In this report, based on our research, we describe "a living function-resilient society" as a desirable society and show the potential of AI and IoT technology to identify problems and resolve them. In terms of intelligence, to resolve issues associated with the variety in living function, we need to find innovative solutions using the variety in intelligence. Today, a society is emerging in which problems, data, and intelligence are ubiquitous. Sensing and recording technology is advancing and spreading throughout the society. Various organizations now store big data. In recent years, AI, such as data analysis technology, has been advancing. Human resources spread among universities, administrative organizations, care homes, regions, and companies can be linked to create an intelligence-ubiquitous society. New social issues emerge constantly. The type of innovation required today is the transformation of the society into an advanced interconnected society by using the ubiquity of data and intelligence in modern society to address newly emerging issues.
