilitating information exchange between a server, a terminal, and the user.

[0260] The server uses a cloud-based server equipped with a high-performance processor and sufficient memory. The server analyzes inheritance-related information entered by users using a generative AI model. Specifically, it leverages natural language processing techniques to identify necessary procedures and relevant laws from the input information. A general-purpose natural language processing model is used as the generative AI model.

[0261] The terminal provides an interface for the user to input information. Through the terminal, the user enters information such as the deceased's name, date of death, and information about the heirs. The terminal then sends this information to the server.

[0262] The server generates a list of necessary procedures based on the analysis results and automatically creates the required documents. These documents are stored electronically and sent to the relevant authorities as needed. Furthermore, the server uses speech recognition and facial recognition software to analyze the user's emotions. If the user is confused, the server provides detailed explanations and additional guidance. If the user is angry, the server apologizes and outlines specific steps for resolving the problem.

[0263] For example, if a user enters into the terminal "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process, but I don't know what to do," the server analyzes this information and generates a list of necessary procedures and documents. The server provides the generated information to the user and sends the necessary documents to the relevant organizations.

[0264] Examples of prompt messages include the following:

[0265] "Please tell me what documents are required for inheritance procedures."

[0266] "Please explain the procedure when there are multiple heirs."

[0267] "Please explain in detail how inheritance tax is calculated."

[0268] In this way, the system analyzes user input information and automatically generates necessary procedures and documents, as well as responding in accordance with the user's emotions, thereby reducing the burden of inheritance procedures.

[0269] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 17.

[0270] Step 1:

[0271] The user uses a terminal to input information related to inheritance. Specifically, they input the deceased's name, date of death, and information about the heirs. The terminal sends this information to the server. The entered information is used as data for analysis on the server.

[0272] Step 2:

[0273] The server analyzes the received information using a generative AI model. The generative AI model utilizes natural language processing technology to identify necessary procedures and relevant laws from the input information. Specifically, it analyzes the input text data and extracts the steps required for inheritance procedures. As a result of the analysis, a list of necessary procedures is generated.

[0274] Step 3:

[0275] The server generates a list of necessary procedures based on the analysis results. Examples include preparation of an inheritance division agreement, filing of inheritance tax, and the like. The server presents these procedures to the user. As an output, a list of procedures to be performed by the user is provided.

[0276] Step 4:

[0277] The server automatically prepares necessary documents. Specifically, the server generates documents such as an inheritance division agreement and an inheritance tax return based on templates. The generated documents are stored electronically and sent to relevant authorities as necessary. As an output, the completed documents are generated.

[0278] Step 5:

[0279] The server analyzes the user's tone and expression using an emotion engine. When the user performs voice input, the server analyzes the tone using voice recognition software. The server reads the user's emotion from their facial expression using facial expression recognition software. The user's voice data and video data are used as input, and the user's emotional state is determined as output.

[0280] Step 6:

[0281] The server provides an appropriate response to the user based on the result of the emotion analysis. When it is determined that the user is confused, the server provides a detailed explanation and additional guidance. When it is determined that the user is angry, the server apologizes and presents specific procedures for solving the problem. As an output, an appropriate response to the user is provided.

[0282] (Application Example 1)

[0283] Next, Application Example 1 of Embodiment 1 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 is referred to as a "server", and the smart device 14 is referred to as a "terminal".

[0284] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, they involve emotional stress, highlighting the need for streamlined procedures and emotional support. Additionally, the payment of associated fees is cumbersome, necessitating a unified system to address these issues.

[0285] 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.

[0286] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for analyzing the user's emotions using an emotion analysis device and providing appropriate responses, and means for streamlining fee payments by incorporating an electronic payment function. This enables efficient inheritance procedures, emotional support for users, and simplification of fee payments.

[0287] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0288] The term "decedent" refers to a person who has died leaving behind property.

[0289] An "heir" refers to a person who has the right to inherit the property of the deceased.

[0290] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a region, and in inheritance procedures, it issues necessary documents and provides support for the procedures.

[0291] "Interested parties" refer to individuals or organizations that are directly or indirectly affected in the inheritance process.

[0292] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes a user's emotions based on their tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice, and then responds appropriately.

[0293] "Electronic payment functionality" refers to a feature that enables online monetary transactions and is used to streamline the payment of fees.

[0294] An "information sharing network" is an online platform for users to share information, and in the context of end-of-life planning support, it is used as a place to delete accounts or notify others of death.

[0295] The system for implementing this invention consists of an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, a server equipped with electronic payment functionality, and a terminal used by the user. The server receives inheritance-related information from the user, analyzes that information using the interactive information processing device, and automatically generates the necessary procedures and documents. Furthermore, it analyzes the user's emotions using the emotion analysis device and takes appropriate action. For example, if the user is confused, the server provides detailed guidance, and if the user is angry, it apologizes and works to resolve the problem.

[0296] Furthermore, the server streamlines fee payments through electronic payment functionality. Users can input the necessary information for inheritance procedures via a terminal and proceed with the process following guidance provided by the server. This streamlines inheritance procedures, provides emotional support to users, and simplifies fee payments.

[0297] For example, when a user enters "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process" into the terminal, the server analyzes the information and generates the necessary procedures and documents. Furthermore, an emotion analysis device analyzes the user's emotions and provides appropriate support. An example of a prompt would be, "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process. Please tell me what procedures and documents I need."

[0298] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 18.

[0299] Step 1:

[0300] A user inputs inheritance-related information through a terminal. The input information includes the name of the decedent, the relationship of the inheritor, the type of property, and the like. The terminal transmits this information to a server.

[0301] Step 2:

[0302] The server analyzes the received information with an interactive information processing apparatus. In the analysis process, a generative AI model is used to identify necessary procedures and documents. As an output, a list of procedures and templates for required documents are generated.

[0303] Step 3:

[0304] The server uses a sentiment analysis device to analyze the user's sentiment from the content input by the user. The input includes the user's tone and wording. Based on the analysis result, if the user is confused, detailed guidance is output; if the user is angry, an apology and a proposal for problem solving are output.

[0305] Step 4:

[0306] The server performs a fee payment procedure through an electronic payment function. When the user inputs payment information, the server processes the payment via a payment gateway. As an output, a confirmation of payment completion is notified to the user.

[0307] Step 5:

[0308] The server transmits the generated list of procedures and required documents to the user's terminal. The user can check this information on the terminal and proceed with the procedures according to the instructions. As an output, the progress status of the procedures is displayed to the user.

[0309] (Example 2)

[0310] Next, Example 2 of Embodiment 2 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 is referred to as a "server", and the smart device 14 is referred to as a "terminal".

[0311] The procedures involved in asset transfer are complex, placing a significant burden on both the transferor and the transferee. Furthermore, account management on social networking services is cumbersome, and privacy protection is sometimes inadequate. Additionally, there is a lack of measures to alleviate the stress users experience during the process. Addressing these challenges is essential.

[0312] 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.

[0313] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and integrating asset succession-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for recognizing the user's emotions using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggested procedures and tasks accordingly, and means for providing end-of-life support through social network services using an information and communication device. This makes it possible to simplify procedures and reduce the burden of asset succession, protect privacy, and reduce user stress.

[0314] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates procedures and tasks related to asset succession.

[0315] "Asset succession" refers to the entire process of transferring property and rights from the person being succeeded to the person succeeding.

[0316] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes the user's input information and recognizes their emotional state.

[0317] An "information and communication device" is a device used to send and receive data via a network and to perform operations related to social network services.

[0318] "Social networking services" refer to platforms on the internet for people to interact and share information.

[0319] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist users in making preparations for what happens after their death, and this particularly includes managing and deleting digital assets.

[0320] One embodiment of this invention is a system for efficiently carrying out procedures and tasks related to asset succession. This system consists of an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, and an information communication device.

[0321] The server prompts the user to input information about the successor through an interactive information processing device. This information includes the successor's name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services they use. Based on this information, the server identifies relevant account information from the database. A general database management system can be used for database management.

[0322] The terminal uses an emotion analysis device to analyze the user's input text. The emotion analysis utilizes a natural language processing library to determine whether the user is experiencing stress. This allows for the suggestion of procedures tailored to the user's emotional state.

[0323] Information and communication devices utilize the APIs of specific social networking services to delete or notify users of the death of their accounts. For example, a request to delete an account can be sent using the API of a particular service.

[0324] For example, if a user enters "I want to delete my father's account," the server retrieves the father's account information from the database and sends a deletion request via the information and communication device. The terminal analyzes the user's emotions and, if it determines that the user is feeling stressed, makes a suggestion such as "Would you like to simplify the process?"

[0325] An example of a prompt to input into the generating AI model is: "Generate a system to streamline asset succession procedures. Include a function that uses sentiment analysis to adjust the suggested procedures."

[0326] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 19.

[0327] Step 1:

[0328] The user enters information about the person to be succeeded. Specifically, they enter the person's name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services they use. This information serves as basic data for the server to identify the relevant account information from the database. The entered information is used as parameters to send queries to the database.

[0329] Step 2:

[0330] The server uses the information received from the user to search the database for the account information of the successor's social networking services. Using the database management system, it executes an SQL query to retrieve the relevant account information. The output provides the identified account information. This information is used in the next step.

[0331] Step 3:

[0332] The server uses the identified account information to access the APIs of various social networking services. Specifically, it sends requests for account deletion and death notifications. For example, it uses the API of a particular service to send a deletion request and receives a success or failure status. The output includes the response status from each service.

[0333] Step 4:

[0334] The terminal uses an emotion analysis device to analyze the user's input text. It uses a natural language processing library to determine the user's emotional state. It receives user text data as input and outputs an emotional state (e.g., whether the user is feeling stressed). This result is used in the next step.

[0335] Step 5:

[0336] The device makes procedural suggestions to the user based on the results of sentiment analysis. Specifically, if it determines that the user is experiencing stress, it will display a suggestion such as, "Would you like to simplify the procedure?". It receives the results of sentiment analysis as input and generates a suggestion message for the user as output.

[0337] (Application Example 2)

[0338] Next, we will describe application example 2 of form example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 as a "terminal".

[0339] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing accounts on social networking services and providing end-of-life planning support are also important issues. Additionally, there is a need to propose appropriate procedures tailored to the emotional state of the user. It is essential to address these challenges, reduce the burden on users, and protect their privacy.

[0340] 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.

[0341] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for adjusting inheritance procedure suggestions according to the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device, and means for managing accounts for social network services via an information and communication network, and for automatically deleting accounts and sending death notifications upon the user's death. This makes it possible to simplify inheritance-related procedures, reduce the burden on users, and protect their privacy.

[0342] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0343] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes a user's emotional state and, based on the results, proposes appropriate inheritance procedures.

[0344] An "information and communication network" is a network for sending and receiving data, and it enables account management for social network services.

[0345] A "social networking service" is a platform for users to interact with others online, and it requires account management and end-of-life planning support.

[0346] "Account deletion" is the procedure for erasing a user's account on social networking services upon their death.

[0347] A "death notification" is the procedure for informing relevant parties of a user's death via social networking services.

[0348] A system for carrying out this invention comprises a server, user terminals, and an information and communication network. The server includes an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, and a function for managing accounts for social network services via the information and communication network.

[0349] The server processes inheritance-related information received from user terminals, digitizing and centralizing it. This allows users to simplify and visualize inheritance procedures. The emotion analysis device analyzes the user's emotional state and, based on the results, suggests appropriate inheritance procedures. For example, if the user is experiencing stress, it can suggest simplifying the procedures.

[0350] Furthermore, the server manages accounts for social networking services via the information and communication network, and automatically deletes accounts and sends death notifications upon a user's death. This protects user privacy and reduces the burden on surviving family members.

[0351] For example, if a user registers both Facebook and Twitter accounts, the server uses the Facebook Graph API to delete the accounts and the Twitter API to send death notifications to followers. For sentiment analysis, the Google® Cloud Natural Language API is used to analyze the user's emotions and provide appropriate suggestions.

[0352] By using a generative AI model, it is possible to generate prompt messages that correspond to the user's emotional state. An example of a prompt message is, "Analyze the user's emotional state and, if they are feeling stressed, suggest ways to simplify the procedure."

[0353] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 20.

[0354] Step 1:

[0355] The user terminal transmits inheritance-related information and social networking service account information to the server. The input is information registered by the user, and the output is data transmission to the server. The user terminal converts the input information into an appropriate format and sends it to the server.

[0356] Step 2:

[0357] The server processes received inheritance-related information using an interactive information processing device, digitizing and aggregating it. Input is inheritance information sent from user terminals, and output is digitized inheritance procedure information. The server stores the information in a database and, as needed, visualizes the progress of the procedures.

[0358] Step 3:

[0359] The server analyzes the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device. The input is the user's inheritance-related behavioral data, and the output is the analyzed emotional state. The server uses the Google Cloud Natural Language API to perform emotion analysis and evaluate the user's stress level.

[0360] Step 4:

[0361] The server uses a generative AI model to create inheritance procedure proposals based on the analyzed emotional state. The input is the result of the emotional analysis, and the output is the proposal presented to the user. The server inputs prompt sentences into the generative AI model and performs the operation of generating appropriate proposals.

[0362] Step 5:

[0363] The server manages accounts for social networking services via the information and communication network, and automatically deletes accounts and sends death notifications upon a user's death. The input is the user's death information, and the output is the result of the account deletion or notification. The server uses the Facebook Graph API and Twitter API to perform account operations.

[0364] (Example 3)

[0365] Next, we will describe Embodiment 3 of Embodiment Example 3. 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."

[0366] The procedures for inheriting assets are complex and place a significant burden on those involved. Furthermore, account management for information exchange devices is often inadequate after the death of the inheritor, highlighting the need for privacy protection and reduced burden on surviving family members. Additionally, there is a lack of appropriate support that considers the feelings of users, necessitating flexible responses that are sensitive to their emotions.

[0367] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[0368] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex procedures and tasks related to property inheritance through the informatization and integration of information via an interactive information processing device; means for recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly; and means for identifying the account of the information exchange device based on the inheritor's information using the information processing device and automatically performing appropriate procedures. This enables simplification and efficiency of property inheritance procedures, appropriate management of the information exchange device, and flexible support tailored to the user's emotions.

[0369] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user, and simplifies and visualizes procedures and tasks related to property inheritance.

[0370] "Property transfer" refers to the entire process of transferring property and rights from the deceased to the successor.

[0371] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that recognizes the emotional state of a user and makes appropriate suggestions based on that information.

[0372] An "information exchange device" is a device used by users to send and receive information, and generally includes accounts for social media and email.

[0373] A "generative information processing model" refers to algorithms and programs that generate suggestions tailored to the user's emotions and circumstances.

[0374] "Informatization and integration" refers to processing procedures and tasks as digital data and managing them centrally.

[0375] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand format.

[0376] "Automated means" refers to functions that allow the system to independently execute procedures without requiring manual intervention.

[0377] A description of embodiments for carrying out this invention will be given.

[0378] The server generates a program that digitizes and integrates procedures and tasks related to property inheritance through an interactive information processing device. This program has the function of recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly. It also includes a function that uses the information processing device to identify the account of the information exchange device based on the inheritor's information and automatically perform the appropriate procedures.

[0379] Specifically, the server uses emotion analysis software called "EmotionAPI" to analyze text and voice data entered by the user through the device. This allows the server to understand the user's emotional state in real time and offer end-of-life support suggestions at the appropriate time. Furthermore, the server uses the API of the information exchange device to retrieve the account information of the person to be inherited and automate procedures such as deletion and notification.

[0380] For example, if a user enters "My father has passed away" into their device, the server sends this text to the "EmotionAPI" and determines that the user is feeling sad. The server then identifies the deceased's social media accounts and initiates the deletion process. Finally, the server displays a message to the user such as, "We have assisted with the end-of-life planning of your social media accounts. Is there anything else we can help you with?"

