Abstract
This opinion article intends to address the emergence of what will, potentially, be a central concept in a very nearfuture, that of Society 5.0, and that emerges politically as a (con)sequence of the implementation of the concept ofIndustry 4.0. By proposing a deepening of the potential of the individual-technology relationship in fostering theimprovement of the quality of life of all people through a super-intelligent society, Society 5.0 is an extremely recentconcept as a guide for social development and that can have a profound impact on societies at all levels, such as interms of the quality of life and sustainability. This presentation is based on very recent publications, but it also has aprospective component, which always generates some indeterminacy and uncertainty. Also for this reason, thiscontribution seeks, above all, to help in this very urgent and necessary discussion.
