- Profile
- Graduated from Keio University, Faculty of Law, Department of Political Science. Graduated from Tokyo University of the Arts, Graduate School of Film and New Media, in the area of screenwriting. After working as a screenwriter for National Geographic and other domestic and international film productions, I became the director of story generation AI development at Ales Inc. and researched and developed a story co-creation system between humans and AI (patented PSL technology). Japan's first AI scripted film "BOY, SPRPUTED" was selected as the opening film at SSFF &ASIA, an international short film festival. I have been a lecturer at Ochanomizu College of Art and Design, a project researcher at the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO), an academic specialist at the Next Generation Intelligence Research Center (AI Center), Graduate School of Information Science and Technology, University of Tokyo, and a visiting professor at the Manga Department, Faculty of Art, Kyoto University of Art, where I currently serves.