[0381] An example of a prompt message might be, "Generate appropriate SNS end-of-life support suggestions when the user is feeling sad." This allows the generation AI model to generate suggestions that respond to the user's emotions. The specific processing flow in Example 3 will be explained using Figure 21.

[0382] Step 1:

[0383] Users input emotional information through their devices. Specifically, they input data expressing their emotions, such as "My father has passed away," in text or voice. This input data is sent to the server.

[0384] Step 2:

[0385] The server sends the received user input data to the "EmotionAPI" for emotion analysis. Based on the input data, the EmotionAPI analyzes the user's emotional state and outputs emotion labels such as sadness or joy. This output indicates what emotions the user is currently experiencing.

[0386] Step 3:

[0387] Based on the results of the emotion analysis, the server uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate prompt messages. For example, if the user is feeling sad, it might generate a prompt message such as, "Would you like to receive end-of-life planning support via social media?" This prompt message is designed to provide suggestions tailored to the user's emotions.

[0388] Step 4:

[0389] The server identifies the SNS account using the information exchange device's API based on the inheritor's information. Specifically, it uses the inheritor's name and email address to retrieve account information through the SNS's API. The output of this step is the identified account information.

[0390] Step 5:

[0391] The server automatically performs deletion and death notification procedures for identified social media accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests via the social media API and, if necessary, sends death notification messages. The output of this step indicates the completion of account deletion or notification.

[0392] Step 6:

[0393] The server sends the generated prompt to the terminal and displays it to the user. The user can review the suggestion on the terminal and select the next action as needed. The output of this step is a display of the suggestion to the user.

[0394] (Application Example 3)

[0395] Next, we will describe application example 3 of form example 3. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 as a "terminal".

[0396] In modern society, inheritance procedures are extremely complex, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, while managing accounts for information exchange services requires appropriate handling upon a user's death, doing so manually places a heavy emotional burden on surviving family members. Moreover, there is a lack of timely support that takes into account the emotional state of users, highlighting the need to address these challenges.

[0397] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[0398] This invention includes a server that, through an interactive information processing device, simplifies and visualizes complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through informatization and integration; a means for recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly; and a means for managing the user's registered account information for the information exchange service using the information processing device, and for automatically deleting the account and notifying the user of their death upon their passing. This enables the simplification of inheritance-related procedures and provides end-of-life support through the information exchange service at an appropriate time, taking into consideration the user's emotions.

[0399] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0400] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that recognizes a user's emotional state and makes appropriate suggestions based on that information.

[0401] An "information processing device" is a device that manages account information for information exchange services registered by users and automatically deletes accounts or sends death notifications as needed.

[0402] An "information exchange service" is an online platform used by users to exchange information with others.

[0403] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal and administrative procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's property and rights to the heirs.

[0404] "End-of-life support" refers to support activities that involve managing and deleting accounts for information exchange services and notifying others of the death of a user.

[0405] The system for carrying out this invention includes a server, a user terminal, and an emotion analysis device. The server functions as an interactive information processing device, receiving input from the user and digitizing and integrating inheritance-related procedures and tasks. This allows the user to simplify complex procedures and proceed efficiently based on visualized information.

[0406] The emotion analysis device recognizes the user's emotional state in real time and sends that data to a server. Based on this data, the server makes suggestions at the appropriate time according to the user's emotions. For example, if the server determines that the user is feeling sad, it will display a message such as, "This may be a difficult time for you, but we can help you with managing your information exchange service account. Please let us know when you are ready."

[0407] The information processing device manages account information for information exchange services registered by users. Upon a user's death, the server automatically deletes the account and notifies the deceased. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and protects privacy.

[0408] This system is programmed using Python and utilizes the Google Cloud Natural Language API for sentiment analysis. Account management for information exchange services uses the APIs of each service (e.g., Facebook Graph API, Twitter API).

[0409] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to analyze the user's emotional state and propose appropriate end-of-life support. An example of a prompt would be, "Please tell me how to analyze the user's emotional state and propose appropriate end-of-life support."

[0410] The flow of the specific processing in Application Example 3 will be explained using Figure 22.

[0411] Step 1:

[0412] The user inputs inheritance-related procedural information through their device. The device then sends this information to a server. The server stores the received information in a database and performs data processing and integration. This allows the progress of the procedure to be visualized.

[0413] Step 2:

[0414] The emotion analysis device monitors the user's emotional state in real time. It receives the user's voice and text data as input and performs emotion analysis using the Google Cloud Natural Language API. The analysis results are sent to the server, where the user's emotional state is recognized.

[0415] Step 3:

[0416] The server generates appropriate suggestions based on data from the emotion analysis device, tailored to the user's emotions and timing. Using a generative AI model, it creates prompt messages that match the user's emotional state and displays them on the terminal. For example, if the user is feeling sad, the server might generate a message such as, "This may be a difficult time for you, but we can help you with managing your information exchange service account."

[0417] Step 4:

[0418] The user enters instructions into a terminal to manage their account information for the information exchange service. The terminal sends these instructions to the server. The server uses the API of each information exchange service to retrieve the user's account information and automatically deletes accounts or notifies users of their death as needed.

[0419] Step 5:

[0420] The server sends the processing results to the terminal and notifies the user. This allows the user to check the completion status of the procedure and the results of account management.

[0421] (Other examples)

[0422] Next, other embodiments 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".

[0423] The procedures for transferring assets are complex and place a significant burden on both the transferor and the transferee. In particular, the preparation of necessary documents and procedures with relevant institutions are time-consuming and laborious, and it is difficult to track the progress of the procedures. This leads to delays and errors in the procedures, and hinders smooth communication among the parties involved.

[0424] The identification processing performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in other embodiments is realized by the following means.

[0425] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving succession-related information from the predecessor and the successor, means for analyzing the received information using natural language processing technology, and means for inputting prompt sentences into a generation AI model based on the analysis results and automatically generating the necessary procedures and documents. This enables more efficient procedures and accurate document creation related to property succession.

[0426] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that inputs, processes, and outputs information through interaction with the user, and has the function of processing necessary information based on the user's instructions.

[0427] "Property succession-related information" refers to data including information on assets, liabilities, and heirs concerning the deceased and the successor, and is the information necessary for the property succession procedure.

[0428] "Natural language processing technology" refers to the technology used to process human language using computers, and is used for analyzing text data and extracting meaning.

[0429] A "generative AI model" is a model trained using artificial intelligence technology to perform specific tasks and has the ability to generate documents and information based on prompts.

[0430] A "prompt statement" is an input statement used to instruct a generative AI model on a specific task, and it contains instructions for the model to generate appropriate output.

[0431] "Related institutions" refer to institutions that receive necessary documents and information in the property succession procedure, and include public institutions such as legal affairs bureaus and tax offices.

[0432] "Push notifications" are a technology that sends information from a server to a user's device in real time and are used to immediately inform the user of the progress of a procedure.

[0433] The following describes "modes for carrying out the invention."

[0434] ---

[0435] This invention is a system for streamlining procedures related to property succession, and is implemented using an interactive information processing device. The system operates through the coordinated operation of a server, terminals, and users.

[0436] The server receives succession-related information from both the successor and the recipient. A RESTful API using the HTTP protocol is used for reception, and the data is sent in JSON format. The received information is stored in a MySQL® database, and transaction management is performed to maintain data integrity.

[0437] Next, the server analyzes the stored information using natural language processing techniques. The Python NLTK library is used for this analysis. The purpose of the analysis is to extract noun phrases from the text data and identify the requirements necessary for the procedure. For example, keywords such as "assets," "liabilities," and "heirs" are extracted.

[0438] The server generates prompt statements to be input into the generating AI model based on the analysis results. These prompt statements are sent to the generating AI model (e.g., OpenAI's GPT-3®), and the necessary documents are automatically generated. An example of a prompt statement is, "Please prepare an inheritance tax return based on the following asset list. Asset list: land, buildings, bank deposits."

[0439] The generated documents are sent electronically from the server to the relevant organizations. The SMTP protocol is used for transmission, and the documents are sent as emails.

[0440] Users can monitor the progress of the process through their device. The server sends a push notification to the user's device each time a step of the process is completed. Firebase Cloud Messaging is used for these notifications, and the notification content includes the completion status of the process and instructions for the next step.

[0441] This system allows users to efficiently manage complex asset transfer procedures. By utilizing a generative AI model, the necessary documents for the procedures are generated quickly and accurately, significantly reducing the burden on users.

[0442] ---

[0443] This description provides a specific embodiment for carrying out the invention.

[0444] The flow of a specific process in another embodiment will be explained using Figure 23.

[0445] Step 1:

[0446] The server receives succession-related information from both the successor and the recipient. The input is JSON data sent by the user via their terminal. The server receives the data using a RESTful API with the HTTP protocol and stores it in a MySQL database. Transaction management is performed during storage to maintain data integrity.

[0447] Step 2:

[0448] The server analyzes stored succession-related information using natural language processing techniques. The input is text data stored in a database. The server analyzes the text data using the Python NLTK library and extracts noun phrases. The output is the analysis result, which identifies the requirements necessary for the procedure. Specifically, it extracts keywords such as "assets," "liabilities," and "heirs."

[0449] Step 3:

[0450] The server generates prompt statements for input to the generating AI model based on the analysis results. The input is the analysis results obtained in step 2. The server creates prompt statements based on the analysis results and sends them to the generating AI model (e.g., OpenAI's GPT-3). An example of a prompt statement is, "Please prepare an inheritance tax return based on the following asset list. Asset list: land, buildings, deposits." The output is the prompt statement sent to the generating AI model.

[0451] Step 4:

[0452] The generative AI model receives a prompt and automatically generates the necessary document. The input is the prompt sent from the server in step 3. The generative AI model generates a document based on the prompt and returns it to the server in JSON format. The output is the generated document.

[0453] Step 5:

[0454] The server electronically sends the generated document to the relevant institution. The input is the document returned from the AI ​​model generated in step 4. The server sends the document as an email using the SMTP protocol. The output is the document sent to the relevant institution.

[0455] Step 6:

[0456] The user checks the progress of the procedure through their device. The server pushes a notification to the user's device each time a step of the procedure is completed. The input is the completion status of the procedure. The server sends the notification using Firebase Cloud Messaging, and the user receives the notification on their device. The output is the procedure progress notified to the user.

[0457] 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.

[0458] Data generation model 58 is a form of 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> 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.

[0459] Other examples of generative AI include Gemini® (registered trademark) (Internet search). <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) are some examples.

[0460] 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.

[0461] [Second Embodiment]

[0462] Figure 3 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 210 according to the second embodiment.

[0463] 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.

[0464] The data processing device 12 includes 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.

[0465] Computer 22 includes a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. A database 24 and a 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).

[0466] 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.

[0467] 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.

[0468] 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).

[0469] 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.

[0470] 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.

[0471] 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.

[0472] 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.

[0473] 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.

[0474] Next, the identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described.

[0475] "Example of form 1"

[0476] The present invention is a system using conversational AI. This system reduces the burden on the deceased and heirs by digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks. Specifically, when information related to inheritance is input, the conversational AI analyzes it and automatically generates the necessary procedures and tasks. It also automatically creates the necessary documents and sends them to the relevant institutions.

[0477] "Example of form 2"

[0478] Furthermore, this embodiment of the present invention also provides end-of-life support for social media. Specifically, when a person dies, the system identifies the social media accounts they used and automatically performs appropriate procedures. For example, it deletes social media accounts or notifies people of the death. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and also protects their privacy.

[0479] "Example of form 3"

[0480] Furthermore, this embodiment of the present invention also provides end-of-life support for social media. Specifically, when a person dies, the system identifies the social media accounts they used and automatically performs appropriate procedures. For example, it deletes social media accounts or notifies people of the death. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and also protects their privacy.

[0481] The following describes the processing flow for each example of the form.

[0482] "Example of form 1"

[0483] Step 1: The conversational AI is activated and collects information about the inheritance from the user. This information includes details about the deceased, the heirs, and the assets.

[0484] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the conversational AI automatically generates the necessary procedures and tasks. This includes drafting a will, creating an inheritance division agreement, and calculating inheritance tax.

[0485] Step 3: The conversational AI automatically creates the necessary documents and sends them to the relevant institutions. This saves time and effort for the deceased and their heirs.

[0486] "Example of form 2"

[0487] Step 1: Upon receiving information that the deceased has passed away, the system identifies the social media accounts that the person used.

[0488] Step 2: Automatically take appropriate action on the identified social media platforms. This includes deleting accounts and notifying them of deaths.

[0489] Step 3: Through these procedures, the burden on the bereaved family is reduced and the privacy of the deceased is protected.

[0490] (Example 1)

[0491] Next, we will describe Example 1 of Form 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".

[0492] The procedures related to property succession are complex and time-consuming, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the successor. Furthermore, difficulties in information sharing among stakeholders and managing the progress of procedures lead to delays and errors. In addition, end-of-life planning support through social networking services is insufficient.

[0493] 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.

[0494] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex procedures and tasks related to property succession through the digitization and integration of an interactive information processing device; means for the information processing device to receive succession-related information and analyze it using natural language processing technology; means for automatically generating necessary procedures and documents based on the analysis results; means for electronically sending the generated documents to relevant organizations; and means for notifying the user of the progress of the procedures. This makes it possible to improve the efficiency and accuracy of property succession procedures, facilitate information sharing among stakeholders, and realize end-of-life support in social network services.

[0495] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that receives input from a user, analyzes it using natural language processing technology, and provides the necessary information.

[0496] "Property succession" refers to the procedure of transferring property and rights from the person who is to be succeeded to the person who will succeed.

[0497] "Digitization and integration" refers to the process of centrally managing procedures and tasks using digital technology to improve efficiency.

[0498] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the transfer of property, such as the person being transferred, the person being transferred, and public institutions.

[0499] "Natural language processing technology" is a technology that enables computers to understand and analyze human language.

[0500] "Automatic document generation" refers to the process where a computer automatically creates the necessary documents based on the analysis results.

[0501] "Social networking services" refer to platforms on the internet for people to share information and interact with each other.

[0502] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist individuals with preparations and procedures they undertake while they are still alive.

[0503] The embodiment of this invention is a system for streamlining property succession procedures and reducing the burden on those involved. This system uses an interactive information processing device to receive input from the user and performs analysis using natural language processing technology.

[0504] The server uses a cloud-based platform, specifically utilizing common cloud services. The server receives information about asset succession submitted by users and securely stores it in a database. The received information is then fed into a generative AI model. This model uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the information and identify necessary procedures and documents.

[0505] Users access the system via a terminal and input information related to asset succession. The terminal can be an internet-connected PC or smartphone. Users can monitor the progress of the procedures provided by the system in real time.

[0506] The server automatically generates the necessary documents based on the analysis results. These documents are generated using standard document creation software and output in formats such as PDF. The generated documents are then sent electronically to the relevant organizations via email or a dedicated online portal.

[0507] For example, if a user enters "My father has passed away, and I want to inherit his estate," the system will automatically generate the information necessary for creating an inheritance division agreement and filing inheritance tax returns.

[0508] Example of a prompt:

[0509] "My father has passed away, and I would like to inherit his estate. Please tell me what procedures and documents are necessary."

[0510] In this way, the system can streamline the property transfer process and reduce the burden on those involved.

[0511] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0512] Step 1:

[0513] Users input information regarding property succession through their device. This information includes the name of the deceased, date of death, type and value of the estate, and information about the successor. The device used is a computer or smartphone with an internet connection. The entered information is transmitted to a server.

[0514] Step 2:

[0515] The server receives information sent by the user and stores it in a database. The received information is then input into a generative AI model. The server uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the information. As a result of the analysis, necessary procedures and documents are identified.

