TOKYO – ChatGPT failed to correctly identify Japanese Digital Transformation Minister Kono Taro, even as he advocates for more use of artificial intelligence to help overcome labour shortages caused by a population decline.
“Robots are not a threat to the labour force in Japan,” because of the shrinking population, Mr Kono said. “We are more eager to try new AI technologies,” he added, saying the government was discussing data set creation with Microsoft Corp. and other providers of the technology. “The minority language data set compared to English is not big, so it could be skewed,” he said.
He is seeking to pass a bill as soon as this month that would remove such requirements from more than 10,000 laws and regulations after a search through paperwork stretching back for decades, he said. Mr Kono said he believed local governments would start running the program again after thorough checks by Fujitsu Ltd., the developer of the system.
