Show Notes

Join our PR team as we explore how Japan is helping build trust in the age of AI through Frontria, an international consortium led by Fujitsu that brings together organizations from around the world to advance AI governance.

As AI-generated content becomes increasingly realistic, how can we tell what is real? And how can societies embrace AI while maintaining trust?

In this episode, we look at how Frontria is tackling real-world challenges such as disinformation, deepfakes, and AI security by promoting practical solutions through international collaboration. We also explore Japan's broader efforts to support trustworthy AI, including its research ecosystem and initiatives that bridge innovation and social implementation.

Through an interview with one of Frontria's founding members, you'll hear why Japan hopes to serve as a bridge between different approaches to AI governance and help create a more trustworthy and resilient information society.