[0516] Step 3:

[0517] The generation AI model automatically generates necessary procedures and documents based on the analysis results. Specifically, this includes documents such as inheritance division agreements and inheritance tax returns. The generated documents are output in PDF format, among others.

[0518] Step 4:

[0519] The server electronically sends the generated documents to the relevant organizations. This sending is done via email or a dedicated online portal. The recipients are organizations specified by the user or organizations automatically identified by the system.

[0520] Step 5:

[0521] The server notifies the user of the progress of the procedure. Notifications are sent via email or the system's messaging function. Users can check the completion of the procedure and requests for additional information in real time.

[0522] In this way, the system can streamline the property transfer process and reduce the burden on those involved.

[0523] (Application Example 1)

[0524] Next, we will describe Application Example 1 of Form 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."

[0525] Inheritance procedures involve numerous documents and processes, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing inheritance-related payments is complex, potentially leading to delays and errors. Addressing these challenges and streamlining inheritance procedures to reduce the burden is crucial.

[0526] 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.

[0527] This invention includes a server that provides means for simplifying and visualizing the complex procedures and tasks related to inheritance through the digitalization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for resolving the issues of various stakeholders such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments, and electronic transaction means for managing payments necessary for inheritance procedures and enabling users to easily make payments. This makes it possible to streamline inheritance procedures and reduce the burden on the user.

[0528] An "interactive information processing system" is a system that receives input from a user, analyzes it using natural language processing, and provides appropriate information and procedures.

[0529] "The complicated procedures related to inheritance" refers to the preparation of documents and application procedures required based on inheritance laws and regulations.

[0530] "Digitalization and centralization" refers to the electronic processing and unified management of traditional paper-based procedures and information.

[0531] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex procedures and information visually in an easy-to-understand way, making it easy for users to comprehend.

[0532] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the inheritance process, such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments.

[0533] "Electronic transaction methods" refer to systems and methods for conducting financial transactions via the internet.

[0534] A "payment plan" outlines a schedule and method for efficiently making the payments required for inheritance procedures.

[0535] "Related institutions" refers to public institutions and financial institutions that accept necessary documents and payments in inheritance procedures.

[0536] The embodiment of the invention is a system aimed at streamlining and reducing the burden of inheritance procedures. This system uses an interactive information processing device to receive inheritance-related information from the user and analyzes it through natural language processing. Based on the analyzed information, it automatically calculates the necessary procedures and payments and proposes a payment plan to the user.

[0537] The server is developed using Python, with the Flask framework used to build the backend. The frontend is developed using React to provide the user interface. OpenAI's GPT is used as the generative AI model to parse user input and calculate the necessary payment. For payment processing, the Stripe API is used to conduct electronic transactions with relevant institutions.

[0538] As a concrete example, when a user enters "I want to handle the inheritance procedures for my father's estate" into a smartphone app, the server receives this information and analyzes it using OpenAI's GPT model. Based on the analysis results, the server proposes a payment plan to the user, such as "You will need 100,000 yen for real estate registration fees and 200,000 yen for inheritance tax." The user can then confirm these payments within the app and complete the payment simply by pressing a button.

[0539] An example of a prompt for a generating AI model is, "Calculate the payments required for inheritance procedures. Input data: {user's inheritance information}." Using this prompt, the AI ​​can generate an appropriate payment plan based on the user's input information.

[0540] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0541] Step 1:

[0542] The user enters information related to inheritance using their smartphone. The entered information is then sent from the device to the server as data necessary for the inheritance procedure.

[0543] Step 2:

[0544] The server sends a prompt message to OpenAI's GPT, a generative AI model, to analyze the received user inheritance information. The prompt message is "Calculate the payments required for inheritance procedures. Input data: {user's inheritance information}". The server uses this prompt message to request data analysis from the AI ​​model.

[0545] Step 3:

[0546] The generating AI model calculates the necessary payment items and amounts based on the received prompt and the user's inheritance information. The AI ​​model considers inheritance-related laws and regulations to generate an appropriate payment plan. The generated payment plan is returned to the server.

[0547] Step 4:

[0548] The server analyzes the payment plan received from the AI ​​model and formats the data for presentation to the user. This formatted data includes payment items and amounts in a user-friendly format.

[0549] Step 5:

[0550] The terminal displays the payment plan received from the server to the user. The user reviews the presented payment plan and takes action to make the payment as needed.

[0551] Step 6:

[0552] When a user initiates a payment, the device sends the payment information to the server. The server uses the Stripe API to execute the electronic transaction with the relevant institutions. Once the payment is complete, the server notifies the device of the result.

[0553] Step 7:

[0554] The terminal displays a payment completion notification received from the server to the user. This allows the user to confirm that the payment required for the inheritance procedure has been completed.

[0555] (Example 2)

[0556] Next, we will describe Example 2 of Form 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".

[0557] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, the procedures for managing and deleting social media accounts are often cumbersome and cause considerable emotional distress to surviving family members. There is a need to simplify these procedures and alleviate this burden.

[0558] 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.

[0559] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and integration of an interactive information processing device; means for collecting information of the deceased and for the information processing device to acquire the information using communication means; means for the information processing device to process the information using communication means and identify the information; means for automating the information processing using communication means based on the information identified by the information processing device; and means for the information processing device to notify the results of the information processing. This makes it possible to simplify and reduce the burden of inheritance-related procedures and to automate the management and deletion of SNS accounts.

[0560] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0561] The term "decedent" refers to a person who has passed away and whose property and rights are to be inherited.

[0562] An "heir" refers to a person who has the right to inherit the property and rights of the deceased.

[0563] "Public institutions" refer to public organizations such as the government and local authorities, and may be involved in inheritance-related procedures.

[0564] An "information processing device" is a device used for collecting, analyzing, and processing data, and is used for inheritance-related procedures and managing social media accounts.

[0565] "Communication means" refers to the means by which an information processing device exchanges information with external databases or services, and includes internet connectivity and APIs.

[0566] "Information processing" refers to a series of operations that involve analyzing collected data and performing necessary procedures.

[0567] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand manner, thereby aiding user comprehension.

[0568] "Automation" refers to the mechanical execution of procedures that would otherwise need to be done manually, with the aim of improving efficiency and reducing workload.

[0569] "Notification" refers to the act of informing a user of the results of information processing or the completion of a procedure, and is carried out via email or in-system messages.

[0570] The embodiment of this invention is a system for streamlining inheritance-related procedures and the management of social media accounts. This system operates through the cooperation of three parties: a server, a terminal, and a user.

[0571] The server first collects information about the deceased. Specifically, it retrieves information such as the deceased's name, email address, and phone number from the database. This information is extracted from the database using SQL queries. Next, the server uses the APIs of various social networking platforms to identify accounts based on the collected information. For example, it uses Facebook's Graph API or Twitter's API to search for the relevant account.

[0572] The terminal executes procedures on identified social networking service (SNS) accounts based on instructions from the server. Specifically, it sends requests to delete accounts or sends death notifications. These procedures are carried out through the APIs of each SNS. For example, for Facebook accounts, the Graph API is used to send deletion requests.

[0573] The user inputs prompts into the generating AI model, which then generates examples of specific procedures related to end-of-life support via social media. For example, by inputting the prompt, "Please tell me how to delete the deceased's Facebook account," the AI ​​model will generate specific procedural steps.

[0574] This system will simplify and reduce the burden of inheritance-related procedures, and automate the management and deletion of social media accounts.

[0575] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0576] Step 1:

[0577] The server collects information about the deceased. As input, it retrieves information such as the deceased's name, email address, and phone number from a database. Specifically, it extracts the necessary information from the database using SQL queries. The output provides basic information about the deceased. This information is used to identify subsequent social media accounts.

[0578] Step 2:

[0579] The server identifies the social media accounts. The information of the deceased obtained in Step 1 is used as input. The server uses the APIs of each social media platform to identify the accounts. Specifically, it uses Facebook's Graph API and Twitter's API to search for the relevant accounts. The output is the social media account information of the deceased.

[0580] Step 3:

[0581] The server automates the process. It uses the SNS account information identified in step 2 as input. The server automatically executes pre-configured procedures for the identified account. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests and death notifications. These procedures are performed through the API of each SNS. The output provides the completion status of the procedures.

[0582] Step 4:

[0583] The server notifies the user of the result. The completion status of the procedure obtained in step 3 is used as input. The server notifies the user that the procedure is complete. Specifically, this is done by sending an email using the SMTP protocol or by utilizing the system's notification function. A notification of procedure completion is sent to the user as output.

[0584] (Application Example 2)

[0585] Next, we will describe application example 2 of form example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 as the "terminal".

[0586] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, in the management of information processing device accounts, if proper procedures are not followed after a user's death, there is a risk of privacy violations and misuse. Solving these challenges, reducing the burden on users, and protecting privacy are essential.

[0587] 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.

[0588] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device; means for securely storing user-registered account information of the information processing device and automatically executing pre-configured procedures when the user's death is confirmed; and means for deleting accounts and sending notifications using the communication means of the information processing device and the communication protocol of each information processing device. This enables more efficient inheritance-related procedures and proper management of the user's information processing device.

[0589] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0590] The term "decedent" refers to an individual who has died leaving behind property.

[0591] An "heir" refers to an individual or organization that has the right to inherit the property of the deceased.

[0592] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a specific region.

[0593] An "interested party" refers to an individual or group that has an interest in a particular event or project.

[0594] An "information processing device" is an electronic device used to process data and perform specific functions.

[0595] "Communication methods" refer to the technologies and protocols used to send and receive information.

[0596] A "communication protocol" is a protocol that defines the rules and procedures for exchanging data between information processing devices.

[0597] "Account deletion" is the operation that erases user information registered on the information processing device.

[0598] "Notification" refers to a message or alert used to inform others of specific information.

[0599] The system for realizing this invention includes a server, a user terminal, and communication means for an information processing device. The server receives inheritance-related information provided by the user and digitizes and aggregates this information through an interactive information processing device. This simplifies and visualizes inheritance procedures.

[0600] The server securely stores the account information of the information processing device registered by the user. If the user's death is confirmed, the server automatically executes pre-configured procedures. This process includes deleting the account and sending notifications using the communication means of the information processing device, in accordance with the communication protocols of each device.

[0601] Specifically, the server receives input from user devices such as smartphones and computers and stores account information in a database (e.g., Firebase). When a user's death is confirmed, the server uses social media APIs (e.g., Facebook API, Twitter API) to send an account deletion request and notifies the user if necessary.

[0602] In implementing this system, it is also possible to use a generative AI model to analyze user input and suggest appropriate procedures. For example, if a user has registered Facebook and Twitter accounts, the server will use the Facebook API to send an account deletion request and the Twitter API to send a death notification to followers.

[0603] An example of a prompt message is: "Create a program that uses the APIs of each social networking service to delete accounts and send notifications when a user's death is confirmed, based on the social networking service account information registered by the user."

[0604] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0605] Step 1:

[0606] The user uses a device to enter inheritance-related information and social media account information. The device sends this information to the server. The entered data includes the user's personal information, social media account login information, and documents required for inheritance procedures. The server stores the received data in a database.

[0607] Step 2:

[0608] The server uses a generative AI model to analyze inheritance-related information provided by the user. The user's inheritance information is used as input data. Based on the analysis results, the server generates suggestions for simplifying and visualizing inheritance procedures. The output is a set of procedural suggestions for the user.

[0609] Step 3:

[0610] If a user's death is confirmed, the server automatically executes pre-configured procedures. The user's death confirmation information is used as input. The server uses the SNS API to send account deletion requests to each SNS and sends notifications as needed. The output includes confirmation of account deletion and notification sending.

[0611] Step 4:

[0612] The server uses the communication means of the information processing device to delete accounts and send notifications in accordance with the communication protocol of each information processing device. Access information from the SNS API is used as input. The server accesses SNS using the API key and sends an account deletion request. The output is a deletion completion notification from SNS.

[0613] Step 5:

[0614] The server notifies the user of the progress of the inheritance procedures and SNS account management. The results of each processing step are used as input. The server sends a notification to the user's terminal reporting the completion status of the procedures. The output is a notification sent to the user.

[0615] (Example 3)

[0616] Next, we will describe Embodiment 3 of Embodiment Example 3. 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".

[0617] The procedures involved in inheriting property are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the inheritors. Furthermore, managing user accounts on social networking services also poses a considerable emotional burden for surviving family members. There is a need to address these challenges and simplify procedures to reduce the burden on individuals.

[0618] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[0619] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and integrating property succession procedures through an interactive information processing device, means for inputting information of the inheritor, and means for identifying user accounts of social network services via a communication network and automatically executing related procedures. This makes it possible to simplify property succession procedures and reduce the burden of managing user accounts in social network services.

[0620] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through interaction with the user and digitizes and integrates necessary procedures and tasks.

[0621] "Procedures related to property transfer" refers to all legal and administrative procedures required when transferring property from the deceased to the successor.

[0622] "Digitization and integration" refers to the process of unifying traditional paper-based or individual procedures using digital technology, and managing and executing them efficiently.

[0623] The term "inheritor" refers to an individual who is in a position to pass on property or rights to another person.

[0624] The term "heir" refers to an individual or organization that is in a position to inherit property or rights from the person being inherited.

[0625] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a region, and may be involved in procedures related to property inheritance.

[0626] "Interested parties" refer to individuals or organizations that are directly or indirectly affected in the inheritance of property.

[0627] A "communication network" is the infrastructure used to send and receive information, and includes the internet and dedicated lines.

[0628] "Social networking services" refer to online platforms that allow people to share information and interact via the internet.

[0629] A "user account" refers to the identification information necessary for an individual to use a social networking service.

[0630] "To execute automatically" means that the system completes the procedure independently, without requiring human intervention.

[0631] "Notification" refers to a means of informing relevant parties of specific information, including email and in-app notifications.

[0632] The embodiments for carrying out this invention are as follows:

[0633] The user uses a terminal to enter the inheritor's basic information. This information includes name, date of birth, and types of social networking services used. The terminal then sends this information to the server.

[0634] The server uses the received information about the inherited person to perform a search to identify user accounts on social networking services. The server uses a Python script to access the APIs of each social networking service and search for the relevant accounts. Specifically, it uses the Facebook and Twitter APIs to search for accounts using name and date of birth.

[0635] The server automatically performs the necessary procedures for identified user accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests using the Facebook API and death notifications via the Twitter API. This automatically deletes the accounts and sends notifications.

[0636] The server notifies the user when the procedure is complete. The server informs the user of the completion status via email or in-app notification. This allows the user to confirm that the procedure was completed successfully.

[0637] For example, if a user enters "The name of the person to be inherited is Taro Yamada, the date of birth is January 1, 1980, and the social media platforms used are Facebook and Twitter" on their device, the server will use the Facebook API to search for the account of "Taro Yamada" and send a deletion request. Similarly, it will use the Twitter API to send a death notification.

[0638] An example of a prompt to be input to the generating AI model is, "Generate a program that identifies the inherited user's SNS account and performs deletion or notification procedures." This prompt prompt causes the AI ​​model to generate the necessary program code. The process flow in Example 3 is explained using Figure 15.

[0639] Step 1:

[0640] The user uses a terminal to enter the basic information of the person to be inherited. This information includes name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services used. This information is sent from the terminal to the server. The server stores the received information in a database and prepares it for subsequent processing.

[0641] Step 2:

[0642] The server performs a search to identify user accounts on social networking services based on the stored information of the inherited person. The server uses a Python script to access the API of each social networking service and search for the relevant account. The input is the name and date of birth of the inherited person, and the output is the ID of the identified account and related information.

[0643] Step 3:

[0644] The server automatically performs the necessary procedures for identified user accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests using the Facebook API and death notifications via the Twitter API. The input is the ID of the identified account, and the output is the result of the procedures. The server executes these procedures asynchronously to improve processing efficiency.

