It hopes to create an environment where AI creators can grow and support voluntary projects.

The AI category for SGM was created to lower the barrier for AI creators entering the industry, as well as to build a foundation for growth.

Applicants can sign up and submit an application on the official website of Future Lab Center (https://futurelab.center/) by the 5th of next month.
