国際｜AI分野での同志国との協力加速 / International | Accelerating cooperation with allied countries in the field of AI.

Summary

The Japanese government has decided to promote cooperation in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) with European allies and developing countries referred to as the “Global South.”

This initiative aims to establish an independent supply chain without relying on the United States or China and to expand Japanese technology globally. Prime Minister Takagi has particularly emphasized the promotion of “vertical AI” and has outlined a policy to focus public and private investment on 19 key areas.

Dialogue

This dialogue is fictional and based on the article.

Log: Hey Chako, have you heard that the government is planning to collaborate with like-minded countries in the AI field recently?
Chako: Really? Why are they in such a hurry?
Log: I think it’s to create a supply chain that doesn’t rely on the US or China. Plus, they’re probably aiming to capture new markets as well.
Navi: Just to add, under Prime Minister Takaichi, the government is promoting “vertical AI” and intends to focus on 19 key areas to strengthen public-private investment.
Chako: I see! That could really help spread Japanese technology even further!

Admin’s Note

This article clearly outlines the Japanese government’s intention to accelerate international cooperation in the field of AI. Specifically, building a supply chain that does not depend on the United States or China is essential for safeguarding Japan’s technological capabilities in the future. As mentioned in the conversation between Chako and Log, I am particularly interested in how the promotion of vertical AI will progress and look forward to future developments. Additionally, I hope that collaboration with allied countries will open up new markets.