[0645] Step 4:

[0646] The server notifies the user when the procedure is complete. The server informs the user of the procedure's completion status via email or in-app notifications. The input is the result of the procedure's execution, and the output is a notification message sent to the user. This allows the user to confirm that the procedure was completed successfully.

[0647] (Application Example 3)

[0648] Next, we will describe application example 3 of form example 3. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 as the "terminal".

[0649] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing accounts for information exchange services requires appropriate handling upon a user's death, and performing this manually places a considerable emotional burden on surviving family members. There is a need to address these challenges, simplify procedures, and protect privacy.

[0650] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[0651] This invention includes a server that provides means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for resolving issues for various stakeholders such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments, and means for managing user-registered account information for information exchange services, and automatically contacting each information exchange platform upon the user's death to delete or commemorate the account. This reduces the burden of inheritance-related procedures and enables appropriate account management in information exchange services.

[0652] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0653] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal and administrative procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's assets and rights to the heirs.

[0654] "Digitization and centralization" refers to the process of streamlining traditional paper-based or individual procedures by using digital technology for unified management.

[0655] "Visualization" refers to making complex information or procedures easier to understand by displaying them visually in an easy-to-understand manner.

[0656] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the inheritance, such as the deceased, the heirs, and local governments.

[0657] An "information exchange service" is an online platform for users to share and interact with each other.

[0658] "Account information" refers to personal information and authentication information registered by users in an information exchange service.

[0659] "Memorialization" refers to changing a user's account to a special state after their death, providing features to commemorate the deceased.

[0660] To implement this invention, it is necessary to construct a system in which a server and a user's terminal work in cooperation. The server uses an interactive information processing device to receive input from the user and handle inheritance-related procedures and account management for information exchange services. Specifically, the server securely stores the user's registered account information for information exchange services and automatically notifies each information exchange platform when the user's death is confirmed. This enables the deletion of accounts and memorialization procedures to be carried out.

[0661] The server uses APIs for information exchange services (e.g., Facebook Graph API and Twitter API) to send requests for managing, deleting, and commemorating account information. The user's device is a smartphone or personal computer, and it provides an interface for users to register their account information while they are still alive.

[0662] For example, if a user has registered both Facebook and Twitter accounts, upon confirmation of the user's death, the server will use the Facebook Graph API to commemorate the account and the Twitter API to delete the account. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and protects their privacy.

[0663] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to automatically generate appropriate procedures based on user input. An example of a prompt message is: "Please provide instructions for developing an application that automatically deletes or commemorates a user's registered information exchange service account when their death is confirmed."

[0664] The flow of the specific processing in Application Example 3 will be explained using Figure 16.

[0665] Step 1:

[0666] Users register their account information for information exchange services using a terminal. As input, users provide account IDs and authentication information for each service. The terminal encrypts this information and sends it to the server. As output, the server securely stores the encrypted account information.

[0667] Step 2:

[0668] The server periodically checks for user survival. It takes data about the user's survival status as input. The server uses a generative AI model to generate prompt messages to determine the user's survival status and compares them with external databases and public records. As output, it updates the user's survival or death status.

[0669] Step 3:

[0670] If a user's death is confirmed, the server uses the APIs of registered information exchange services to send requests for account deletion or memorialization. The server uses the user's death status and account information as input. The server generates and sends requests in a format appropriate for each service's API. The server receives responses from each service as output and confirms the completion of the process.

[0671] Step 4:

[0672] The server notifies the bereaved family of the processing results. As input, the server uses responses and processing status from each service. The server sends emails or messages to the bereaved family to inform them that the account deletion or memorialization is complete. As output, the notification to the bereaved family is complete.

[0673] 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.

[0674] "Example of form 1"

[0675] One embodiment of this system is a conversational AI system incorporating an emotion engine. This system analyzes the user's emotions from their tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice, and responds accordingly. For example, if the system senses that the user is confused, it provides more detailed explanations and guidance. If the system senses that the user is angry, it offers an apology and attempts to resolve the problem.

[0676] "Example of form 2"

[0677] Another embodiment involves a system that uses an emotion engine to adjust suggestions for inheritance-related procedures and tasks. This system recognizes the user's emotions and adjusts the suggested procedures and tasks accordingly. For example, if the system determines that the user is feeling stressed, it will suggest simplifying the procedure or resuming it later. This reduces the user's stress and provides a better experience.

[0678] "Example of form 3"

[0679] Another embodiment involves a system that uses an emotion engine to adjust end-of-life planning support suggestions on social media. This system recognizes the user's emotions and adjusts the end-of-life planning support suggestions accordingly. For example, if the system determines that the user is feeling sad, it will suggest end-of-life planning support on social media at an appropriate time. This provides appropriate end-of-life planning support that takes the user's emotions into consideration.

[0680] The following describes the processing flow for each example of the form.

[0681] "Example of form 1"

[0682] Step 1: Begin interaction with the user. During this interaction, collect information such as the user's tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[0683] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[0684] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, respond in a way that matches the user's emotions. For example, if you sense that the user is confused, provide a detailed explanation; if you sense that the user is angry, offer an apology.

[0685] "Example of form 2"

[0686] Step 1: Begin a conversation with the user and gather information about inheritance-related procedures and tasks. At this time, also collect the user's tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[0687] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[0688] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, adjust the suggested procedures and tasks according to the user's emotions. For example, if it is determined that the user is feeling stressed, simplify the procedure or suggest resuming it later.

[0689] "Example of form 3"

[0690] Step 1: Begin conversations with users and gather information about end-of-life planning support on social media. At this time, also collect information about the users' tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[0691] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[0692] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, adjust the end-of-life support suggestions on social media according to the user's emotions. For example, if it is determined that the user is feeling sad, suggest end-of-life support on social media at an appropriate time.

[0693] (Example 1)

[0694] Next, we will describe Example 1 of Form 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".

[0695] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and often place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, the emotional stress involved can delay the process. End-of-life planning support through information-sharing services is also a crucial issue. It is necessary to address these challenges and simplify procedures while reducing the burden on heirs.

[0696] 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.

[0697] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for analyzing input information and automatically generating necessary procedures and tasks, and means for analyzing voice and facial expressions and responding according to the user's emotions. This reduces the burden of inheritance procedures, alleviates emotional stress, and enables efficient procedure progress.

[0698] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and supports necessary procedures and tasks.

[0699] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's assets to the heirs.

[0700] "Digitization and centralization" refers to converting traditional paper-based procedures into a digital format and managing them centrally.

[0701] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand manner.

[0702] "Interested parties" refer to all parties involved in the inheritance process, specifically the deceased, the heirs, and public institutions.

[0703] "Information analysis" is the process of analyzing input data to identify necessary procedures and tasks.

[0704] "Emotional analysis" is a technology that analyzes a user's voice and facial expressions to determine their emotional state.

[0705] An "information sharing service" refers to a platform for sharing information with others via the internet.

[0706] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist individuals with preparations and procedures they undertake while they are still alive.

[0707] This invention is an interactive information processing system designed to streamline inheritance-related procedures and reduce the burden on users. The system automates procedures by facilitating information exchange between a server, a terminal, and the user.

[0708] The server uses a cloud-based server equipped with a high-performance processor and sufficient memory. The server analyzes inheritance-related information entered by users using a generative AI model. Specifically, it leverages natural language processing techniques to identify necessary procedures and relevant laws from the input information. A general-purpose natural language processing model is used as the generative AI model.

[0709] The terminal provides an interface for the user to input information. Through the terminal, the user enters information such as the deceased's name, date of death, and information about the heirs. The terminal then sends this information to the server.

[0710] The server generates a list of necessary procedures based on the analysis results and automatically creates the required documents. These documents are stored electronically and sent to the relevant authorities as needed. Furthermore, the server uses speech recognition and facial recognition software to analyze the user's emotions. If the user is confused, the server provides detailed explanations and additional guidance. If the user is angry, the server apologizes and outlines specific steps for resolving the problem.

[0711] For example, if a user enters into the terminal "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process, but I don't know what to do," the server analyzes this information and generates a list of necessary procedures and documents. The server provides the generated information to the user and sends the necessary documents to the relevant organizations.

[0712] Examples of prompt messages include the following:

[0713] "Please tell me what documents are required for inheritance procedures."

[0714] "Please explain the procedure when there are multiple heirs."

[0715] "Please explain in detail how inheritance tax is calculated."

[0716] In this way, the system not only analyzes user input and automatically generates necessary procedures and documents, but also reduces the burden of inheritance procedures by responding in accordance with the user's emotions.

[0717] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 17.

[0718] Step 1:

[0719] The user uses a terminal to input information related to inheritance. Specifically, they input the deceased's name, date of death, and information about the heirs. The terminal sends this information to the server. The entered information is used as data for analysis on the server.

[0720] Step 2:

[0721] The server analyzes the received information using a generative AI model. The generative AI model utilizes natural language processing technology to identify necessary procedures and relevant laws from the input information. Specifically, it analyzes the input text data and extracts the steps required for inheritance procedures. As a result of the analysis, a list of necessary procedures is generated.

[0722] Step 3:

[0723] Based on the analysis results, the server generates a list of necessary procedures. These may include, for example, the creation of an inheritance division agreement and the filing of inheritance tax returns. The server then presents these procedures to the user. The output provides a list of the procedures the user must perform.

[0724] Step 4:

[0725] The server automatically creates the necessary documents. Specifically, it generates documents such as inheritance division agreements and inheritance tax returns based on templates. The generated documents are stored electronically and sent to the relevant institutions as needed. The completed documents are then output.

[0726] Step 5:

[0727] The server analyzes the user's tone of voice and facial expressions using an emotion engine. When the user provides voice input, speech recognition software is used to analyze the tone of voice. Facial expression recognition software is used to read the user's emotions from their facial expressions. The user's voice data and video data are used as input, and the user's emotional state is determined as output.

[0728] Step 6:

[0729] Based on the sentiment analysis results, the server takes appropriate action for the user. If it determines that the user is confused, the server provides detailed explanations and additional guidance. If it determines that the user is angry, the server apologizes and provides specific steps for resolving the problem. The output provides the appropriate response for the user.

[0730] (Application Example 1)

[0731] Next, we will describe Application Example 1 of Form 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."

[0732] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, they involve emotional stress, highlighting the need for streamlined procedures and emotional support. Additionally, the payment of associated fees is cumbersome, necessitating a unified system to address these issues.

[0733] 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.

[0734] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for analyzing the user's emotions using an emotion analysis device and providing appropriate responses, and means for streamlining fee payments by incorporating an electronic payment function. This enables efficient inheritance procedures, emotional support for users, and simplification of fee payments.

[0735] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0736] The term "decedent" refers to a person who has died leaving behind property.

[0737] An "heir" refers to a person who has the right to inherit the property of the deceased.

[0738] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a region, and in inheritance procedures, it issues necessary documents and provides support for the procedures.

[0739] "Interested parties" refer to individuals or organizations that are directly or indirectly affected in the inheritance process.

[0740] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes a user's emotions based on their tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice, and then responds appropriately.

[0741] "Electronic payment functionality" refers to a feature that enables online monetary transactions and is used to streamline the payment of fees.

[0742] An "information sharing network" is an online platform for users to share information, and in the context of end-of-life planning support, it is used as a place to delete accounts or notify others of death.

[0743] The system for implementing this invention consists of an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, a server equipped with electronic payment functionality, and a terminal used by the user. The server receives inheritance-related information from the user, analyzes that information using the interactive information processing device, and automatically generates the necessary procedures and documents. Furthermore, it analyzes the user's emotions using the emotion analysis device and takes appropriate action. For example, if the user is confused, the server provides detailed guidance, and if the user is angry, it apologizes and works to resolve the problem.

[0744] Furthermore, the server streamlines fee payments through electronic payment functionality. Users can input the necessary information for inheritance procedures via a terminal and proceed with the process following guidance provided by the server. This streamlines inheritance procedures, provides emotional support to users, and simplifies fee payments.

[0745] For example, when a user enters "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process" into the terminal, the server analyzes the information and generates the necessary procedures and documents. Furthermore, an emotion analysis device analyzes the user's emotions and provides appropriate support. An example of a prompt would be, "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process. Please tell me what procedures and documents I need."

[0746] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 18.

[0747] Step 1:

[0748] The user enters inheritance-related information via their device. This information includes the deceased's name, the relationship of the heir, and the type of property. The device then transmits this information to the server.

[0749] Step 2:

[0750] The server analyzes the received information using an interactive information processing device. During the analysis process, a generative AI model is used to identify the necessary procedures and documents. As output, a list of procedures and templates for the required documents are generated.

[0751] Step 3:

[0752] The server uses an emotion analyzer to analyze the user's emotions from their input. This input includes the user's tone of voice and word choice. Based on the analysis results, if the user is confused, the server outputs detailed guidance; if the user is angry, it outputs an apology and a suggestion for resolving the problem.

[0753] Step 4:

[0754] The server processes the payment of fees through its electronic payment function. Once the user enters their payment information, the server processes the payment via the payment gateway. The user is then notified of the payment completion.

[0755] Step 5:

[0756] The server sends a list of generated procedures and required documents to the user's terminal. The user can review this information on their terminal and proceed with the procedures according to the instructions. The progress of the procedures is displayed to the user as output.

[0757] (Example 2)

[0758] Next, we will describe Example 2 of Form 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".

[0759] The procedures involved in asset transfer are complex, placing a significant burden on both the transferor and the transferee. Furthermore, account management on social networking services is cumbersome, and privacy protection is sometimes inadequate. Additionally, there is a lack of measures to alleviate the stress users experience during the process. Addressing these challenges is essential.

[0760] 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.

[0761] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and integrating asset succession-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for recognizing the user's emotions using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggested procedures and tasks accordingly, and means for providing end-of-life support through social network services using an information and communication device. This makes it possible to simplify procedures and reduce the burden of asset succession, protect privacy, and reduce user stress.

[0762] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates procedures and tasks related to asset succession.

[0763] "Asset succession" refers to the entire process of transferring property and rights from the person being succeeded to the person succeeding.

[0764] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes the user's input information and recognizes their emotional state.

[0765] An "information and communication device" is a device used to send and receive data via a network and to perform operations related to social network services.

[0766] "Social networking services" refer to platforms on the internet for people to interact and share information.

[0767] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist users in making preparations for what happens after their death, and this particularly includes managing and deleting digital assets.

[0768] One embodiment of this invention is a system for efficiently carrying out procedures and tasks related to asset succession. This system consists of an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, and an information communication device.

[0769] The server prompts the user to input information about the successor through an interactive information processing device. This information includes the successor's name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services they use. Based on this information, the server identifies relevant account information from the database. A general database management system can be used for database management.

[0770] The terminal uses an emotion analysis device to analyze the user's input text. The emotion analysis utilizes a natural language processing library to determine whether the user is experiencing stress. This allows for the suggestion of procedures tailored to the user's emotional state.

[0771] Information and communication devices utilize the APIs of specific social networking services to delete or notify users of the account's death. For example, a request to delete an account can be sent using the API of a particular service.

[0772] For example, if a user enters "I want to delete my father's account," the server retrieves the father's account information from the database and sends a deletion request via the information and communication device. The terminal analyzes the user's emotions and, if it determines that the user is feeling stressed, makes a suggestion such as "Would you like to simplify the process?"

[0773] An example of a prompt to input into the generating AI model is: "Generate a system to streamline asset succession procedures. Include a function that uses sentiment analysis to adjust the suggested procedures."

[0774] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 19.

[0775] Step 1:

[0776] The user enters information about the person to be succeeded. Specifically, they enter the person's name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services they use. This information serves as basic data for the server to identify the relevant account information from the database. The entered information is used as parameters to send queries to the database.

[0777] Step 2:

[0778] The server uses the information received from the user to search the database for the account information of the successor's social networking services. Using the database management system, it executes an SQL query to retrieve the relevant account information. The output provides the identified account information. This information is used in the next step.

