In April this year, Aldman, the president of the California Technology Corporation of California, visited Japan, the first visit after the company's product ChatGPT was launched in November last year.He met with Japanese Prime Minister Kishida, and revealed the wind sound after the meeting, and the company intends to open a branch in Japan.Under the corner of China and the United States, people can't help but ask: What can Japan contribute to artificial intelligence?
Kevin Kelly, known as the Internet thinker, believes that the Asian era is coming. As one of the founders of the connection magazine, he mentioned that in the world nearly 5,000 days later, it mentioned that Chinese companies have the potential within 10 years.The iPhone -like revolutionary products were blocked by the United States for the close relationship with the Chinese government, which caused it to cause variables.
The Japanese attach importance to social culture, unlike the Western individualism and self -centered tendencies; Japan also has many oldest companies that are still in business today.Look as an advantage.Kelly also mentioned the differences between Japanese aesthetics and the West, and believes that it is the source of inspiration that designers and innovators can refer to.This reminds the author of a documentary from the Japan Broadcasting Association (NHK). It has mentioned that Apple Computers started to make early referring to Sony's electronic product design.The results of communication between interchang.
Japan Islands is a constitutional kingdom in East Asia. The Emperor is known as the "One Department of Wanshi". It takes Shinto and Buddhism as the mainstream religion, and is often considered a society in the Confucian cultural circle.The author of civilization conflict, Huntington, pointed out that Dahe Culture is independent of East Asia and should be one of the nine civilizations in the world.The Japanese that the Yamato nation uses non -Roman letters as a natural language. The country's population is more than 120 million, especially for nearly one -third of the aged Japanese over 65 years old. Therefore, the Liberal Democratic Party's post -war Japanese society can provide the United States very wellDifferent big data, used as machine learning and analysis.As a developed economy, Japan is also a market that cannot be ignored.
In addition to the above about Japan's historical culture, political economy, and social structure, since 2016, the Japanese government proposed the "Social 5.0" plan as a Japanese national policy.The coordination of corporate power is the results of the cooperation between Japanese politics, learning, and business.Social 5.0 intends to use the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, robotics technology and big data to establish a balanced economic development, social environmental protection issues, and people -oriented super intelligent society.
Published in 2020 for the Social 5.0 Innovation: RedeSigning Law and Architecture for Society 5.0 report, pointing out that Japan needs a new governance system to respond to new transformation.In other words, not only will individuals change, but also changes, including government regulations, market behavior and social norms, and promote Japan's artificial intelligence research plan, university and network to the international community to attract overseas research projects to Japan.
In terms of business, new commercial supervision review processes, financing plans, and privacy security regulations need to be made to make the company easier to develop and push innovative products to the market.In terms of education, the government plans to provide certification and funding to domestic universities providing artificial intelligence education to ensure the supply of qualified developers.In primary and secondary schools, it will emphasize the ability to analyze data, and at the same time try to reverse the tradition of the dead memorial to the east students, and turn to the problem -oriented learning.
In short, as early as the 1980s, the Ministry of Economic and Industry of Japan tried to develop a fifth -generation computer, and the plan was planned. Although the "government -led" was accused of one of the reasons for the failure, it turned outMost correct.If in the next 10 or 20 years, Japan really transforms from 4.0 information society to a people -oriented and more environmentally friendly ultra -intelligent 5.0 society. This social technology imagination will probably bring different contributions to the world.
