“…Within the societies in which such automating technologies became prevalent, human beings found themselves surrounded by highly effective (but passive and asocial) electronic tools that would do exactly-and only-what they were instructed to do by their human masters. It is only in recent years that various forms of AI have begun to develop social and emotional capacities and degrees of autonomy that allow them to become meaningful companions and competitors to the creative, social human intellect (Kanda and Ishiguro 2013;Ford 2015;Pfadenhauer 2015;Sachs et al 2015;Vallverdú 2015;Yakut 2018;Mazzone and Elgammal 2019).…”

The Government of Japan’s “Society 5.0” initiative aims to create a cyber-physical society in which (among other things) citizens’ daily lives will be enhanced through increasingly close collaboration with artificially intelligent systems. However, an apparent paradox lies at the heart of efforts to create a more “human-centered” society in which human beings will live alongside a proliferating array of increasingly autonomous social robots and embodied AI. This study seeks to investigate the presumed human-centeredness of Society 5.0 by comparing its makeup with that of earlier societies. By distinguishing “technological” and “non-technological” processes of posthumanization and applying a phenomenological anthropological model, this study demonstrates: (1) how the diverse types of human and non-human members expected to participate in Society 5.0 differ qualitatively from one another; (2) how the dynamics that will shape the membership of Society 5.0 can be conceptualized; and (3) how the anticipated membership of Society 5.0 differs from that of Societies 1.0 through 4.0. This study describes six categories of prospective human and non-human members of Society 5.0 and shows that all six have analogues in earlier societies, which suggests that social scientific analysis of past societies may shed unexpected light on the nature of Society 5.0.
