On June 17, Toyo Keizai Shimbun Inc.

● Contents of the Book Top runners talk about the current state of the "AI revolution" and the business future in 2030! The phase of "chat-based dialogue" is over, and an era has arrived where "AI agents" autonomously complete tasks and "physical AI" intervenes and acts in the physical space, significantly influencing corporate survival. Under the full supervision of Accenture, a major consulting firm, this book reveals the full picture of next-generation "AI-driven management" through thorough interviews with top runners at the forefront of AI. Starting with a head-to-head dialogue with Yoichi Ochi, it features important figures such as Tadahiro Nagaaki, President of OpenAI Japan, Naoki Shibata, a startup investor familiar with Silicon Valley trends, and Kazuaki Takeno, CEO of Mujin, who know the cutting edge of AI business. In addition, the book extensively incorporates essays by first-line AI & data consultants and case studies of advanced companies, covering the latest developments in AI utilization. With this one book, you can understand everything from basic knowledge to the latest trends and key points of implementation. What are the key points to break through the "wall of AI introduction" and become a company that truly masters AI? What is the survival strategy for corporations and business people in the rapidly changing AI era? This is the latest definitive version for all decision-makers and business people to know the true form of "fundamental AI transformation."