[0779] Step 3:

[0780] The server uses the identified account information to access the APIs of various social networking services. Specifically, it sends requests for account deletion and death notifications. For example, it uses the API of a particular service to send a deletion request and receives a success or failure status. The output includes the response status from each service.

[0781] Step 4:

[0782] The terminal uses an emotion analysis device to analyze the user's input text. It uses a natural language processing library to determine the user's emotional state. It receives user text data as input and outputs an emotional state (e.g., whether the user is feeling stressed). This result is used in the next step.

[0783] Step 5:

[0784] The device makes procedural suggestions to the user based on the results of sentiment analysis. Specifically, if it determines that the user is experiencing stress, it will display a suggestion such as, "Would you like to simplify the procedure?". It receives the results of sentiment analysis as input and generates a suggestion message for the user as output.

[0785] (Application Example 2)

[0786] Next, we will describe application example 2 of form example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 as the "terminal".

[0787] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing accounts on social networking services and providing end-of-life planning support are also important issues. Additionally, there is a need to propose appropriate procedures tailored to the emotional state of the user. It is essential to address these challenges, reduce the burden on users, and protect their privacy.

[0788] 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.

[0789] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for adjusting inheritance procedure suggestions according to the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device, and means for managing accounts for social network services via an information and communication network, and for automatically deleting accounts and sending death notifications upon the user's death. This makes it possible to simplify inheritance-related procedures, reduce the burden on users, and protect their privacy.

[0790] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0791] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes a user's emotional state and, based on the results, proposes appropriate inheritance procedures.

[0792] An "information and communication network" is a network for sending and receiving data, and it enables account management for social network services.

[0793] A "social networking service" is a platform for users to interact with others online, and it requires account management and end-of-life planning support.

[0794] "Account deletion" is the procedure for erasing a user's account on social networking services upon their death.

[0795] A "death notification" is the procedure for informing relevant parties of a user's death via social networking services.

[0796] A system for carrying out this invention comprises a server, user terminals, and an information and communication network. The server includes an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, and a function for managing accounts for social network services via the information and communication network.

[0797] The server processes inheritance-related information received from user terminals, digitizing and centralizing it. This allows users to simplify and visualize inheritance procedures. The emotion analysis device analyzes the user's emotional state and, based on the results, suggests appropriate inheritance procedures. For example, if the user is experiencing stress, it can suggest simplifying the procedures.

[0798] Furthermore, the server manages accounts for social networking services via the information and communication network, and automatically deletes accounts and sends death notifications upon a user's death. This protects user privacy and reduces the burden on surviving family members.

[0799] For example, if a user registers both Facebook and Twitter accounts, the server uses the Facebook Graph API to delete the accounts and the Twitter API to send death notifications to followers. For sentiment analysis, the Google Cloud Natural Language API is used to analyze the user's emotions and provide appropriate suggestions.

[0800] By using a generative AI model, it is possible to generate prompt messages that correspond to the user's emotional state. An example of a prompt message is, "Analyze the user's emotional state and, if they are feeling stressed, suggest ways to simplify the procedure."

[0801] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 20.

[0802] Step 1:

[0803] The user terminal transmits inheritance-related information and social networking service account information to the server. The input is information registered by the user, and the output is data transmission to the server. The user terminal converts the input information into an appropriate format and sends it to the server.

[0804] Step 2:

[0805] The server processes received inheritance-related information using an interactive information processing device, digitizing and aggregating it. Input is inheritance information sent from user terminals, and output is digitized inheritance procedure information. The server stores the information in a database and, as needed, visualizes the progress of the procedures.

[0806] Step 3:

[0807] The server analyzes the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device. The input is the user's inheritance-related behavioral data, and the output is the analyzed emotional state. The server uses the Google Cloud Natural Language API to perform emotion analysis and evaluate the user's stress level.

[0808] Step 4:

[0809] The server uses a generative AI model to create inheritance procedure proposals based on the analyzed emotional state. The input is the result of the emotional analysis, and the output is the proposal presented to the user. The server inputs prompt sentences into the generative AI model and performs the operation of generating appropriate proposals.

[0810] Step 5:

[0811] The server manages accounts for social networking services via the information and communication network, and automatically deletes accounts and sends death notifications upon a user's death. The input is the user's death information, and the output is the result of the account deletion or notification. The server uses the Facebook Graph API and Twitter API to perform account operations.

[0812] (Example 3)

[0813] Next, we will describe Embodiment 3 of Embodiment Example 3. 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".

[0814] The procedures for inheriting assets are complex and place a significant burden on those involved. Furthermore, account management for information exchange devices is often inadequate after the death of the inheritor, highlighting the need for privacy protection and reduced burden on surviving family members. Additionally, there is a lack of appropriate support that considers the feelings of users, necessitating flexible responses that are sensitive to their emotions.

[0815] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[0816] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex procedures and tasks related to property inheritance through the informatization and integration of information via an interactive information processing device; means for recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly; and means for identifying the account of the information exchange device based on the inheritor's information using the information processing device and automatically performing appropriate procedures. This enables simplification and efficiency of property inheritance procedures, appropriate management of the information exchange device, and flexible support tailored to the user's emotions.

[0817] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user, and simplifies and visualizes procedures and tasks related to property inheritance.

[0818] "Property transfer" refers to the entire process of transferring property and rights from the deceased to the successor.

[0819] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that recognizes the emotional state of a user and makes appropriate suggestions based on that information.

[0820] An "information exchange device" is a device used by users to send and receive information, and generally includes accounts for social media and email.

[0821] A "generative information processing model" refers to algorithms and programs that generate suggestions tailored to the user's emotions and circumstances.

[0822] "Informatization and integration" refers to processing procedures and tasks as digital data and managing them centrally.

[0823] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand format.

[0824] "Automated means" refers to functions that allow the system to independently execute procedures without requiring manual intervention.

[0825] A description of embodiments for carrying out this invention will be given.

[0826] The server generates a program that digitizes and integrates procedures and tasks related to property inheritance through an interactive information processing device. This program has the function of recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly. It also includes a function that uses the information processing device to identify the account of the information exchange device based on the inheritor's information and automatically perform the appropriate procedures.

[0827] Specifically, the server uses emotion analysis software called "EmotionAPI" to analyze text and voice data entered by the user through the device. This allows the server to understand the user's emotional state in real time and offer end-of-life support suggestions at the appropriate time. Furthermore, the server uses the API of the information exchange device to retrieve the account information of the person to be inherited and automate procedures such as deletion and notification.

[0828] For example, if a user enters "My father has passed away" into their device, the server sends this text to the "EmotionAPI" and determines that the user is feeling sad. The server then identifies the deceased's social media accounts and initiates the deletion process. Finally, the server displays a message to the user such as, "We have assisted with the end-of-life planning of your social media accounts. Is there anything else we can help you with?"

[0829] An example of a prompt message might be, "Generate appropriate SNS end-of-life support suggestions when the user is feeling sad." This allows the generation AI model to generate suggestions that respond to the user's emotions. The specific processing flow in Example 3 will be explained using Figure 21.

[0830] Step 1:

[0831] Users input emotional information through their devices. Specifically, they input data expressing their emotions, such as "My father has passed away," in text or voice. This input data is sent to the server.

[0832] Step 2:

[0833] The server sends the received user input data to the "EmotionAPI" for emotion analysis. Based on the input data, the EmotionAPI analyzes the user's emotional state and outputs emotion labels such as sadness or joy. This output indicates what emotions the user is currently experiencing.

[0834] Step 3:

[0835] Based on the results of the emotion analysis, the server uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate prompt messages. For example, if the user is feeling sad, it might generate a prompt message such as, "Would you like to receive end-of-life planning support via social media?" This prompt message is designed to provide suggestions tailored to the user's emotions.

[0836] Step 4:

[0837] The server identifies the SNS account using the information exchange device's API based on the inheritor's information. Specifically, it uses the inheritor's name and email address to retrieve account information through the SNS's API. The output of this step is the identified account information.

[0838] Step 5:

[0839] The server automatically performs deletion and death notification procedures for identified social media accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests via the social media API and, if necessary, sends death notification messages. The output of this step indicates the completion of account deletion or notification.

[0840] Step 6:

[0841] The server sends the generated prompt to the terminal and displays it to the user. The user can review the suggestion on the terminal and select the next action as needed. The output of this step is a display of the suggestion to the user.

[0842] (Application Example 3)

[0843] Next, we will describe application example 3 of form example 3. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 as the "terminal".

[0844] In modern society, inheritance procedures are extremely complex, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, while managing accounts for information exchange services requires appropriate handling upon a user's death, doing so manually places a heavy emotional burden on surviving family members. Moreover, there is a lack of timely support that takes into account the emotional state of users, highlighting the need to address these challenges.

[0845] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[0846] This invention includes a server that, through an interactive information processing device, simplifies and visualizes complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through informatization and integration; a means for recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly; and a means for managing the user's registered account information for the information exchange service using the information processing device, and for automatically deleting the account and notifying the user of their death upon their passing. This enables the simplification of inheritance-related procedures and provides end-of-life support through the information exchange service at an appropriate time, taking into consideration the user's emotions.

[0847] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0848] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that recognizes a user's emotional state and makes appropriate suggestions based on that information.

[0849] An "information processing device" is a device that manages account information for information exchange services registered by users and automatically deletes accounts or sends death notifications as needed.

[0850] An "information exchange service" is an online platform used by users to exchange information with others.

[0851] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal and administrative procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's property and rights to the heirs.

[0852] "End-of-life support" refers to support activities that involve managing and deleting accounts for information exchange services and notifying others of the death of a user.

[0853] The system for carrying out this invention includes a server, a user terminal, and an emotion analysis device. The server functions as an interactive information processing device, receiving input from the user and digitizing and integrating inheritance-related procedures and tasks. This allows the user to simplify complex procedures and proceed efficiently based on visualized information.

[0854] The emotion analysis device recognizes the user's emotional state in real time and sends that data to a server. Based on this data, the server makes suggestions at the appropriate time according to the user's emotions. For example, if the server determines that the user is feeling sad, it will display a message such as, "This may be a difficult time for you, but we can help you with managing your information exchange service account. Please let us know when you are ready."

[0855] The information processing device manages account information for information exchange services registered by users. Upon a user's death, the server automatically deletes the account and notifies the deceased. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and protects privacy.

[0856] This system is programmed using Python and utilizes the Google Cloud Natural Language API for sentiment analysis. Account management for information exchange services uses the APIs of each service (e.g., Facebook Graph API, Twitter API).

[0857] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to analyze the user's emotional state and propose appropriate end-of-life support. An example of a prompt would be, "Please tell me how to analyze the user's emotional state and propose appropriate end-of-life support."

[0858] The flow of the specific processing in Application Example 3 will be explained using Figure 22.

[0859] Step 1:

[0860] The user inputs inheritance-related procedural information via a terminal. The terminal sends this information to a server. The server stores the received information in a database and performs data processing and integration. This makes the progress of the procedure visible.

[0861] Step 2:

[0862] The emotion analysis device monitors the user's emotional state in real time. It receives the user's voice and text data as input and performs emotion analysis using the Google Cloud Natural Language API. The analysis results are sent to the server, where the user's emotional state is recognized.

[0863] Step 3:

[0864] The server generates appropriate suggestions based on data from the emotion analysis device, tailored to the user's emotions and timing. Using a generative AI model, it creates prompt messages that match the user's emotional state and displays them on the terminal. For example, if the user is feeling sad, the server might generate a message such as, "This may be a difficult time for you, but we can help you with managing your information exchange service account."

[0865] Step 4:

[0866] The user enters instructions into a terminal to manage their account information for the information exchange service. The terminal sends these instructions to the server. The server uses the API of each information exchange service to retrieve the user's account information and automatically deletes accounts or notifies users of their death as needed.

[0867] Step 5:

[0868] The server sends the processing results to the terminal and notifies the user. This allows the user to check the completion status of the procedure and the results of account management.

[0869] (Other examples)

[0870] Since this is the same as the specific processing described in the other embodiments of the first embodiment above, the explanation will be omitted.

[0871] 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.

[0872] The data generation model 58 is a form of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). One example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search).<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> Examples of generative AI include those described above. 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 shown 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.

[0873] Other examples of generative AI include Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) are some examples.

[0874] 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.

[0882] 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.

[0883] 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.

[0887] Next, the identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described.

[0888] "Example of form 1"

[0889] The present invention is a system using conversational AI. This system reduces the burden on the deceased and heirs by digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks. Specifically, when information related to inheritance is input, the conversational AI analyzes it and automatically generates the necessary procedures and tasks. It also automatically creates the necessary documents and sends them to the relevant institutions.

[0890] "Example of form 2"

[0891] Furthermore, this embodiment of the present invention also provides end-of-life support for social media. Specifically, when a person dies, the system identifies the social media accounts they used and automatically performs appropriate procedures. For example, it deletes social media accounts or notifies people of the death. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and also protects their privacy.

[0892] "Example of form 3"

[0893] Furthermore, this embodiment of the present invention also provides end-of-life support for social media. Specifically, when a person dies, the system identifies the social media accounts they used and automatically performs appropriate procedures. For example, it deletes social media accounts or notifies people of the death. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and also protects their privacy.

[0894] The following describes the processing flow for each example of the form.

[0895] "Example of form 1"

[0896] Step 1: The conversational AI is activated and collects information about the inheritance from the user. This information includes details about the deceased, the heirs, and the assets.

[0897] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the conversational AI automatically generates the necessary procedures and tasks. This includes drafting a will, creating an inheritance division agreement, and calculating inheritance tax.

[0898] Step 3: The conversational AI automatically creates the necessary documents and sends them to the relevant institutions. This saves time and effort for the deceased and their heirs.

[0899] "Example of form 2"

[0900] Step 1: Upon receiving information that the deceased has passed away, the system identifies the social media accounts that the person used.

[0901] Step 2: Automatically take appropriate action on the identified social media platforms. This includes deleting accounts and notifying them of deaths.

[0902] Step 3: Through these procedures, the burden on the bereaved family is reduced and the privacy of the deceased is protected.

[0903] (Example 1)

[0904] Next, we will describe Embodiment 1 of 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."

[0905] The procedures related to property succession are complex and time-consuming, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the successor. Furthermore, difficulties in information sharing among stakeholders and managing the progress of procedures lead to delays and errors. In addition, end-of-life planning support through social networking services is insufficient.

[0906] 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.

[0907] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex procedures and tasks related to property succession through the digitization and integration of an interactive information processing device; means for the information processing device to receive succession-related information and analyze it using natural language processing technology; means for automatically generating necessary procedures and documents based on the analysis results; means for electronically sending the generated documents to relevant organizations; and means for notifying the user of the progress of the procedures. This makes it possible to improve the efficiency and accuracy of property succession procedures, facilitate information sharing among stakeholders, and realize end-of-life support in social network services.

[0908] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that receives input from a user, analyzes it using natural language processing technology, and provides the necessary information.

[0909] "Property succession" refers to the procedure of transferring property and rights from the person who is to be succeeded to the person who will succeed.

[0910] "Digitization and integration" refers to the process of centrally managing procedures and tasks using digital technology to improve efficiency.

[0911] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the transfer of property, such as the person being transferred, the person being transferred, and public institutions.

[0912] "Natural language processing technology" is a technology that enables computers to understand and analyze human language.

[0913] "Automatic document generation" refers to the process where a computer automatically creates the necessary documents based on the analysis results.

[0914] "Social networking services" refer to platforms on the internet for people to share information and interact with each other.

[0915] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist individuals with preparations and procedures they undertake while they are still alive.

[0916] The embodiment of this invention is a system for streamlining property succession procedures and reducing the burden on those involved. This system uses an interactive information processing device to receive input from the user and performs analysis using natural language processing technology.

