Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for creating design data for posters, such as using templates or application programs, often require users to manually designate images and prompts, which can be cumbersome and inefficient, especially when desired content is not available.

Innovation Solution

An information processing apparatus and method that utilizes generative AI to automatically determine prompts for generating content based on user-defined target impressions, reducing the need for manual trial and error in prompt designation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If users manually designate images and prompts for poster creation, then they can have control over content selection, but the process becomes cumbersome and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of poster creationVSAvoidtime for manual prompt designation
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service by allowing the generative AI to automatically generate content based on the target impression and poster template, eliminating the need for users to manually search for and select images. The AI serves itself by autonomously creating content that matches the desired impression.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The manual mechanical process of users searching, selecting, and designating images is replaced by an automated AI-based system. The generative AI model substitutes the manual mechanical operations with intelligent automated content generation based on impression analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Reliability

If users manually search for desired content, then they can ensure content quality, but the process requires multiple iterations and trial and error

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent qualityVSAvoidnumber of iterations required
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback by analyzing the target impression and using it to guide the generative AI in creating content that meets quality standards. The impression analysis provides continuous feedback to ensure the generated content aligns with the desired poster impression, reducing the need for iterative revisions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary action by pre-analyzing the target impression and using it to generate appropriate content before the actual poster creation. This preliminary impression analysis ensures that the content generated will meet quality requirements from the start, avoiding multiple trial-and-error iterations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If the system automatically generates content using generative AI, then productivity increases, but the complexity of determining appropriate prompts increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent generation efficiencyVSAvoidcomplexity of prompt determination
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the complex prompt determination process into manageable components: first analyzing the target impression to extract key characteristics, then using these characteristics to generate appropriate prompts for the generative AI. This segmentation simplifies the overall complexity while maintaining high productivity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The target impression analysis serves as an intermediary between the user's desired outcome and the generative AI's content creation. By introducing this intermediate step of impression analysis, the system translates user intentions into effective prompts without requiring users to directly craft complex prompts themselves.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

The present disclosure is an information processing apparatus configured to generate data of a creation product, and includes: a reception unit configured to receive designation of a target impression by a user, the target impression being an impression that is required to be eventually given by the creation product; and a determination unit configured to determine a prompt that causes a generative AI to generate a content to be arranged in the creation product. A first prompt determined by the determination unit in a case where the reception unit receives a first target impression is different from a second prompt determined by the determination unit in a case where the reception unit receives a second target impression different from the first target impression.
