Cinnamon AI conducts 2-day AI training for Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Engineering
We conducted AI training for Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Engineering Co., Ltd. using the know-how that Cinnamon AI has cultivated to date.
[Background of the event]
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Engineering, Inc. considers it important to carry out activities to deepen understanding of AI/IoT across the company in promoting DX as a means of improving operational efficiency and competitive strategy. In addition to lectures and other efforts to raise awareness among all employees, we provided training to departments in charge of DX promotion on planning methods, which are the key to a project's success or failure.
Therefore, in addition to the deep knowledge of Cinnamon AI's business, which has a track record of working on AI projects with over 50 large companies, we received high praise for the level of satisfaction with the training conducted to date and the track record of our representative Hirano's presentations. We have decided to conduct AI training including this.
[Overview of AI training]
In this training, a lecturer from Cinnamon AI will first give a classroom lecture to deepen knowledge of AI, and then through group work, students will learn about internal issues, select themes for AI utilization, how to solve them, and qualitative effects. We implemented this with the goal of having a concrete understanding and ultimately being in a state where we can start an AI project.
■Training flow
Day 1: ① Deepen your understanding of what AI can and cannot do
② Based on the above understanding, identify issues and find themes for AI utilization
Day 2: ③Summarize specific solutions and effects regarding the above themes
In addition, approximately 300 Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Engineering employees, including online, attended a lecture by Mirai Hirano, President and CEO of Cinnamon AI, held prior to the training session, titled ``From Cost Reduction to AI as a Competitive Strategy.''

■Comments from training participants (excerpt)
“The key points to consider when moving forward with the projects that were raised as issues became clearer.”
"We were able to discuss a very specific system configuration for one issue, and it was very realistic."
"He led the way with his advanced knowledge."
[Future outlook]
An issue with the introduction of AI within companies is that, although it is being considered, the number of companies that implement it remains at a low level due to factors such as the level of understanding of AI and the concerns that arise when identifying issues.
In the future, in addition to conventional AI consulting services, Cinnamon AI will provide consistent support through AI training, from identifying AI utilization themes to identifying specific solutions and calculating implementation effects, to help client companies introduce AI and promote DX. We will support you.