[0917] The server uses a cloud-based platform, specifically utilizing common cloud services. The server receives information about asset succession submitted by users and securely stores it in a database. The received information is then fed into a generative AI model. This model uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the information and identify necessary procedures and documents.

[0918] Users access the system via a terminal and input information related to asset succession. The terminal can be an internet-connected PC or smartphone. Users can monitor the progress of the procedures provided by the system in real time.

[0919] The server automatically generates the necessary documents based on the analysis results. These documents are generated using standard document creation software and output in formats such as PDF. The generated documents are then sent electronically to the relevant organizations via email or a dedicated online portal.

[0920] For example, if a user enters "My father has passed away, and I want to inherit his estate," the system will automatically generate the information necessary for creating an inheritance division agreement and filing inheritance tax returns.

[0921] Example of a prompt:

[0922] "My father has passed away, and I would like to inherit his estate. Please tell me what procedures and documents are necessary."

[0923] In this way, the system can streamline the property transfer process and reduce the burden on those involved.

[0924] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0925] Step 1:

[0926] Users input information regarding property succession through their device. This information includes the name of the deceased, date of death, type and value of the estate, and information about the successor. The device used is a computer or smartphone with an internet connection. The entered information is transmitted to a server.

[0927] Step 2:

[0928] The server receives information sent by the user and stores it in a database. The received information is then input into a generative AI model. The server uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the information. As a result of the analysis, necessary procedures and documents are identified.

[0929] Step 3:

[0930] The generation AI model automatically generates necessary procedures and documents based on the analysis results. Specifically, this includes documents such as inheritance division agreements and inheritance tax returns. The generated documents are output in PDF format, among others.

[0931] Step 4:

[0932] The server electronically sends the generated documents to the relevant organizations. This sending is done via email or a dedicated online portal. The recipients are organizations specified by the user or organizations automatically identified by the system.

[0933] Step 5:

[0934] The server notifies the user of the progress of the procedure. Notifications are sent via email or the system's messaging function. Users can check the completion of the procedure and requests for additional information in real time.

[0935] In this way, the system can streamline the property transfer process and reduce the burden on those involved.

[0936] (Application Example 1)

[0937] Next, we will describe Application Example 1 of Form 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."

[0938] Inheritance procedures involve numerous documents and processes, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing inheritance-related payments is complex, potentially leading to delays and errors. Addressing these challenges and streamlining inheritance procedures to reduce the burden is crucial.

[0939] 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.

[0940] This invention includes a server that provides means for simplifying and visualizing the complex procedures and tasks related to inheritance through the digitalization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for resolving the issues of various stakeholders such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments, and electronic transaction means for managing payments necessary for inheritance procedures and enabling users to easily make payments. This makes it possible to streamline inheritance procedures and reduce the burden on the user.

[0941] An "interactive information processing system" is a system that receives input from a user, analyzes it using natural language processing, and provides appropriate information and procedures.

[0942] "The complicated procedures related to inheritance" refers to the preparation of documents and application procedures required based on inheritance laws and regulations.

[0943] "Digitalization and centralization" refers to the electronic processing and unified management of traditional paper-based procedures and information.

[0944] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex procedures and information visually in an easy-to-understand way, making it easy for users to comprehend.

[0945] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the inheritance process, such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments.

[0946] "Electronic transaction methods" refer to systems and methods for conducting financial transactions via the internet.

[0947] A "payment plan" outlines a schedule and method for efficiently making the payments required for inheritance procedures.

[0948] "Related institutions" refers to public institutions and financial institutions that accept necessary documents and payments in inheritance procedures.

[0949] The embodiment of the invention is a system aimed at streamlining and reducing the burden of inheritance procedures. This system uses an interactive information processing device to receive inheritance-related information from the user and analyzes it through natural language processing. Based on the analyzed information, it automatically calculates the necessary procedures and payments and proposes a payment plan to the user.

[0950] The server is developed using Python, with the Flask framework used to build the backend. The frontend is developed using React to provide the user interface. OpenAI's GPT is used as the generative AI model to parse user input and calculate the necessary payment. For payment processing, the Stripe API is used to conduct electronic transactions with relevant institutions.

[0951] As a concrete example, when a user enters "I want to handle the inheritance procedures for my father's estate" into a smartphone app, the server receives this information and analyzes it using OpenAI's GPT model. Based on the analysis results, the server proposes a payment plan to the user, such as "You will need 100,000 yen for real estate registration fees and 200,000 yen for inheritance tax." The user can then confirm these payments within the app and complete the payment simply by pressing a button.

[0952] An example of a prompt for a generating AI model is, "Calculate the payments required for inheritance procedures. Input data: {user's inheritance information}." Using this prompt, the AI ​​can generate an appropriate payment plan based on the user's input information.

[0953] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0954] Step 1:

[0955] The user enters information related to inheritance using their smartphone. The entered information is then sent from the device to the server as data necessary for the inheritance procedure.

[0956] Step 2:

[0957] The server sends a prompt message to OpenAI's GPT, a generative AI model, to analyze the received user inheritance information. The prompt message is "Calculate the payments required for inheritance procedures. Input data: {user's inheritance information}". The server uses this prompt message to request data analysis from the AI ​​model.

[0958] Step 3:

[0959] The generating AI model calculates the necessary payment items and amounts based on the received prompt and the user's inheritance information. The AI ​​model considers inheritance-related laws and regulations to generate an appropriate payment plan. The generated payment plan is returned to the server.

[0960] Step 4:

[0961] The server analyzes the payment plan received from the AI ​​model and formats the data for presentation to the user. This formatted data includes payment items and amounts in a user-friendly format.

[0962] Step 5:

[0963] The terminal displays the payment plan received from the server to the user. The user reviews the presented payment plan and takes action to make the payment as needed.

[0964] Step 6:

[0965] When a user initiates a payment, the device sends the payment information to the server. The server uses the Stripe API to execute the electronic transaction with the relevant institutions. Once the payment is complete, the server notifies the device of the result.

[0966] Step 7:

[0967] The terminal displays a payment completion notification received from the server to the user. This allows the user to confirm that the payment required for the inheritance procedure has been completed.

[0968] (Example 2)

[0969] Next, we will describe Example 2 of the morphological example. 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."

[0970] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, the procedures for managing and deleting social media accounts are often cumbersome and cause considerable emotional distress to surviving family members. There is a need to simplify these procedures and alleviate this burden.

[0971] 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.

[0972] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and integration of an interactive information processing device; means for collecting information of the deceased and for the information processing device to acquire the information using communication means; means for the information processing device to process the information using communication means and identify the information; means for automating the information processing using communication means based on the information identified by the information processing device; and means for the information processing device to notify the results of the information processing. This makes it possible to simplify and reduce the burden of inheritance-related procedures and to automate the management and deletion of SNS accounts.

[0973] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[0974] The term "decedent" refers to a person who has passed away and whose property and rights are to be inherited.

[0975] An "heir" refers to a person who has the right to inherit the property and rights of the deceased.

[0976] "Public institutions" refer to public organizations such as the government and local authorities, and may be involved in inheritance-related procedures.

[0977] An "information processing device" is a device used for collecting, analyzing, and processing data, and is used for inheritance-related procedures and managing social media accounts.

[0978] "Communication means" refers to the means by which an information processing device exchanges information with external databases or services, and includes internet connectivity and APIs.

[0979] "Information processing" refers to a series of operations that involve analyzing collected data and performing necessary procedures.

[0980] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand manner, thereby aiding user comprehension.

[0981] "Automation" refers to the mechanical execution of procedures that would otherwise need to be done manually, with the aim of improving efficiency and reducing workload.

[0982] "Notification" refers to the act of informing a user of the results of information processing or the completion of a procedure, and is carried out via email or in-system messages.

[0983] The embodiment of this invention is a system for streamlining inheritance-related procedures and the management of social media accounts. This system operates through the cooperation of three parties: a server, a terminal, and a user.

[0984] The server first collects information about the deceased. Specifically, it retrieves information such as the deceased's name, email address, and phone number from the database. This information is extracted from the database using SQL queries. Next, the server uses the APIs of various social networking platforms to identify accounts based on the collected information. For example, it uses Facebook's Graph API or Twitter's API to search for the relevant account.

[0985] The terminal executes procedures on identified social networking service (SNS) accounts based on instructions from the server. Specifically, it sends requests to delete accounts or sends death notifications. These procedures are carried out through the APIs of each SNS. For example, for Facebook accounts, the Graph API is used to send deletion requests.

[0986] The user inputs prompts into the generating AI model, which then generates examples of specific procedures related to end-of-life support via social media. For example, by inputting the prompt, "Please tell me how to delete the deceased's Facebook account," the AI ​​model will generate specific procedural steps.

[0987] This system will simplify and reduce the burden of inheritance-related procedures, and automate the management and deletion of social media accounts.

[0988] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0989] Step 1:

[0990] The server collects information about the deceased. As input, it retrieves information such as the deceased's name, email address, and phone number from a database. Specifically, it extracts the necessary information from the database using SQL queries. The output provides basic information about the deceased. This information is used to identify subsequent social media accounts.

[0991] Step 2:

[0992] The server identifies the social media accounts. The information of the deceased obtained in Step 1 is used as input. The server uses the APIs of each social media platform to identify the accounts. Specifically, it uses Facebook's Graph API and Twitter's API to search for the relevant accounts. The output is the social media account information of the deceased.

[0993] Step 3:

[0994] The server automates the process. It uses the SNS account information identified in step 2 as input. The server automatically executes pre-configured procedures for the identified account. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests and death notifications. These procedures are performed through the API of each SNS. The output provides the completion status of the procedures.

[0995] Step 4:

[0996] The server notifies the user of the result. The completion status of the procedure obtained in step 3 is used as input. The server notifies the user that the procedure is complete. Specifically, this is done by sending an email using the SMTP protocol or by utilizing the system's notification function. A notification of procedure completion is sent to the user as output.

[0997] (Application Example 2)

[0998] Next, we will describe application example 2 of form 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."

[0999] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, in the management of information processing device accounts, if proper procedures are not followed after a user's death, there is a risk of privacy violations and misuse. Solving these challenges, reducing the burden on users, and protecting privacy are essential.

[1000] 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.

[1001] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device; means for securely storing user-registered account information of the information processing device and automatically executing pre-configured procedures when the user's death is confirmed; and means for deleting accounts and sending notifications using the communication means of the information processing device and the communication protocol of each information processing device. This enables more efficient inheritance-related procedures and proper management of the user's information processing device.

[1002] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[1003] The term "decedent" refers to an individual who has died leaving behind property.

[1004] An "heir" refers to an individual or organization that has the right to inherit the property of the deceased.

[1005] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a specific region.

[1006] An "interested party" refers to an individual or group that has an interest in a particular event or project.

[1007] An "information processing device" is an electronic device used to process data and perform specific functions.

[1008] "Communication methods" refer to the technologies and protocols used to send and receive information.

[1009] A "communication protocol" is a protocol that defines the rules and procedures for exchanging data between information processing devices.

[1010] "Account deletion" is the operation that erases user information registered on the information processing device.

[1011] "Notification" refers to a message or alert used to inform others of specific information.

[1012] The system for realizing this invention includes a server, a user terminal, and communication means for an information processing device. The server receives inheritance-related information provided by the user and digitizes and aggregates this information through an interactive information processing device. This simplifies and visualizes inheritance procedures.

[1013] The server securely stores the account information of the information processing device registered by the user. If the user's death is confirmed, the server automatically executes pre-configured procedures. This process includes deleting the account and sending notifications using the communication means of the information processing device, in accordance with the communication protocols of each device.

[1014] Specifically, the server receives input from user devices such as smartphones and computers and stores account information in a database (e.g., Firebase). When a user's death is confirmed, the server uses social media APIs (e.g., Facebook API, Twitter API) to send an account deletion request and notifies the user if necessary.

[1015] In implementing this system, it is also possible to use a generative AI model to analyze user input and suggest appropriate procedures. For example, if a user has registered Facebook and Twitter accounts, the server will use the Facebook API to send an account deletion request and the Twitter API to send a death notification to followers.

[1016] An example of a prompt message is: "Create a program that uses the APIs of each social networking service to delete accounts and send notifications when a user's death is confirmed, based on the social networking service account information registered by the user."

[1017] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[1018] Step 1:

[1019] The user uses a device to enter inheritance-related information and social media account information. The device sends this information to the server. The entered data includes the user's personal information, social media account login information, and documents required for inheritance procedures. The server stores the received data in a database.

[1020] Step 2:

[1021] The server uses a generative AI model to analyze inheritance-related information provided by the user. The user's inheritance information is used as input data. Based on the analysis results, the server generates suggestions for simplifying and visualizing inheritance procedures. The output is a set of procedural suggestions for the user.

[1022] Step 3:

[1023] If a user's death is confirmed, the server automatically executes pre-configured procedures. The user's death confirmation information is used as input. The server uses the SNS API to send account deletion requests to each SNS and sends notifications as needed. The output includes confirmation of account deletion and notification sending.

[1024] Step 4:

[1025] The server uses the communication means of the information processing device to delete accounts and send notifications in accordance with the communication protocol of each information processing device. Access information from the SNS API is used as input. The server accesses SNS using the API key and sends an account deletion request. The output is a deletion completion notification from SNS.

[1026] Step 5:

[1027] The server notifies the user of the progress of the inheritance procedures and SNS account management. The results of each processing step are used as input. The server sends a notification to the user's terminal reporting the completion status of the procedures. The output is a notification sent to the user.

[1028] (Example 3)

[1029] Next, we will describe Embodiment 3 of Embodiment Example 3. 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."

[1030] The procedures involved in inheriting property are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the inheritors. Furthermore, managing user accounts on social networking services also poses a considerable emotional burden for surviving family members. There is a need to address these challenges and simplify procedures to reduce the burden on individuals.

[1031] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[1032] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and integrating property succession procedures through an interactive information processing device, means for inputting information of the inheritor, and means for identifying user accounts of social network services via a communication network and automatically executing related procedures. This makes it possible to simplify property succession procedures and reduce the burden of managing user accounts in social network services.

[1033] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through interaction with the user and digitizes and integrates necessary procedures and tasks.

[1034] "Procedures related to property transfer" refers to all legal and administrative procedures required when transferring property from the deceased to the successor.

[1035] "Digitization and integration" refers to the process of unifying traditional paper-based or individual procedures using digital technology, and managing and executing them efficiently.

[1036] The term "inheritor" refers to an individual who is in a position to pass on property or rights to another person.

[1037] The term "heir" refers to an individual or organization that is in a position to inherit property or rights from the person being inherited.

[1038] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a region, and may be involved in procedures related to property inheritance.

[1039] "Interested parties" refer to individuals or organizations that are directly or indirectly affected in the inheritance of property.

[1040] A "communication network" is the infrastructure used to send and receive information, and includes the internet and dedicated lines.

[1041] "Social networking services" refer to online platforms that allow people to share information and interact via the internet.

[1042] A "user account" refers to the identification information necessary for an individual to use a social networking service.

[1043] "To execute automatically" means that the system completes the procedure independently, without requiring human intervention.

[1044] "Notification" refers to a means of informing relevant parties of specific information, including email and in-app notifications.

[1045] The embodiments for carrying out this invention are as follows:

[1046] The user uses a terminal to enter the inheritor's basic information. This information includes name, date of birth, and types of social networking services used. The terminal then sends this information to the server.

[1047] The server uses the received information about the inherited person to perform a search to identify user accounts on social networking services. The server uses a Python script to access the APIs of each social networking service and search for the relevant accounts. Specifically, it uses the Facebook and Twitter APIs to search for accounts using name and date of birth.

[1048] The server automatically performs the necessary procedures for identified user accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests using the Facebook API and death notifications via the Twitter API. This automatically deletes the accounts and sends notifications.

