Takeshita-san:.
I have read the English and Japanese versions of this book, and I think it will be one of the most important books of the 21st century.
This book is actually called Cybozu Style Books, a publishing company, Cybozu, which is also very interesting. So, first of all, I would like to invite Mr. Takabe, who was in charge of editing this book, to talk about his thoughts on this book and how it was created. Mr. Takabe:.
Best regards. Nice to meet you, my name is Takabe. Please give me a chance to meet you.
Takeshita:.
I see that Cybozu has a publishing company.
Takabe:.
That's right. Normally, we are a company that sells groupware such as kintone, but we have a mission of "Creating a society full of teamwork," and we are making a book to convey our culture and way of thinking alongside our tools. Takeshita:.
What kind of book is this? First of all, what is plurality?
Takabe:.
In a nutshell, this book is about how to turn people's differences into power. It is a book about how we can use technology to make positive and creative changes in the midst of division and difference.
Takeshita:.
Cybozu, you often do commercials for no code. I hear that even people with a liberal arts background can write code. Technology transcends differences in ability. It transcends differences in ability, and people who were previously excluded come in and become a source of power. Takabe:.
Yes, I think AI will develop and become more accessible.
Takeshita:.
After this, you will hear that the epicenter may be Taiwan, Japan, or East Asia!
Takeshita: What do you think of this book?
Audrey: Great book, great cover!
Glen: Last week was my 40th birthday. The first half of my life has been wonderful thanks to everyone in Japan.

She is talking about "creating a new social media pro-social media that is social and encourages people to cooperate" #TokyoPluralityWeek nishio We could completely eradicate scams with fake celebrity ads by requiring social networking sites to verify the contributors (KYC). This idea came from discussions of groups of 10 citizens each and a system of AI summarization #TokyoPluralityWeek https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Gqon-qaW0AEmvLW?format=jpg&name=small#.png

Talking about how social media today is "anti-social media" because it fuels division and destroys society, and that we need collaborative supportive social networking #TokyoPluralityWeek The two of them answered many passionate questions from the participants, even beyond the scheduled closing time.

hegemony_fyp plurality concept, not in a techno-libertarian way, but as a selective extension of the technology. I think it's soooo nice though! Gentle technology. hegemony_fyp It sounds nice to have someone who can show us a hopeful future, but I think the way of plurality is not to seek such a messiah, but to create the future through the collaboration of everyone. I think it is the way of plurality #plurality https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Gqovw7TawAA6IuL?format=jpg&name=small#.png

ryuichirot The session with Audrey Tan and Glenn Weil was interesting. Private property and social networking public institutions are also discussed.
Since English is a specialized language, I moderated the event to connect it to everyday life.
>Megumi2022 Plurality Talk Session. The talk session was about "consensus, not division", not criticism, not pressure to agree, but to work toward a common goal while acknowledging differences. I was filled with hope after learning that Japan has the cultural soil and potential to achieve this goal! In the Plurality talk session, I felt a strong sense of hope as I
