Steve McCarty 🇯🇵<p>Scenes from the keynote address, speaking from Ōsaka to Sarajevo. On the spur of the moment, I pulled out an uchiwa fan (団扇) to show cuteness from Japan to Eastern Europe, and I had it take bows at the end. The character on the fan is our city mascot, based on a terra cotta figure from 1,500 years ago found in the huge Imperial tumulus (古墳) here.</p><p>The screenshot of part of a slide shows the point I made about how revolutionary AI can be. Just as we have been Googling to get information when needed, without having to remember it, foreign languages and even knowledge itself could become like an accessory that younger generations rely on AI for. There is no telling how this will play out, but I know that internalized (身についた) knowledge constitutes my expertise, and the Japanese language has enriched my identity and relationships.</p><p><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technology</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/culture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>culture</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Japan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Japan</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/kawaii" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kawaii</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/cute" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cute</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/knowledge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>knowledge</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Japanese" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Japanese</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/identity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>identity</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/linguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linguistics</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>philosophy</span></a></p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/academicchatter" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>academicchatter</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/philosophy" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>philosophy</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/linguistics" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>linguistics</span></a></span></p>

Something about driving my train through a continent obviously based on Japan with a vaguely Cute Japanese woman giving me instructions in a language I don't speak is really Zen. Transport World Simulator and Tube Sim just stress me out. But Dreamy Train has just enough to keep my attention, without getting my adrenaline up, and enough content not to feel too repetitive or grindy. </span><a href="https://mm-galabo.com/dreamytrain/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">mm-galabo.com/dreamytrain/</a><span> </span><a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/a11y" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#a11y</a></p>