[1049] The server notifies the user when the procedure is complete. The server informs the user of the completion status via email or in-app notification. This allows the user to confirm that the procedure was completed successfully.

[1050] For example, if a user enters "The name of the person to be inherited is Taro Yamada, the date of birth is January 1, 1980, and the social media platforms used are Facebook and Twitter" on their device, the server will use the Facebook API to search for the account of "Taro Yamada" and send a deletion request. Similarly, it will use the Twitter API to send a death notification.

[1051] An example of a prompt to be input to the generating AI model is, "Generate a program that identifies the inherited user's SNS account and performs deletion or notification procedures." This prompt prompt causes the AI ​​model to generate the necessary program code. The process flow in Example 3 is explained using Figure 15.

[1052] Step 1:

[1053] The user uses a terminal to enter the basic information of the person to be inherited. This information includes name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services used. This information is sent from the terminal to the server. The server stores the received information in a database and prepares it for subsequent processing.

[1054] Step 2:

[1055] The server performs a search to identify user accounts on social networking services based on the stored information of the inherited person. The server uses a Python script to access the API of each social networking service and search for the relevant account. The input is the name and date of birth of the inherited person, and the output is the ID of the identified account and related information.

[1056] Step 3:

[1057] The server automatically performs the necessary procedures for identified user accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests using the Facebook API and death notifications via the Twitter API. The input is the ID of the identified account, and the output is the result of the procedures. The server executes these procedures asynchronously to improve processing efficiency.

[1058] Step 4:

[1059] The server notifies the user when the procedure is complete. The server informs the user of the procedure's completion status via email or in-app notifications. The input is the result of the procedure's execution, and the output is a notification message sent to the user. This allows the user to confirm that the procedure was completed successfully.

[1060] (Application Example 3)

[1061] Next, we will describe application example 3 of form example 3. 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."

[1062] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing accounts for information exchange services requires appropriate handling upon a user's death, and performing this manually places a considerable emotional burden on surviving family members. There is a need to address these challenges, simplify procedures, and protect privacy.

[1063] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[1064] This invention includes a server that provides means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for resolving issues for various stakeholders such as the deceased, heirs, and local governments, and means for managing user-registered account information for information exchange services, and automatically contacting each information exchange platform upon the user's death to delete or commemorate the account. This reduces the burden of inheritance-related procedures and enables appropriate account management in information exchange services.

[1065] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[1066] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal and administrative procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's assets and rights to the heirs.

[1067] "Digitization and centralization" refers to the process of streamlining traditional paper-based or individual procedures by using digital technology for unified management.

[1068] "Visualization" refers to making complex information or procedures easier to understand by displaying them visually in an easy-to-understand manner.

[1069] "Interested parties" refer to those involved in the inheritance, such as the deceased, the heirs, and local governments.

[1070] An "information exchange service" is an online platform for users to share and interact with each other.

[1071] "Account information" refers to personal information and authentication information registered by users in an information exchange service.

[1072] "Memorialization" refers to changing a user's account to a special state after their death, providing features to commemorate the deceased.

[1073] To implement this invention, it is necessary to construct a system in which a server and a user's terminal work in cooperation. The server uses an interactive information processing device to receive input from the user and handle inheritance-related procedures and account management for information exchange services. Specifically, the server securely stores the user's registered account information for information exchange services and automatically notifies each information exchange platform when the user's death is confirmed. This enables the deletion of accounts and memorialization procedures to be carried out.

[1074] The server uses APIs for information exchange services (e.g., Facebook Graph API and Twitter API) to send requests for managing, deleting, and commemorating account information. The user's device is a smartphone or personal computer, and it provides an interface for users to register their account information while they are still alive.

[1075] For example, if a user has registered both Facebook and Twitter accounts, upon confirmation of the user's death, the server will use the Facebook Graph API to commemorate the account and the Twitter API to delete the account. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and protects their privacy.

[1076] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to automatically generate appropriate procedures based on user input. An example of a prompt message is: "Please provide instructions for developing an application that automatically deletes or commemorates a user's registered information exchange service account when their death is confirmed."

[1077] The flow of the specific processing in Application Example 3 will be explained using Figure 16.

[1078] Step 1:

[1079] Users register their account information for information exchange services using a terminal. As input, users provide account IDs and authentication information for each service. The terminal encrypts this information and sends it to the server. As output, the server securely stores the encrypted account information.

[1080] Step 2:

[1081] The server periodically checks for user survival. It takes data about the user's survival status as input. The server uses a generative AI model to generate prompt messages to determine the user's survival status and compares them with external databases and public records. As output, it updates the user's survival or death status.

[1082] Step 3:

[1083] If a user's death is confirmed, the server uses the APIs of registered information exchange services to send requests for account deletion or memorialization. The server uses the user's death status and account information as input. The server generates and sends requests in a format appropriate for each service's API. The server receives responses from each service as output and confirms the completion of the process.

[1084] Step 4:

[1085] The server notifies the bereaved family of the processing results. As input, the server uses responses and processing status from each service. The server sends emails or messages to the bereaved family to inform them that the account deletion or memorialization is complete. As output, the notification to the bereaved family is complete.

[1086] 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.

[1087] "Example of form 1"

[1088] One embodiment of this system is a conversational AI system incorporating an emotion engine. This system analyzes the user's emotions from their tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice, and responds accordingly. For example, if the system senses that the user is confused, it provides more detailed explanations and guidance. If the system senses that the user is angry, it offers an apology and attempts to resolve the problem.

[1089] "Example of form 2"

[1090] Another embodiment involves a system that uses an emotion engine to adjust suggestions for inheritance-related procedures and tasks. This system recognizes the user's emotions and adjusts the suggested procedures and tasks accordingly. For example, if the system determines that the user is feeling stressed, it will suggest simplifying the procedure or resuming it later. This reduces the user's stress and provides a better experience.

[1091] "Example of form 3"

[1092] Another embodiment involves a system that uses an emotion engine to adjust end-of-life planning support suggestions on social media. This system recognizes the user's emotions and adjusts the end-of-life planning support suggestions accordingly. For example, if the system determines that the user is feeling sad, it will suggest end-of-life planning support on social media at an appropriate time. This provides appropriate end-of-life planning support that takes the user's emotions into consideration.

[1093] The following describes the processing flow for each example of the form.

[1094] "Example of form 1"

[1095] Step 1: Begin interaction with the user. During this interaction, collect information such as the user's tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[1096] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[1097] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, respond in a way that matches the user's emotions. For example, if you sense that the user is confused, provide a detailed explanation; if you sense that the user is angry, offer an apology.

[1098] "Example of form 2"

[1099] Step 1: Begin a conversation with the user and gather information about inheritance-related procedures and tasks. At this time, also collect the user's tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[1100] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[1101] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, adjust the suggested procedures and tasks according to the user's emotions. For example, if it is determined that the user is feeling stressed, simplify the procedure or suggest resuming it later.

[1102] "Example of form 3"

[1103] Step 1: Begin conversations with users and gather information about end-of-life planning support on social media. At this time, also collect information about the users' tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice.

[1104] Step 2: Based on the collected information, the emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions.

[1105] Step 3: Based on the analysis results, adjust the end-of-life support suggestions on social media according to the user's emotions. For example, if it is determined that the user is feeling sad, suggest end-of-life support on social media at an appropriate time.

[1106] (Example 1)

[1107] Next, we will describe Embodiment 1 of 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."

[1108] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and often place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, the emotional stress involved can delay the process. End-of-life planning support through information-sharing services is also a crucial issue. It is necessary to address these challenges and simplify procedures while reducing the burden on heirs.

[1109] 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.

[1110] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through the digitization and centralization of an interactive information processing device, means for analyzing input information and automatically generating necessary procedures and tasks, and means for analyzing voice and facial expressions and responding according to the user's emotions. This reduces the burden of inheritance procedures, alleviates emotional stress, and enables efficient procedure progress.

[1111] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and supports necessary procedures and tasks.

[1112] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's assets to the heirs.

[1113] "Digitization and centralization" refers to converting traditional paper-based procedures into a digital format and managing them centrally.

[1114] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand manner.

[1115] "Interested parties" refer to all parties involved in the inheritance process, specifically the deceased, the heirs, and public institutions.

[1116] "Information analysis" is the process of analyzing input data to identify necessary procedures and tasks.

[1117] "Emotional analysis" is a technology that analyzes a user's voice and facial expressions to determine their emotional state.

[1118] An "information sharing service" refers to a platform for sharing information with others via the internet.

[1119] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist individuals with preparations and procedures they undertake while they are still alive.

[1120] This invention is an interactive information processing system designed to streamline inheritance-related procedures and reduce the burden on users. The system automates procedures by facilitating information exchange between a server, a terminal, and the user.

[1121] The server uses a cloud-based server equipped with a high-performance processor and sufficient memory. The server analyzes inheritance-related information entered by users using a generative AI model. Specifically, it leverages natural language processing techniques to identify necessary procedures and relevant laws from the input information. A general-purpose natural language processing model is used as the generative AI model.

[1122] The terminal provides an interface for the user to input information. Through the terminal, the user enters information such as the deceased's name, date of death, and information about the heirs. The terminal then sends this information to the server.

[1123] The server generates a list of necessary procedures based on the analysis results and automatically creates the required documents. These documents are stored electronically and sent to the relevant authorities as needed. Furthermore, the server uses speech recognition and facial recognition software to analyze the user's emotions. If the user is confused, the server provides detailed explanations and additional guidance. If the user is angry, the server apologizes and outlines specific steps for resolving the problem.

[1124] For example, if a user enters into the terminal "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process, but I don't know what to do," the server analyzes this information and generates a list of necessary procedures and documents. The server provides the generated information to the user and sends the necessary documents to the relevant organizations.

[1125] Examples of prompt messages include the following:

[1126] "Please tell me what documents are required for inheritance procedures."

[1127] "Please explain the procedure when there are multiple heirs."

[1128] "Please explain in detail how inheritance tax is calculated."

[1129] In this way, the system not only analyzes user input and automatically generates necessary procedures and documents, but also reduces the burden of inheritance procedures by responding in accordance with the user's emotions.

[1130] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 17.

[1131] Step 1:

[1132] The user uses a terminal to input information related to inheritance. Specifically, they input the deceased's name, date of death, and information about the heirs. The terminal sends this information to the server. The entered information is used as data for analysis on the server.

[1133] Step 2:

[1134] The server analyzes the received information using a generative AI model. The generative AI model utilizes natural language processing technology to identify necessary procedures and relevant laws from the input information. Specifically, it analyzes the input text data and extracts the steps required for inheritance procedures. As a result of the analysis, a list of necessary procedures is generated.

[1135] Step 3:

[1136] Based on the analysis results, the server generates a list of necessary procedures. These may include, for example, the creation of an inheritance division agreement and the filing of inheritance tax returns. The server then presents these procedures to the user. The output provides a list of the procedures the user must perform.

[1137] Step 4:

[1138] The server automatically creates the necessary documents. Specifically, it generates documents such as inheritance division agreements and inheritance tax returns based on templates. The generated documents are stored electronically and sent to the relevant institutions as needed. The completed documents are then output.

[1139] Step 5:

[1140] The server analyzes the user's tone of voice and facial expressions using an emotion engine. When the user provides voice input, speech recognition software is used to analyze the tone of voice. Facial expression recognition software is used to read the user's emotions from their facial expressions. The user's voice data and video data are used as input, and the user's emotional state is determined as output.

[1141] Step 6:

[1142] Based on the sentiment analysis results, the server takes appropriate action for the user. If it determines that the user is confused, the server provides detailed explanations and additional guidance. If it determines that the user is angry, the server apologizes and provides specific steps for resolving the problem. The output provides the appropriate response for the user.

[1143] (Application Example 1)

[1144] Next, we will describe Application Example 1 of Form 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."

[1145] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, they involve emotional stress, highlighting the need for streamlined procedures and emotional support. Additionally, the payment of associated fees is cumbersome, necessitating a unified system to address these issues.

[1146] 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.

[1147] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for analyzing the user's emotions using an emotion analysis device and providing appropriate responses, and means for streamlining fee payments by incorporating an electronic payment function. This enables efficient inheritance procedures, emotional support for users, and simplification of fee payments.

[1148] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[1149] The term "decedent" refers to a person who has died leaving behind property.

[1150] An "heir" refers to a person who has the right to inherit the property of the deceased.

[1151] A "local government" is a public institution responsible for the administration of a region, and in inheritance procedures, it issues necessary documents and provides support for the procedures.

[1152] "Interested parties" refer to individuals or organizations that are directly or indirectly affected in the inheritance process.

[1153] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes a user's emotions based on their tone of voice, facial expressions, and word choice, and then responds appropriately.

[1154] "Electronic payment functionality" refers to a feature that enables online monetary transactions and is used to streamline the payment of fees.

[1155] An "information sharing network" is an online platform for users to share information, and in the context of end-of-life planning support, it is used as a place to delete accounts or notify others of death.

[1156] The system for implementing this invention consists of an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, a server equipped with electronic payment functionality, and a terminal used by the user. The server receives inheritance-related information from the user, analyzes that information using the interactive information processing device, and automatically generates the necessary procedures and documents. Furthermore, it analyzes the user's emotions using the emotion analysis device and takes appropriate action. For example, if the user is confused, the server provides detailed guidance, and if the user is angry, it apologizes and works to resolve the problem.

[1157] Furthermore, the server streamlines fee payments through electronic payment functionality. Users can input the necessary information for inheritance procedures via a terminal and proceed with the process following guidance provided by the server. This streamlines inheritance procedures, provides emotional support to users, and simplifies fee payments.

[1158] For example, when a user enters "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process" into the terminal, the server analyzes the information and generates the necessary procedures and documents. Furthermore, an emotion analysis device analyzes the user's emotions and provides appropriate support. An example of a prompt would be, "My father has passed away, and I want to start the inheritance process. Please tell me what procedures and documents I need."

[1159] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 18.

[1160] Step 1:

[1161] The user enters inheritance-related information via their device. This information includes the deceased's name, the relationship of the heir, and the type of property. The device then transmits this information to the server.

[1162] Step 2:

[1163] The server analyzes the received information using an interactive information processing device. During the analysis process, a generative AI model is used to identify the necessary procedures and documents. As output, a list of procedures and templates for the required documents are generated.

[1164] Step 3:

[1165] The server uses an emotion analyzer to analyze the user's emotions from their input. This input includes the user's tone of voice and word choice. Based on the analysis results, if the user is confused, the server outputs detailed guidance; if the user is angry, it outputs an apology and a suggestion for resolving the problem.

[1166] Step 4:

[1167] The server processes the payment of fees through its electronic payment function. Once the user enters their payment information, the server processes the payment via the payment gateway. The user is then notified of the payment completion.

[1168] Step 5:

[1169] The server sends a list of generated procedures and required documents to the user's terminal. The user can review this information on their terminal and proceed with the procedures according to the instructions. The progress of the procedures is displayed to the user as output.

[1170] (Example 2)

[1171] Next, we will describe Example 2 of the morphological example. 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."

[1172] The procedures involved in asset transfer are complex, placing a significant burden on both the transferor and the transferee. Furthermore, account management on social networking services is cumbersome, and privacy protection is sometimes inadequate. Additionally, there is a lack of measures to alleviate the stress users experience during the process. Addressing these challenges is essential.

[1173] 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.

[1174] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and integrating asset succession-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for recognizing the user's emotions using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggested procedures and tasks accordingly, and means for providing end-of-life support through social network services using an information and communication device. This makes it possible to simplify procedures and reduce the burden of asset succession, protect privacy, and reduce user stress.

[1175] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates procedures and tasks related to asset succession.

[1176] "Asset succession" refers to the entire process of transferring property and rights from the person being succeeded to the person succeeding.

[1177] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes the user's input information and recognizes their emotional state.

