Against the backdrop of rapid iteration of the global artificial intelligence industry, Japan, which is deeply “behind for a long time,” is trying to reverse its shortcomings in this field through an AI industry acceleration plan covering the whole country. According to the “Nihon Keizai Shimbun” report on the 21st, the Japanese government has begun cooperation with major Japanese machinery companies such as DMG Mori Seiki and Komatsu Seisakusho to comprehensively collect manufacturing data through the distribution of unified “ID cards” for industrial machinery within the factory. This data will be used to develop basic models made in Japan, and eventually create “physical AI” that can support autonomous operation of robots and other devices. The chairman of the core company responsible for developing basic models made in Japan confessed in an interview with Japanese media recently, “This is the last chance. Once you fail, there's no going back.”
