The 55th OSAKA UNIVERSITY Open Lecture 2023 Co-creation and Dialogue for the Chaotic World

The situation in the international community has become chaotic, making it difficult to identify the current situation rather than the near future. However, the world we want to identify is very diverse, from the microscopic world in the body to the outer space. This diverse world encompasses the cyberspace where AI exists and becomes even more chaotic.
This year's 55th OSAKA UNIVERSITY Open Lecture was based on the slogan "Let's Make Together OSAKA UNIVERSITY Open Lecture" and was widely invited from all those who participated in the activities of the 21st Century Kaitokudo, including open lectures. Through dialogue with the participants, we aim to co-create a new perspective that identifies a chaotic world. We look forward to hearing from you.
