it's crucial to cultivate a
culture of using
technology effectively
• Divide between AI adopters
and non-adopters
• Technology is not a
substitute for social and
political change but rather a
complement to it.

There are probably fewer than 50 people in Japan who can design an LLM from scratch.
Two interpretations offered by LLMs
A machine that
generates the most
plausible texts in
response to directives.
A multi-lingual
knowledge base that
provides answers to
inquiries. 7

Impact on
Industries:
• Advancing digital transformation within
enterprises.
• Profound R&D impacts, especially in drug
discovery and healthcare.
• In Japan, a significant boost to creativity.

Value creation is several trillion dollars
annually.
• Approximately 75% of the value
brought by use cases of creative AI
is concentrated in four areas:
customer operations, marketing and
sales, software engineering, and
R&D.
• For instance, tasks include
supporting interactions with
customers, generating creative
content for marketing and sales,
and creating computer code
based on natural language prompts.
• Impacts industries such as banking,
high-tech, and life sciences.

Proposal for Proper Use of Image Generative AI
and Proper Application of the Copyright Law
1.For image-generative AI like Stable Diffusion, bypassing
Article 30-4 of Copyright Law isn't allowed; prior written
consent from copyright holders is a must.
2.License fees for AI's use of copyrighted images should be
based on consumer usage frequency.
3.Only AI-generated works with clear human creative input
receive copyright protection; purely AI creations don't.

Draft Guidelines for the Use of Generative AI in Schools by
the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and
Technology of Japan (July 2023)
1. Generative AI offers significant convenience but also presents risks such as
copyright infringement, spreading misinformation, and influencing creativity.
2. Initial use in schools should be limited and carefully managed.
3. Misconduct includes using AI-generated content as
students' work for submissions or competitions.
4. Appropriate use includes employing AI to find missing perspectives and deepen
discussions during thinking and planning activities.
5. Children might use generative AI outside school, hence the necessity for
enhancing the development of their information utilization skills to combat the risk
of misinformation and 'filter bubbles'.

Future Outlook: Generative AI‘s Direction
Scaling law: Performance monotonically increases with
increased computational complexity, data size, and parameters.
Integration of multimodal information (audio, video, IoT data).
Emergence of open-source, open-data, and lightweight
computing models.
Transition from inductive tasks to deductive tasks (multi-step
reasoning)
Automatic acquisition of knowledge through embodiment and
agency.

Conclusion
今後5年間で人間に求められることは何か。生成AIを道具として
使いこなす指示力が重要となる。生成AIの著作を採用するかし
ないかの判断力も求められる。
だから教育現場も変わる。宿題を学生本人がやったかどうかの
真贋判定するよりも、当人のコンピューター以上の文章が書ける
能力を問うようになる。生成AIの破壊力により人間にしか提供で
きない価値が先鋭化し、企業事務と教育のあり方が変わるの
だ。

Californian School Girl Version
So like, what's gonna be expected from people in the next five
years?
It's gonna be super important to know how to use generative AI as
a tool, you know? And also, we're gonna need to figure out if we
should use stuff made by these AIs or not.
That's why schools are gonna change too.
Instead of trying to figure out if a student actually did their
homework or not, it's gonna be more about if they can write
something even better than a computer can.
Because of the whole AI thing, the stuff that only humans can do is
gonna become even more important, and it's gonna change how
businesses and schools work and stuff. 37
British Professor Version
As we contemplate the ensuing five years, what shall be demanded
of mankind? A crucial competency shall be the effective utilization of
generative AI as an instrument, in addition to the discernment
required for determining the adoption or rejection of works produced
by such AI.
Thus, the domain of education shall undergo transformation. Rather
than ascertaining the veracity of whether a student has completed
their homework autonomously, the emphasis shall shift towards
assessing the individual’s capacity to compose textual content
exceeding the capabilities of their personal computing devices.
Owing to the disruptive force exerted by generative AI, the value that
solely humans can provide will be honed, ultimately altering the
modus operandi of both corporate administration and education. 38
未来的五年,给人们提出的要求是什么呢?其中,
熟练高效地运用生成式AI的能力将变得愈发重
要。同时,还需要判断是否采纳生成式AI给出的
具有著作权的回答。
因此,教育领域也将发生变化。与其判断学生是
否完成了作业,教师要更加重视学生们是否具备
了超越计算机的写作能力。由于生成式AI的巨大
破坏力,只有人类才能提供的价值将变得更加凸
显,企业活动和教育方式也必将发生改变。 39
