First-come, first-served Audrey Tan and Glenn Weil will be the lecturers! [Special Lecture on Experiencing a Multidimensional Future: WIRED UNIVERSITY x [Miraikan For example, when the will of the 14 million people of Tokyo is expressed in an election, it is ultimately decided on a scale of 0/1 (zero/one), i.e., whether a person is elected or not. The future that emerges from this process is a predetermined “one” future, and just like the Singularity (technological singularity) that is now said to be approaching humanity in the near future due to artificial intelligence (AI), the will of the people will converge into a singular future. converge toward a singular future. How is it possible for us to live our daily lives in “complexity” rather than forcing this complex world to converge to “zero one”? How can we use technology as a tool to create a pluralistic future, rather than to confront a pluralistic society? Four lecturers from Japan and abroad will present special sessions on these major questions. Please join us for a one-day summer course to experience a multifaceted future.

Just when I didn’t think it could get any better… But suffice it to say that I have never experienced such a rich exchange and powerful resonance between my ideas and values and a culture so different from the one I grew up with.
