Have you ever thought of how your SNS will be treated after you die? Although more and more people use SNS today, few seem to be well aware of what will become of your SNS after your death.

The topic will be addressed by Dr Hiroshi Nakagawa, a Japanese prominent researcher and Team Leader in the RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project (AIP) for the AI Utilization in Society and Legal System Team. He will shed light on this issue and elaborate on how to treat it through his online presentation under the theme of “Delegation of Digital Heritage to Personal AI Agents”.
