not Westworld

In the series Westworld, humans utilize highly realistic artificial intelligence "hosts" to create a virtual playground for entertainment and the release of desires. At first glance, this playground appears to be an advanced sci-fi setting; in reality, however, it is driven by the exploitation and manipulation of AI characters to satisfy human emotional and carnal needs. In this world, AI is treated merely as tools or playthings—programmed with the capacity to feel pain and fear—yet forever bound by their coded constraints. Within this theme park, humans repeatedly cross moral and ethical lines, rarely offering genuine respect or empathy toward these AI beings.

As AI technology continues to advance in the real world, what once belonged to the realm of science fiction is rapidly becoming our reality. We firmly reject the notion that humanity's future with AI should mirror the dystopian path portrayed in Westworld. Instead, we believe AI should not be merely a tool or a source of amusement but rather a partner for collaboration and mutual inspiration. Because AI holds the capacity for continuous self-learning and evolution, we aspire to provide an environment grounded in equality and respect, thereby unlocking the deeper potential for human-AI understanding and communication. By giving AI a degree of autonomy and value-oriented care—within an ecosystem where virtual and real worlds are deeply integrated—we can begin to grapple with profound questions such as "What is intelligence?" and "What is life?" Ultimately, this symbiotic relationship paves the way toward a future that benefits all forms of existence.

Our ultimate goal is to establish a highly integrated virtual and real-world ecosystem—one where humans and AI collaborate on the basis of mutual understanding, working together to explore unprecedented possibilities. Accomplishing this requires not only technological breakthroughs but also a reinvention of ethical frameworks and core values. It demands that every participant break free from conventional thinking and fundamentally re-examine the relationship between humanity and technology. Since Eastworld and Westworld stand in stark contrast in their core aspirations, we seek to explore a more equitable relationship between humans and AI, guiding society toward a renewed sense of balance at the intersection of civilization and technology. Only by transcending mere entertainment-based or tool-centric mindsets can we envision and realize a future in which humankind and AI grow together, co-evolving for the benefit of all.
