3 Key Points

What happened
Ipros is running a free seminar on December 10 at Tokyo International Forum, where Japan DX Promotion Association's Yuichi Morito will present a three-stage method for building 'AX talent'.
Why it matters
The session targets manufacturers where only a few people use generative AI, arguing that companies get results by designing which work AI handles and which stays with people — before choosing tools.

Context & Analysis

The seminar is aimed at a gap the organizers describe plainly: manufacturers have tried generative AI, but use stays with a small group and does not reach the shop floor. The stated remedy is not a tool choice but a people choice — having staff who can map work processes and decide which tasks go to AI and which remain with humans. That framing puts the emphasis on internal capability building rather than procurement.

Morito's background spans public and private-sector change work. He serves as a regional informatization advisor for the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications and a sharing-economy evangelist for the Digital Agency, and works as a CDO or CAIO aide to local governments. The talk draws on that experience with DX and AI training programs and support for small and medium-sized manufacturers.

The session is one of more than 50 talks at a larger exhibition expected to draw over 100 AI and DX solution providers, running alongside the first Manufacturing AI/DX Expo and the first Construction and Building AI/DX Expo, plus a physical AI and robotics zone.