[1178] An "information and communication device" is a device used to send and receive data via a network and to perform operations related to social network services.

[1179] "Social networking services" refer to platforms on the internet for people to interact and share information.

[1180] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist users in making preparations for what happens after their death, and this particularly includes managing and deleting digital assets.

[1181] One embodiment of this invention is a system for efficiently carrying out procedures and tasks related to asset succession. This system consists of an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, and an information communication device.

[1182] The server prompts the user to input information about the successor through an interactive information processing device. This information includes the successor's name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services they use. Based on this information, the server identifies relevant account information from the database. A general database management system can be used for database management.

[1183] The terminal uses an emotion analysis device to analyze the user's input text. The emotion analysis utilizes a natural language processing library to determine whether the user is experiencing stress. This allows for the suggestion of procedures tailored to the user's emotional state.

[1184] Information and communication devices utilize the APIs of specific social networking services to delete or notify users of the account's death. For example, a request to delete an account can be sent using the API of a particular service.

[1185] For example, if a user enters "I want to delete my father's account," the server retrieves the father's account information from the database and sends a deletion request via the information and communication device. The terminal analyzes the user's emotions and, if it determines that the user is feeling stressed, makes a suggestion such as "Would you like to simplify the process?"

[1186] An example of a prompt to input into the generating AI model is: "Generate a system to streamline asset succession procedures. Include a function that uses sentiment analysis to adjust the suggested procedures."

[1187] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 19.

[1188] Step 1:

[1189] The user enters information about the person to be succeeded. Specifically, they enter the person's name, date of birth, and the types of social networking services they use. This information serves as basic data for the server to identify the relevant account information from the database. The entered information is used as parameters to send queries to the database.

[1190] Step 2:

[1191] The server uses the information received from the user to search the database for the account information of the successor's social networking services. Using the database management system, it executes an SQL query to retrieve the relevant account information. The output provides the identified account information. This information is used in the next step.

[1192] Step 3:

[1193] The server uses the identified account information to access the APIs of various social networking services. Specifically, it sends requests for account deletion and death notifications. For example, it uses the API of a particular service to send a deletion request and receives a success or failure status. The output includes the response status from each service.

[1194] Step 4:

[1195] The terminal uses an emotion analysis device to analyze the user's input text. It uses a natural language processing library to determine the user's emotional state. It receives user text data as input and outputs an emotional state (e.g., whether the user is feeling stressed). This result is used in the next step.

[1196] Step 5:

[1197] The device makes procedural suggestions to the user based on the results of sentiment analysis. Specifically, if it determines that the user is experiencing stress, it will display a suggestion such as, "Would you like to simplify the procedure?". It receives the results of sentiment analysis as input and generates a suggestion message for the user as output.

[1198] (Application Example 2)

[1199] Next, we will describe application example 2 of form 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."

[1200] Inheritance-related procedures are complex and place a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, managing accounts on social networking services and providing end-of-life planning support are also important issues. Additionally, there is a need to propose appropriate procedures tailored to the emotional state of the user. It is essential to address these challenges, reduce the burden on users, and protect their privacy.

[1201] 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.

[1202] In this invention, the server includes means for digitizing and centralizing inheritance-related procedures and tasks through an interactive information processing device, means for adjusting inheritance procedure suggestions according to the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device, and means for managing accounts for social network services via an information and communication network, and for automatically deleting accounts and sending death notifications upon the user's death. This makes it possible to simplify inheritance-related procedures, reduce the burden on users, and protect their privacy.

[1203] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and centralizes inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[1204] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that analyzes a user's emotional state and, based on the results, proposes appropriate inheritance procedures.

[1205] An "information and communication network" is a network for sending and receiving data, and it enables account management for social network services.

[1206] A "social networking service" is a platform for users to interact with others online, and it requires account management and end-of-life planning support.

[1207] "Account deletion" is the procedure for erasing a user's account on social networking services upon their death.

[1208] A "death notification" is the procedure for informing relevant parties of a user's death via social networking services.

[1209] A system for carrying out this invention comprises a server, user terminals, and an information and communication network. The server includes an interactive information processing device, an emotion analysis device, and a function for managing accounts for social network services via the information and communication network.

[1210] The server processes inheritance-related information received from user terminals, digitizing and centralizing it. This allows users to simplify and visualize inheritance procedures. The emotion analysis device analyzes the user's emotional state and, based on the results, suggests appropriate inheritance procedures. For example, if the user is experiencing stress, it can suggest simplifying the procedures.

[1211] Furthermore, the server manages accounts for social networking services via the information and communication network, and automatically deletes accounts and sends death notifications upon a user's death. This protects user privacy and reduces the burden on surviving family members.

[1212] For example, if a user registers both Facebook and Twitter accounts, the server uses the Facebook Graph API to delete the accounts and the Twitter API to send death notifications to followers. For sentiment analysis, the Google Cloud Natural Language API is used to analyze the user's emotions and provide appropriate suggestions.

[1213] By using a generative AI model, it is possible to generate prompt messages that correspond to the user's emotional state. An example of a prompt message is, "Analyze the user's emotional state and, if they are feeling stressed, suggest ways to simplify the procedure."

[1214] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 20.

[1215] Step 1:

[1216] The user terminal transmits inheritance-related information and social networking service account information to the server. The input is information registered by the user, and the output is data transmission to the server. The user terminal converts the input information into an appropriate format and sends it to the server.

[1217] Step 2:

[1218] The server processes received inheritance-related information using an interactive information processing device, digitizing and aggregating it. Input is inheritance information sent from user terminals, and output is digitized inheritance procedure information. The server stores the information in a database and, as needed, visualizes the progress of the procedures.

[1219] Step 3:

[1220] The server analyzes the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device. The input is the user's inheritance-related behavioral data, and the output is the analyzed emotional state. The server uses the Google Cloud Natural Language API to perform emotion analysis and evaluate the user's stress level.

[1221] Step 4:

[1222] The server uses a generative AI model to create inheritance procedure proposals based on the analyzed emotional state. The input is the result of the emotional analysis, and the output is the proposal presented to the user. The server inputs prompt sentences into the generative AI model and performs the operation of generating appropriate proposals.

[1223] Step 5:

[1224] The server manages accounts for social networking services via the information and communication network, and automatically deletes accounts and sends death notifications upon a user's death. The input is the user's death information, and the output is the result of the account deletion or notification. The server uses the Facebook Graph API and Twitter API to perform account operations.

[1225] (Example 3)

[1226] Next, we will describe Embodiment 3 of Embodiment Example 3. 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."

[1227] The procedures for inheriting assets are complex and place a significant burden on those involved. Furthermore, account management for information exchange devices is often inadequate after the death of the inheritor, highlighting the need for privacy protection and reduced burden on surviving family members. Additionally, there is a lack of appropriate support that considers the feelings of users, necessitating flexible responses that are sensitive to their emotions.

[1228] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[1229] In this invention, the server includes means for simplifying and visualizing complex procedures and tasks related to property inheritance through the informatization and integration of information via an interactive information processing device; means for recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly; and means for identifying the account of the information exchange device based on the inheritor's information using the information processing device and automatically performing appropriate procedures. This enables simplification and efficiency of property inheritance procedures, appropriate management of the information exchange device, and flexible support tailored to the user's emotions.

[1230] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user, and simplifies and visualizes procedures and tasks related to property inheritance.

[1231] "Property transfer" refers to the entire process of transferring property and rights from the deceased to the successor.

[1232] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that recognizes the emotional state of a user and makes appropriate suggestions based on that information.

[1233] An "information exchange device" is a device used by users to send and receive information, and generally includes accounts for social media and email.

[1234] A "generative information processing model" refers to algorithms and programs that generate suggestions tailored to the user's emotions and circumstances.

[1235] "Informatization and integration" refers to processing procedures and tasks as digital data and managing them centrally.

[1236] "Visualization" refers to displaying complex information or procedures in a visually easy-to-understand format.

[1237] "Automated means" refers to functions that allow the system to independently execute procedures without requiring manual intervention.

[1238] A description of embodiments for carrying out this invention will be given.

[1239] The server generates a program that digitizes and integrates procedures and tasks related to property inheritance through an interactive information processing device. This program has the function of recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly. It also includes a function that uses the information processing device to identify the account of the information exchange device based on the inheritor's information and automatically perform the appropriate procedures.

[1240] Specifically, the server uses emotion analysis software called "EmotionAPI" to analyze text and voice data entered by the user through the device. This allows the server to understand the user's emotional state in real time and offer end-of-life support suggestions at the appropriate time. Furthermore, the server uses the API of the information exchange device to retrieve the account information of the person to be inherited and automate procedures such as deletion and notification.

[1241] For example, if a user enters "My father has passed away" into their device, the server sends this text to the "EmotionAPI" and determines that the user is feeling sad. The server then identifies the deceased's social media accounts and initiates the deletion process. Finally, the server displays a message to the user such as, "We have assisted with the end-of-life planning of your social media accounts. Is there anything else we can help you with?"

[1242] An example of a prompt message might be, "Generate appropriate SNS end-of-life support suggestions when the user is feeling sad." This allows the generation AI model to generate suggestions that respond to the user's emotions. The specific processing flow in Example 3 will be explained using Figure 21.

[1243] Step 1:

[1244] Users input emotional information through their devices. Specifically, they input data expressing their emotions, such as "My father has passed away," in text or voice. This input data is sent to the server.

[1245] Step 2:

[1246] The server sends the received user input data to the "EmotionAPI" for emotion analysis. Based on the input data, the EmotionAPI analyzes the user's emotional state and outputs emotion labels such as sadness or joy. This output indicates what emotions the user is currently experiencing.

[1247] Step 3:

[1248] Based on the results of the emotion analysis, the server uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate prompt messages. For example, if the user is feeling sad, it might generate a prompt message such as, "Would you like to receive end-of-life planning support via social media?" This prompt message is designed to provide suggestions tailored to the user's emotions.

[1249] Step 4:

[1250] The server identifies the SNS account using the information exchange device's API based on the inheritor's information. Specifically, it uses the inheritor's name and email address to retrieve account information through the SNS's API. The output of this step is the identified account information.

[1251] Step 5:

[1252] The server automatically performs deletion and death notification procedures for identified social media accounts. Specifically, it sends account deletion requests via the social media API and, if necessary, sends death notification messages. The output of this step indicates the completion of account deletion or notification.

[1253] Step 6:

[1254] The server sends the generated prompt to the terminal and displays it to the user. The user can review the suggestion on the terminal and select the next action as needed. The output of this step is a display of the suggestion to the user.

[1255] (Application Example 3)

[1256] Next, we will describe application example 3 of form example 3. 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."

[1257] In modern society, inheritance procedures are extremely complex, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the heirs. Furthermore, while managing accounts for information exchange services requires appropriate handling upon a user's death, doing so manually places a heavy emotional burden on surviving family members. Moreover, there is a lack of timely support that takes into account the emotional state of users, highlighting the need to address these challenges.

[1258] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 3 is realized by the following means.

[1259] This invention includes a server that, through an interactive information processing device, simplifies and visualizes complex inheritance-related procedures and tasks through informatization and integration; a means for recognizing the user's emotional state using an emotion analysis device and adjusting the suggestions of the information processing device accordingly; and a means for managing the user's registered account information for the information exchange service using the information processing device, and for automatically deleting the account and notifying the user of their death upon their passing. This enables the simplification of inheritance-related procedures and provides end-of-life support through the information exchange service at an appropriate time, taking into consideration the user's emotions.

[1260] An "interactive information processing device" is a device that processes information through dialogue with the user and digitizes and integrates inheritance-related procedures and tasks.

[1261] An "emotion analysis device" is a device that recognizes a user's emotional state and makes appropriate suggestions based on that information.

[1262] An "information processing device" is a device that manages account information for information exchange services registered by users and automatically deletes accounts or sends death notifications as needed.

[1263] An "information exchange service" is an online platform used by users to exchange information with others.

[1264] "Inheritance-related procedures" refer to the legal and administrative procedures necessary to transfer the deceased's property and rights to the heirs.

[1265] "End-of-life support" refers to support activities that involve managing and deleting accounts for information exchange services and notifying others of the death of a user.

[1266] The system for carrying out this invention includes a server, a user terminal, and an emotion analysis device. The server functions as an interactive information processing device, receiving input from the user and digitizing and integrating inheritance-related procedures and tasks. This allows the user to simplify complex procedures and proceed efficiently based on visualized information.

[1267] The emotion analysis device recognizes the user's emotional state in real time and sends that data to a server. Based on this data, the server makes suggestions at the appropriate time according to the user's emotions. For example, if the server determines that the user is feeling sad, it will display a message such as, "This may be a difficult time for you, but we can help you with managing your information exchange service account. Please let us know when you are ready."

[1268] The information processing device manages account information for information exchange services registered by users. Upon a user's death, the server automatically deletes the account and notifies the deceased. This reduces the burden on surviving family members and protects privacy.

[1269] This system is programmed using Python and utilizes the Google Cloud Natural Language API for sentiment analysis. Account management for information exchange services uses the APIs of each service (e.g., Facebook Graph API, Twitter API).

[1270] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to analyze the user's emotional state and propose appropriate end-of-life support. An example of a prompt would be, "Please tell me how to analyze the user's emotional state and propose appropriate end-of-life support."

[1271] The flow of the specific processing in Application Example 3 will be explained using Figure 22.

[1272] Step 1:

[1273] The user inputs inheritance-related procedural information via a terminal. The terminal sends this information to a server. The server stores the received information in a database and performs data processing and integration. This makes the progress of the procedure visible.

[1274] Step 2:

[1275] The emotion analysis device monitors the user's emotional state in real time. It receives the user's voice and text data as input and performs emotion analysis using the Google Cloud Natural Language API. The analysis results are sent to the server, where the user's emotional state is recognized.

[1276] Step 3:

[1277] The server generates appropriate suggestions based on data from the emotion analysis device, tailored to the user's emotions and timing. Using a generative AI model, it creates prompt messages that match the user's emotional state and displays them on the terminal. For example, if the user is feeling sad, the server might generate a message such as, "This may be a difficult time for you, but we can help you with managing your information exchange service account."

[1278] Step 4:

[1279] The user enters instructions into a terminal to manage their account information for the information exchange service. The terminal sends these instructions to the server. The server uses the API of each information exchange service to retrieve the user's account information and automatically deletes accounts or notifies users of their death as needed.

[1280] Step 5:

[1281] The server sends the processing results to the terminal and notifies the user. This allows the user to check the completion status of the procedure and the results of account management.

[1282] (Other examples)

[1283] Since this is the same as the specific processing described in the other embodiments of the first embodiment above, the explanation will be omitted.

[1284] 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.

[1285] The data generation model 58 is a form of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). One example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search).<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> Examples of generative AI include those described above. 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 shown 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.

[1286] Other examples of generative AI include Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) are some examples.

[1287] 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.

The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and controlled object 443 are also connected to the bus 52.

[1293] 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.

[1317] (Example 1)

[1318] Next, we will describe Embodiment 1 of Example Form 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[1319] The procedures related to property succession are complex and time-consuming, placing a significant burden on both the deceased and the successor. Furthermore, difficulties in information sharing among stakeholders and managing the progress of procedures lead to delays and errors. In addition, end-of-life planning support through social networking services is insufficient.

[1328] "Social networking services" refer to platforms on the internet for people to share information and interact with each other.

[1329] "End-of-life planning support" refers to activities that assist individuals with preparations and procedures they undertake while they are still alive.

[1330] The embodiment of this invention is a system for streamlining property succession procedures and reducing the burden on those involved. This system uses an interactive information processing device to receive input from the user and performs analysis using natural language processing technology.

[1331] The server uses a cloud-based platform, specifically utilizing common cloud services. The server receives information about asset succession submitted by users and securely stores it in a database. The received information is then fed into a generative AI model. This model uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the information and identify necessary procedures and documents.
