シンポジウム「Ahead of G20 – Artificial Intelligence and Innovation」
重点: デジタル化の進む社会会場: ベルリン日独センター
協力機関: ケルン経済研究所、富士通総研（東京）
“Technological innovation, especially in artificial intelligence and robotics, is another area that Japan will ask world leaders to discuss”, The Japan Times reported on December 23, 2018 about Japan’s priorities for the G20 agenda in 2019 during its presidency. During Chancellor Merkel’s visit to Japan in February 2019 artificial intelligence was also high on the agenda.
Both Germany and Japan have made AI strategy a high priority in R&D and politics including the changes it will bring to the social and industrial structure. Germany and Japan have an interest in a level playing field with other major players.
In 2019, Japan will host the G20 summit for the first time. As democratic and liberal countries that have shared values and consistently defend and promote multilateralism and a rule-based international order, Japan and Germany play an important role in promoting principles and guidelines regarding the benefits and risks of AI.
In the forthcoming conference the implications of AI for our industries, economies, societies and politics will be discussed and its impact for new technologies will be assessed. Ethical questions like how can AI be beneficial for a human-centered society as well as common approaches to standardization will be discussed. Opportunities to strengthen German/European-Japanese cooperation in the field of AI and its regulations will be considered by various groups of stakeholders and experts from politics, industry, academia and research.
Day 1

In this session government representatives shall discuss their approaches with representatives from society and academia.
