The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The declining birthrate and aging population, together with a decrease in the number of government employees, have created a need to reduce workloads in order to maintain public services with limited personnel. In addition, while demand for generative AI among local governments is growing, challenges remain, including security concerns and a shortage of specialized personnel.
