Government AI serves as the foundation that enables government employees to utilize AI in a safe and secure manner. As an initial measure, the Digital Agency is rolling out "GENAI (Derived from Generative AI. Pronounced GENNAI)," an environment for utilizing generative AI, to all ministries and agencies.

Based on the "Act on the Promotion of Research and Development, and Utilization of AI-Related Technology (AI Act)" (Cabinet Office) enacted in May 2025 and the subsequent "Artificial Intelligence Basic Plan" (Cabinet Office) approved by the Cabinet in December, the government has established a policy to lead the way in AI utilization, following the principle of "leading by example." By ensuring that AI use becomes common practice and well established among government employees, the government aims to enhance the quality and efficiency of its operations.

To enable the government to lead in AI utilization, the Digital Agency is implementing an environment for utilizing generative AI. During fiscal year 2026, approximately 180,000 government employees across all ministries and agencies are expected to have access to generative AI.

Alongside these efforts, the Digital Agency is currently promoting the following initiatives to further accelerate AI utilization: the development of advanced AI applications; support for the development of domestic Large Language Models (LLMs); the preparation of common government datasets; and technical support for other ministries and agencies. In the future, we aim to further enhance the generative AI environment so that all government employees, including those in regional and local branch offices, can experience improvements in the quality of their work.
