Attendees at Tokyo Tech Talks #2

We’ve started publishing videos from Tokyo Tech Talks #2: Encoding the World.

If you were in the room and want to revisit the talks, or if you missed the event and wanted a feel for what we discussed, the first two recordings are now live on the Arcnem AI YouTube channel.

Now Live

Daniel Leuk — Ki Data: A Compact Language for Describing Data

Daniel, CEO of Ikayzo, walks through Ki Data (KD) and the broader Ki family of languages. It’s a good entry point into the question at the center of the night: what changes when the structure we use to describe the world is itself more expressive?

Mitchell Carroll — Data Is a Lossy Compression of Reality

Mitchell, Senior Product Manager at Mercari, looks at the gap between reality and the reduced forms we use in software. The talk is a sharp reminder that every representation leaves something out, and that those omissions affect product decisions, system behavior, and what teams can see clearly.

More To Come

Tokyo Tech Talks is designed to be small, practitioner-focused, and conversation-heavy. Putting the talks online is one way to extend that conversation beyond the room.

We’ll keep sharing recordings here as they go live, along with updates on future events.
