About

Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech), established in 1881, is a prestigious institution renowned for its emphasis on science and technology. Based in Tokyo, Japan, the university has consistently achieved high rankings both domestically and internationally, reflecting its academic excellence and research contributions across various scientific disciplines. Its notable history took another significant step forward when it merged with Tokyo Medical and Dental University in 2024 to establish the Institute of Science Tokyo, positioning itself for even broader educational and research opportunities. In recent years, Tokyo Tech has been prominently engaged in the field of generative AI and large language models (LLMs). A significant endeavor in this domain was a collaborative project from May 2023 to March 2024, involving partnerships with Tohoku University, Fujitsu, and RIKEN. This project centered on the distributed training of LLMs using the supercomputer Fugaku, aiming to enhance Japan's AI research infrastructure and capacities. The initiative's results, which are anticipated to be released on platforms like GitHub and Hugging Face, mark a stride towards advancing the environment for developing sophisticated LLMs. A key figure in this project was Professor Toshio Endo, from the Global Scientific Information and Computing Center at Tokyo Tech, who played a crucial role in leading the parallelization and acceleration efforts of this research. Additionally, the work benefitted from collaborations with other prestigious entities such as Nagoya University and CyberAgent, Inc., fostering a rich environment for AI innovation and exploration. Tokyo Tech also maintains a specialized Artificial Intelligence department within its Computer Science school, underscoring an institutional commitment to AI research. Reflecting its proactive stance, the university released a policy on the use of generative AI in learning, stressing the responsible and ethical application of these technologies. Rather than imposing a blanket prohibition, the policy encourages informed and conscientious use, allowing instructors the discretion to integrate GenAI tools into their academic frameworks, thus nurturing a culture of innovation tempered with responsibility. The university's initiatives in large-scale projects, partnerships with industry leaders, and emphasis on ethical AI usage highlight its significant contributions to the field of generative AI, establishing it as a critical player in advancing this transformative area of technology.
