Title: Web of Minds: Evolution of Common Senses in Societies with Diversity

Professor Yukio Ohsawa

Former Director of the Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence (2017-2018); The Achievement Award of the Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence (2017)
The University of Tokyo, Japan

Abstract: In this talk, the effects of the diversity of individuals and things, connected in society, are discussed. First, the concept of "chance discovery" developed by the speaker 25 years ago is introduced. Applying this concept to the use of data on markets and human mobility, the diversity of ideas and movements of humans, if connected, is shown to cause opportunities in businesses and the risk of pandemics. Furthermore, the evolution of common sense in society is discussed referring to the dynamics of the evolution of senses of words and items simulated by "semantic cells" where the interactions of words, ideas, contexts, and things are computed simply following their sequential co-occurrences. This talk will provide the audience with insights into the potential impact of the human-AI ecosystem, where data and the human mind co-evolve, on the new standards of human life.
