■ What is "AI TABLE"?
"AI TABLE" is a special event held within Japan's largest AI exhibition, "AI & Artificial Intelligence EXPO (Spring)."
As a popular event that attracts many visitors every year, it will feature numerous highly anticipated sessions this year as well.
Focusing on the social implementation of AI, leading practitioners and experts will gather to not only introduce the latest trends but also engage in discussions that delve into "how to use it in practice." Covering a wide range of topics from AI agents to robotics, it provides a platform for visitors to gain knowledge directly applicable to their work.
■ Background of the Project
With the evolution of generative AI and AI agents, corporate AI utilization is shifting from "proof-of-concept" to "implementation and adoption." However, many companies face the reality that they are merely introducing tools and have not achieved true transformation—AX (AI Transformation).
This project aims to provide a platform where participants can concretely envision the "execution phase" of AX, by having leading practitioners share specific examples and real decision-making processes.
■ Moderators
The moderators for this event will be Kensuke Ozawa, Representative Director of the AICX Association, and Yota Kamikawa, Expert Director.
With their expertise in AI social implementation and corporate transformation, both individuals will facilitate discussions that go beyond mere technical introductions, delving into practical insights and decision-making perspectives directly relevant to real-world applications.
