This article is a translation. Read the Japanese original
Akita Prefecture has implemented Google Workspace across all departments and has adopted "Gemini Notebook (formerly NotebookLM)" as a research and writing assistant. By uploading multiple documents, Gemini Notebook enables users to summarize content, organize information, and understand relationships between different materials.
Meanwhile, Sapporo City is building a working environment that ensures security, centered around the development of its own proprietary network. Both local governments are designing their implementations—from deployment to operation—taking into account the unique requirements of municipal administration.
