AI, Creativity, and Diversity Pave the Way for Future Education and Conflict Resolution at Expo 2025

Expo 2025 Osaka Embraces Peace, Art, and Technology

Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan, is a global event that is not just about exhibitions, but also about fostering peace, promoting diversity, and embracing technology.

The exhibition, which is themed around peace, has seen cinema presented as another tool for social connection. Media artist Ochiai Yoichi has opened debates on how technology is reshaping learning, while the thematic project producer behind the Playground of Life: Jellyfish Pavilion, TeamLab, is bringing art and technology together to create a unique experience.

The Playground of Life: Jellyfish Pavilion is a project produced by Nakajima Sachiko, who also sees artificial intelligence (AI) as an ally. Contrary to concerns about AI's capabilities, Tarin Clanuwat, a Research Scientist at Sakana AI, acknowledges its limits but believes it can be co-lived with as a friend. However, Clanuwat warned of AI's potential to hallucinate and create mediocre results.

Nakajima Sachiko, in her role as Thematic Project Producer, has also emphasised that Expo 2025 is about inclusion and the unique characteristics of everyone. This inclusivity is reflected in the Peace Communication Declaration, a call for creativity and diversity to build bridges in a divided world.

The Peace Communication Declaration is a significant part of Expo 2025's efforts to promote peace. On Hiroshima Peace Memorial Day, children delivered the Declaration, reinforcing Expo 2025's call for creativity and diversity to build bridges in a divided world. The Declaration is a reminder of Expo 2025's commitment to peace, and it urges youth to take part in shaping a peaceful future, as urged by Izumi Nakamitsu, UN Under Secretary General and High Representative for Disarmament Affairs.

Chilean filmmaker Maite Alberdi believes that films help "break the pre-judge," especially around ageing, by telling unique, personal stories. The Peace Communication Declaration, in its essence, does the same - it tells personal stories of hope, peace, and unity, breaking the pre-judge and fostering a more inclusive and peaceful world.

The Learning and Playing Theme Week, currently taking place at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan, explores how artificial intelligence, creativity, and diversity can transform education and society. The event acknowledges Hiroshima Peace Memorial Day, signifying its importance within the context of Expo 2025 Osaka's mission for peace.

In conclusion, Expo 2025 Osaka is more than just an exhibition. It is a platform for peace, art, and technology, a reminder of our shared humanity, and a call to action for a more inclusive, creative, and diverse world.
