Something that AI can't do: Picture story telling (Kamishibai)

On November 9th, I went to a Thursday salon event "Time in need of elevator-pitch--from a picture story teller: Finding hints of making your presentation have an impact with one phrase"  (presenter: Hajime Fujii) held at the Knowledge salon.

According to the presenter, presentation of paper story telling is still not possible for artificial intelligence. In the future, it might be possible to detect body temperature and facial expressions with a sensor to change the content of the picture story according to the detected values.

Something that was intriguing about the presentation was that picture story tellers change according to the children's facial expressions. When children lose their interest, they will walk away, so it's a harsh situation.

I found out that there are two types of jobs: jobs that can be replaced by AI and jobs that cannot be replaced by AI. The enemy of human kind is not only machine but also human itself (like emotions, interests, and concerns).

Maybe my next presentation will be done in a style of picture story telling.
