This figure is nearly three times the global average of 11%, suggesting a more cautious approach to AI development and deployment in Japan compared to Western tech firms that often prioritize speed. The findings point towards an engineering-first philosophy focused on ensuring safe human-robot coexistence rather than solely on rapid implementation. AI
