技術は人を幸せにするのか？- Code for Japan 関治之氏×MIRAISE 岩田真一

• Code for Japan: civic tech org building open-community-driven society since 2013.
  • Mission: open community → better society; roots in 1990s open-source culture.
• Tokyo COVID-19 dashboard shipped in under 1 week; 300+ engineers contributed globally.
  • Adopted by 80+ municipalities as open-source public infrastructure.
  • Won Good Design Award; commissioned by Deputy Governor Miyasaka.
• Open-source = public goods: code is infrastructure, not data — no privacy risk.
  • Creative Commons equivalent for data/content; open data movement expanding.
• “make our city” project: citizens co-create smart cities, not passive consumers.
  • Passive “Society 5.0” won’t generate real richness; agency + creativity does.
  • Live pilots in Hamamatsu and other municipalities.
• Speed gap: 3.11 (2011) vs COVID — decade of network-building enabled instant mobilization.
• Taiwan cross-border civic tech collaboration; “手間返し” (mutual aid) over transactional payments.
  • Gen Z members now active; next gen will inherit open-source civic culture as default.
