[Background of Sponsorship and Exhibition]
JSAI2026 is one of Japan's largest academic events, bringing together researchers, students, and businesses for research presentations, discussions, and networking on AI technology. GMO Internet Group positions JSAI2026 as both a gateway for translating AI research outcomes into social implementation and a key opportunity to build lasting relationships with the next generation of AI talent and researchers.
GMO Internet Group promotes AI research and utilization across the entire group, with a growing focus on generative AI adoption and the physical AI domain. GMO GPU Cloud, a high-performance GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) cloud service provided by GMO Internet, Inc., serves as a computing infrastructure supporting cutting-edge AI development, including LLM (Large Language Model) development and robotics research by corporations and research institutions.
Through this sponsorship and exhibition, GMO Internet Group will introduce its AI computing infrastructure, including GMO GPU Cloud, and further advance industry-academia collaboration toward the social implementation of AI and robotics through dialogue with the AI research community.
[Booth Exhibition Highlights]
At this exhibition, GMO Internet Group will showcase AI initiatives across its group companies, including an introduction to AI computing infrastructure such as GMO GPU Cloud, as well as AI applications in physical AI, humanoid robotics, security, payments, and e-commerce and media.
During the JSAI2026 program, a humanoid robot demonstration is planned as part of the corporate presentation session. Additionally, in the industrial session, GMO AI & Robotics Corporation will present a physical AI case study covering technical challenges and ongoing efforts in control technology, environmental recognition, and reinforcement learning aimed at achieving humanoid locomotion.
**● GMO Internet Group Area**
Throughout the five-day event, the booth will host a variety of stage sessions, offering visitors a firsthand experience of AI applications across GMO Internet Group. Exhibition themes will rotate daily, with poster displays updated to match each day's theme.
**・Exhibition Themes**
| Monday, June 8 | E-Commerce & Media |
| Tuesday, June 9 | Physical AI |
| Wednesday, June 10 | Security |
| Thursday, June 11 | Payments & Finance |
| Friday, June 12 | Physical AI |
A dedicated space will also be available for direct dialogue with researchers and speakers, providing visitors with an opportunity for in-depth discussions on research backgrounds, implementation challenges, and future prospects.
**● GMO GPU Cloud Area**
As AI technology advances rapidly, AI development is shifting from large-scale model "training" toward "inference (social implementation)." This area will introduce, through concrete examples, how GMO GPU Cloud — a high-performance GPU cloud service provided by GMO Internet, Inc. — is being utilized for AI training and research with an eye toward real-world deployment.
Visitors can also expect technical commentary from engineers, benchmark data, and insights into infrastructure building and operations. Furthermore, a Lunch Speaker Session is scheduled for Wednesday, June 10 at 12:50, featuring Tasuku Yamaguchi, Executive Officer & CTO of Turing, Inc., who is working toward the realization of fully autonomous driving through large-scale utilization of GMO GPU Cloud.
