Extended Mind: Your Judgment Remains, AI Takes Action
Written by Masayuki Tomoyasu
Things got faster, but not easier.
The more polished drafts pile up, the heavier the burden of judgment becomes. This book calls that phenomenon “spinning in place.”
This book was produced through Tenro-in Bookstore’s author production program “AI Hyper Press.”
“Install” your experience, tacit knowledge, and decision pathways into AI. Your axis remains yours. AI does the thinking. This book is about reclaiming the quality of judgment, not just speed.
This book is designed for professionals in corporations, government, and academia who face challenges in knowledge utilization, and it architects “judgment” for the AI era. It traces five stages: ① decompose judgment ② extract experiential and tacit knowledge ③ define patterns ④ connect them as decision pathways ⑤ implement AI as an extension—illustrated through four real-world examples.
The author is a practitioner with 37 years in the semiconductor industry, having served as an executive on both the “selling side” and the “using side” of equipment. The practical knowledge of “judgment” gained from both perspectives is the starting point of this book.

📘 『2030年 半導体世界秩序——三重構造が世界を再定義する』
著：友安 昌幸
The “semiconductor shortage” phase is winding down. However, the rules of the industry itself are being rewritten right now.
This book presents a framework that redefines the semiconductor industry toward 2030 not in terms of the conventional “linear value chain” but in terms of the following three layers:
🔷 上層：演算資本主義 → 生成AIが演算能力そのものを新たな資本に変える世界
🔷 中層：レジリエント・グリーン基盤 → 地政学リスクと脱炭素要件が絡み合うサプライチェーン再編
🔷 下層：分散知能社会 → エッジAI・自律システムが社会インフラへ組み込まれる未来 そしてこの構造の中で、日本が持つ「素材・装置」の強みと 「社会実装の現場力」をいかに結び直すか
—— その戦略的方向性についても論じています。
業界の断片的なニュースを、 体系的な「戦略の物語」として読み解きたい方に向けた内容です。
