went to Japan, grabbed lunch at a cash only restaurant. paid with 10,000 yen and then they didn’t have enough change for it. so I ran to the nearest convenience store to break my 10k so and then paid them with the exact amount. no thank you either. wtf

I am a Japanese living in Japan. In the future, when AI starts to do intellectual work in earnest, there will be some exceptions, but most professionals such as lawyers(AI lawyer) and doctors(AI doctor) may be replaced by AI. When AI itself develops and designs the next generation of AI, as well as software and application development, digital engineers will no longer be necessary. Therefore, "information" subjects in high schools and digital-related courses in universities will become outdated and abolished. Surprisingly, the people who can make a living in this situation may be plasterers, painters, gardeners, and other rather cheap physical laborers that cannot be automated and can only be done by hand, which is not profitable using AI which is developed and introduced at high cost.

I believe jobs like call centers ..where you answer calls and respond to queries and such can be handled by a Good AI. Repeated jobs like Road works.. and such can be handled by robots also.. they dun tire and csn finish paving a road much faster than humans, resulting in less downtime.

Physical labor will be automated as well, the progress in humanoid robots like Optimus is a big topic right now. But there will still be a need for humans to organize and direct the efforts of AI labor. Even if you have a lawyer AI, it will be a while before that AI is allowed to stand in court, especially in Japan. You will still need real lawyers to interface with clients and the courts - maybe not in all situation, but many of them. Professions for which a human touch would be preferable are the ones that will be less automated, for example teachers, medical practitioners and artists. But they will still be assisted by AI, as that will improve their knowledge and effectiveness. Automation will impact many jobs, but not to the extent you describe. If it is done right, it will be a matter of finding the right blend between the effectiveness and cost reductions of AI and robotics, and the will and creativity of humans. There are people who will thrive in the world of AI, as "AI controllers" of sorts, and people who will be unable to adapt. Governments should prepare to support the latter in this transition.

When introducing AI robots, the cost of developing an AI robot that can replace complex manual labor, and the cost of renting or purchasing that AI robot are both prohibitively expensive. On the other hand, the wages of manual laborers are generally low, so the cost of developing and introducing an AI robot to work must be lower than the wages of manual laborers. In this case, whether or not an AI robot can be used is a matter of comparing the two expenses. フィードバックを送信サイドパネル履歴保存済み

By the way, He’s not prime minister… Does he even have his own political faction? Does he have any power in Japan’s Parliament House?

@280pikachoo Ай бұрын

日本政府において、彼は大きな権限を持っています。行政の効率化、IT化、AI産業推進、その他多くの分野の責任者です。過去には外務大臣や防衛大臣を務めていました。有力な総理大臣候補です。

@1two3four5sixer Ай бұрын

Very likely he’ll eventually get a chance to be PM. To be PM, he doesn’t need his own faction. Shinzo Abe didn’t have his own faction throughout his tenure as PM.

I don’t support establishment. His grandfather and his father were both active in Japanese politics. He belong to the richest most powerful and best educated went to Keio high school and Keio university and then to Georgetown university. And he joined Nippon Tanshi before he followed his grandfather and his father’s footstep….he’s not like James David Vance.

This minister gets it, I like him. I wish we had a good one in France. Not sure how fast he will be able to love Japan though, if they are just out of the age of floppy disks... There's a lot of catching up before getting into the age of knowledge automation

@bruceparker1970 5 күн бұрын

I mean to be fair less than ten years ago the US military was still using floppy disks in their ICBM silos, if something works there's no reason to replace it till it breaks down.

I never knew MR Taro Kono has a fluency in English ........ It was quite surprising for me as a korean national viewing his interviews done with Bloomberg. haha keep sharing this to Korean nationals ! there should be a number of Koreans in need of him speaking english fluently....... !!!!!!!!! meaning that Japan is going not to be against Korea and be allied with ROK under USA !
