Japan’s TGI President aspires to make technology, especially AI equally accessible to all


DUBAI: Akira Tsuchiya, President of The Global Institute (TGI) for Initiative, Interaction and Intelligence in Japan, expressed his hopes and aspirations to make technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI), equally accessible to all countries worldwide.

Akira, speaking to the Emirates News Agency (WAM) on the sidelines of the Global Governments Summit (WGS) 2024 in Dubai, emphasised the urgent need for a platform that provides opportunities for all governments around the world to benefit from AI, especially those that do not have sufficient capabilities to develop these technologies on their own.

He pointed out the necessity of international efforts to harness the uses of AI and make it available to all countries worldwide, regardless of their size or economic strength.

Akira explained that TGI not only focuses on research in the field of artificial intelligence but also serves as a bridge to connect experts from all over the world. He said, “What we do is facilitate a series of global dialogues to
ensure that all stakeholders remain connected and engaged in the development and distribution of artificial intelligence.”

Regarding the initial steps in his country, Akira affirmed that artificial intelligence is still in its early stages, expressing his hope that other countries would follow Japan’s lead in starting to leverage AI in various fields.
