A inteligência artificial no Japão ressuscita Konosuke Matsushita – o lendário fundador da Panasonic

Engineers from Panasonic have created in Japan a digital copy of their great boss, Konosuke Matsushita, who started the company more than 100 years ago and died about 35 years ago. The idea is to raise the dead and continue the legacy of Konosuke Mattsushita, a Japanese man who was highly regarded.

In the 1920s, after starting a small lamp socket manufacturing business, he built one of the world’s largest electronic groups. It then produced household appliances, TVs and computers. Panasonic is less known today, but the company remains a leader in electronic components, and it’s a specialist when it comes to batteries for electric cars. Konosuke Matsushita, the company’s legendary founder, is still revered in management schools.

A digital resurrection

Many in Japan are excited to know more about the methods and bravery of their former boss. These engineers spent months working with an artificial intelligence institute linked to University of Tokyo. They entrusted their archives to this institute. Artificial intelligence digitized the books he published, as well as hundreds of radio and television interviews and dozens major speeches. Employees can now ask the clone directly about any problem they are facing in their company. The clone will answer them using his words, philosophy, and voice.

Other companies may be working on the same technology, but criminals could take inspiration from it. A Hong Kong employee was tricked by a large group. One of his managers invited him to a video conference with employees that he was familiar with, and then demanded that he make an urgent $25 million bank transfer. The employee was told to obey, but he soon realized that the other people on the video call were digital copies created by criminals.
