Japanese govt mulls using US’ AI tool for right-wing narratives: media_我的网站

一 |

A Chinese expert said the current Japanese government has fueled an anti-China atmosphere by portraying China as a "threat" and using increasingly sophisticated tools, including AI, to shape public opinion and build support for Japan's military expansion. Such moves, he added, appear to echo the tactics of Japan's militarism during World War II.
Gennai has also become part of the Takaichi government's broader AI strategy. Japan's Digital Agency said Takaichi instructed the government in December 2025 to utilize the platform, and will launch a large-scale pilot project targeting approximately 180,000 government employees across all ministries and agencies.This means Gennai may well be ingesting data encompassing erroneous remarks on the Taiwan region, illegal claims over the Diaoyu Dao, and narratives that downplay or even glorify Japan's wartime aggression, Yuyuantantian said.
It is worth noting that Gennai is integrated with American large language models represented by the Claude series developed by US AI firm Anthropic, which explicitly designates China as an "adversarial nation," it added.
Yuyuantantian warned that if politically biased or historically distorted material were incorporated into Gennai-generated government content, such output could eventually become what it called a "high-authority source of misinformation."
Deployed extensively across government administrative work, the AI could feed its outputs into official Japanese publications such as government reports, white papers and policy documents. Labeled as official material, such AI generated content may then be scraped into datasets and treated by other large language models as highly credible source material, it said.
Lü Chao, an expert on East Asian studies and a professor at the Liaoning Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times that the Takaichi government has helped fuel an "anti-China" atmosphere by portraying China as a so-called "major security threat," thereby building public support for Japan's military expansion.
Lü added the use of emerging technologies such as AI showed that efforts by Japan's right-wing forces to shape public opinion were taking increasingly diverse forms.
Japan's Asahi Shimbun previously revealed that Japanese right-wing forces have been using artificial intelligence on a large scale to churn out disinformation denying the Nanjing Massacre and claiming Japan treated civilians humanely during its invasion of China.
China's Ministry of State Security then published a commentary in July slamming such acts that trampled on historical justice and human conscience and have drawn fierce criticism from the international community and visionary people in Japan.
Historically, Japan repeatedly used domestic propaganda to stir public sentiment before and during its wars of aggression during World War II. Some members of the current Cabinet appear to be following a similar playbook for the Japanese militarism: distorting facts, stoking confrontation, portraying China as the main threat, and using that narrative to justify military expansion and pursue regional hegemony, Lü said.
"This is an extremely dangerous path, one that bears an unmistakable resemblance to the actions of Japanese militarism in the past," he added.
。 Rajinikanth’s Padayappa has pulled off a box office feat few could have predicted. The 1999 blockbuster, which returned to theatres as part of its 25 year anniversary celebrations, has crossed Rs 12 crore worldwide in its opening weekend, emerging as one of the highest grossing re-releases in Indian cinema.According to trade tracker Sacnilk, the film opened to an estimated Rs 4 crore worldwide on its first day. Instead of following the usual re-release pattern of sharp drops after day one, Padayappa showed steady growth across Saturday and Sunday, pushing its total weekend gross into double digits. Tamil Nadu led the charge, supported by strong collections from overseas markets with sizeable Tamil audiences.The numbers place Padayappa among the most successful re-releases in recent years, an achievement that underlines both Rajinikanth’s enduring star power and the film’s lasting connect with audiences.Nostalgia fuels a rare re-release runTrade analysts attribute the strong performance to a combination of nostalgia and theatrical appeal. Padayappa has long enjoyed repeated television telecasts and streaming viewership, yet the big screen experience appears to have drawn audiences in large numbers. Many theatres reported near full occupancy during evening and weekend shows, driven by fans revisiting a film that defined an era. The film’s sustained run is particularly noteworthy because re-releases typically depend heavily on opening day curiosity. In this case, repeat footfalls and strong word of mouth helped Padayappa buck the trend. Younger viewers, who knew the film largely through pop culture references and social media clips, also turned up in significant numbers, contributing to the growing collections over the weekend.Originally released in 1999, Padayappa went on to become the highest grossing Tamil film of its time. Its re-release success reinforces its standing as one of Tamil cinema’s most influential commercial films.The legacy of Padayappa and NeelambariDirected by KS Ravikumar and produced by Rajinikanth under his Arunachala Cine Creations banner, Padayappa featured an ensemble cast that included Sivaji Ganesan, Soundarya, Ramya Krishnan, Radha Ravi, Nassar, Manivannan and Abbas. The film blended family drama with spectacle, anchored by Rajinikanth’s commanding performance.Ramya Krishnan’s portrayal of Neelambari remains a cultural milestone. The character’s pride, rage and emotional volatility continue to resonate, often cited among the most iconic antagonists in Indian cinema. Adding to the renewed interest around the film, Rajinikanth recently revealed that he has discussed the possibility of a sequel told from Neelambari’s perspective, exploring her belief that she was wronged and her desire for revenge. AR Rahman’s soundtrack also remains a key element of the film’s appeal, with its songs continuing to receive thunderous responses during the re-release screenings.As Padayappa continues its victorious return, its box office performance stands as proof that some films do more than age gracefully.
