In his TEDx talk, Hikaru Deguchi explores the power of integrating the META Communication Interface into our daily lives. This interface, which allows for seamless communication between individuals, has the potential to revolutionize the way we interact with one another. By breaking down barriers and enabling a deeper level of understanding, META Communication can foster stronger connections and promote collaboration.
Through compelling examples and personal anecdotes, Deguchi demonstrates how incorporating this interface into our communication practices can lead to more effective and meaningful exchanges. Whether in the workplace or in personal relationships, META Communication has the ability to improve empathy, problem-solving abilities, and overall communication skills.
As we navigate an increasingly complex and interconnected world, Deguchi’s talk serves as a reminder of the importance of leveraging new technology and tools to enhance our interactions. By embracing the META Communication Interface, we can cultivate more harmonious and fulfilling relationships, both professionally and personally.

Integrating the META Communication Interface: A Leap Forward for the Human Spirit.
This lecture addresses a critical issue that is unfolding globally: the decline of the human spirit. Amidst the rapid advancements in science, the human spirit is not keeping pace; instead, it’s regressing. The lecture defines the evolution of the human spirit through the enhancement of three fundamental capabilities: listening, viewing, and speaking. This evolution is crucial for advancing our interaction with the world. The failure of the human spirit to evolve alongside AI technologies could potentially lead to the deterioration of mental and physical health. The concept of “Kokorozashi” is introduced as a solution. This concept transcends self-interest, embracing a commitment to all life forms. The enhancement of our communication interface into a “META Communication Interface” through 17 technologies is discussed as a means to evolve the human spirit. This transformation, the speaker believes, can lead towards a more empathetic and interconnected world where everyone contributes towards the greater good. Kokorozashi is portrayed not as an individual struggle but a collective one, emphasizing the importance of uniting everyone’s efforts to preserve life on Earth. The lecture concludes with a call to action, urging the audience to discover their Kokorozashi and to live in a way that profoundly impacts their existence. It envisions a future where the evolution of the human spirit is recognized as a global mission, making “Kokorozashi” a universal language Hikaru Deguchi was born in Kyoto Prefecture.
