It has become difficult to determine whether the character in a content is from the physical world or AI. Thus, metaverse initiatives we can grow and work together with AI. We are about to step into a new world that AI creates. In such a world, it is important for Taiwan and Japan not only to trade each other, but also to explore new insights together.”

Meanwhile, in a separate speech, Kunimi Mabuchi, Representative Director, Metaverse Japan, noted the depth of the collaboration of Japan and Taiwan in making breakthroughs.
