AI is no longer limited by algorithms—it is constrained by energy, latency, materials, and trust. In this keynote, Rika Nakazawa, executive leader at NTT DATA, reframes the AI debate from model supremacy to system design at planetary scale. Drawing on NTT DATA’s work across AI platforms, photonic networks, and emerging quantum infrastructure, alongside her applied doctoral research, Nakazawa introduces Organic Intelligence: a design paradigm that treats intelligence as embedded in physical infrastructure, energy flows, and human context. Moving “from code to carbon,” she explores how bio-inspired systems, optical networks, and observation-driven AI can deliver scalable performance while dramatically reducing environmental and operational cost. This keynote positions AI not as a race for raw compute, but as an engineering challenge of integration, resilience, and alignment—where leaders capable of designing end-to-end intelligent systems, from infrastructure to impact, will define the next era of trusted AI at scale.
