    CHAPTER 01

    The joy of transforming AI technology into a powerful ally for my colleagues—a lesson I learned in my first year.

    I chose SEGA SAMMY because I felt it offered an environment where I could apply my IT skills to the entertainment world I love and create new value.
    After joining the company, I was first assigned to the User Support Section. One of the tasks I focused on was “Prompt Kitchen,” a generative AI education initiative. This initiative promotes the use of generative AI across departments to enhance operational efficiency.
    First, we began with an introductory explanation of generative AI. This was followed by discussions of the business characteristics of each department, allowing us to select the tools best suited for their tasks. Finally, we provided instructions on writing effective prompts.
    This was a challenging job for me in my first year, but because AI is a relatively new technology, I felt it was a field where even newcomers can stay at the forefront if they put in the effort. Taking that first step allowed me to truly experience a great sense of fulfillment in “turning AI technology into a powerful ally for my colleagues.”

    CHAPTER 02

    Promoting safe AI use and creating an environment where people can focus on creative work

    I am currently part of the dedicated AI Promotion and Governance team, supporting the creative endeavors of the entire SEGA SAMMY Group. Alongside promoting AI use, an equally important mission is setting rules and guidelines to ensure its safe application. To stay up to date with the latest developments and news, I actively engage in information exchanges with external parties, interacting daily with people in diverse roles and perspectives. Through these efforts, we continue striving to create an environment where members of the SEGA SAMMY Group can devote their time to the creative work they are truly meant to focus on. The appeal of AI lies in its limitless potential, shaped by the individuality of those who use it. That is why I feel a great sense of reward in shaping new ways of working tailored to each person’s unique “style.”
    My goal is to take AI beyond a mere efficiency tool and turn it into a driving force for creating the unique “fun” only SEGA SAMMY can deliver. I feel a deep sense of pride in being able to contribute to work that expands the possibilities of entertainment.

One-Day ScheduleTypical daily schedule

  • 9:00〜10:00

    Review AI news

    I use a tool that automatically gathers AI-related news and similar resources to stay up-to-date on the latest information every day. The AI world changes rapidly, and what was common knowledge yesterday can quickly become outdated today.

  • 10:30〜12:00

    Regular meetings, project review meetings

    Since it's a team of three, including the section chief, I work with the mindset that even as a junior, I'm a key contributor. AI is still a relatively new technical field, so it’s exciting that even newcomers can compete on an equal footing.

  • 13:30〜14:30

    AI utilization meeting with other departments

    I carefully listen to what kinds of tasks each department handles and what challenges they face. Based on that, I propose the most suitable AI tools and specific ways to apply them to solve those issues.

  • 14:30〜16:30

    Test generative AI tools

    New AI tools emerge daily, so I test them out and select the ones best suited for use across the entire Group.

Message to students and those wishing to join our company

Many people at SEGA SAMMY HOLDINGS truly enjoy life. They value what they love and live by their own core principles. I believe that meeting many role models who inspire me to think, “I want to live like this person” and being exposed to diverse values is enriching my own life.
Even within a corporate division, the fact that it is never “passive” is characteristic. The company is a place where people who challenge themselves can shine, embodying the Group Value of “Creativity is Genesis × Always Proactive, Always Pioneering.” It is also a place where the unique qualities of a diverse range of colleagues are respected. Some, like me, take on challenges in new technologies such as AI, while others refine their expertise in various specialized fields. Together, these diverse challenges are shaping an entertainment future the world has never seen. I believe SEGA SAMMY is the ideal environment for those who want to undertake such creative work.
