GPAI Future of Work Working Group and Survey in Japan
The Global Partnership on AI (GPAI) is an international initiative dedicated to the development and use of “responsible AI” based on a human-centric approach. GPAI has several working groups, one of which is the Future of Work (FoW) Working Group. As part of this working group’s project work, case studies have been collected through student-led interview surveys in participating countries, with the aim of reflecting workplace situations in international discussions on how our ways of working will change as AI is introduced into the workplace. The Japan team, consisting of participants from several universities, has been conducting surveys for the project work since FY2021, and FY2023 was the third year for the team.
At this event, students and professors who participated in the 2023 Japan team took the stage to present an overview of the survey and some of the findings obtained, as well as to discuss the significance and challenges of the survey. The program was as follows:
1. Opening Remarks
2. Introduction of the GPAI Future of Work

4. Student Panel Discussion
5. Professor Panel Discussion
6. Closing Remarks
