The Japanese push for a global approach to artificial intelligence and electronic commerce
Abstract
Japan is one of the most advanced countries in the digital sector, as well as a staunch defender of multilateralism and free trade. This has led it to be one of the leaders in discussions worldwide about the principles that should govern the development of artificial intelligence and electronic commerce. Regarding artificial intelligence, Japan promotes that it serves to solve social problems and be human-centric, for which it has developed different principles at national level that it has later promoted in fora such as the OECD or the G20. Regarding electronic commerce, Japan leads the negotiations in the WTO. It has also adopted a series of bilateral treaties with the European Union, the United Kingdom and the United States of America, as well as other multilateral ones with Asia-Pacific States, such as the CPTPP or the RCEP, whose chapters on electronic commerce are very relevant and will mark the future of the matter.
