Science, Technology and their Relationship to the Society (Under Construction)
What should the world be like in an era of advanced science and technology? Should we halt AI research?
For around 30 years, I have been engaged in research on Artificial Intelligence using Neural Networks. This work ultimately led me to propose “Dynamic Reinforcement Learning,” which incorporates Chaos Dynamics. In my paper titled “Dynamic Reinforcement Learning for Actors,” published in “Neural Networks” in January 2026, I discussed its relationship to “Thinking,” a representative higher-order cognitive function in humans.
Thinking based on chaotic dynamics, unlike conventional artificial intelligence that relies on analogies drawn from existing knowledge, has the potential to generate genuinely novel ideas independently. This implies that artificial intelligence could pose a potentially fatal risk. Now that we already possess technologies capable of enriching our lives, it is nonsense to gamble the future of humanity for the sake of further technological advancement. Fortunately, “Dynamic Reinforcement Learning” is still in its baby steps. Therefore, I urge that no further research be pursued until a global consensus is reached through sincere and thorough discussion among humanity.
In this site, including more generalized ones, I would like to share and put into practice the following ideas.
I’m not saying we should go back to primitive times or that we should be completely self-sufficient in everything. I believe I’m talking about something much more realistic.
I’m a complete novice when it comes to economics, society, and agriculture. But I want to use that to my advantage—to think freely about the future of society without being bound by conventional wisdom. Through discussions with all of you, I hope to identify areas needing correction while exploring feasible, better paths forward. I look forward to working with you all.
