project overview
In April 2016, NEDO announced the development of next-generation artificial intelligence technology, and visualized it on a time axis along with predictions of the development of next- generation artificial intelligence technology. ” Technological Society Implementation Vision ” has been announced.
In order to further scrutinize this and respond to modern trends, we will investigate and evaluate materials from government agencies, opinions of experts, overseas cases, etc., and artificial intelligence technology and artificial intelligence that will contribute to solving social issues in Japan. We are currently formulating a new ” Overall Action Plan for Research and Development in the Field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Technology ,” which indicates the overall development direction for technologies closely related to AI and new technologies including artificial intelligence. .
*The action plan will be announced in early June.
