Japan’s society 5.0 is considered as motivation behind Socializing and adopting “Industry 5.0”. Development of automations to ripe the benefits in human actions is evolving to ensure a balanced collaboration between human and Intelligent machines. Industry 4.0 was fourth industrial revolution triggered and enabled by developments in IT. Key elements of industry 4.0 are automation, robotization, big data analytics, smart systems, virtualization, AI, machine learning and IOT. Many Industry are mostly middle of it while World has progressed toward next Industrial revolution namely “Industry 5.0”.

According to the European Union Industry 5.0 “provides a vision of industry that aims beyond efficiency and productivity as the sole goals, and reinforces the role and the contribution of industry to society”. “It places the wellbeing of the worker at the centre of the production process and uses new technologies to provide prosperity beyond jobs and growth while respecting the production limits of the planet”. This is quite something big and of course not new. But putting people and planet before profits and growth at centre stage in very definition is new.

On April 13th 2018, Elom Musk commented in “X”/ Twitter “ Excessive automation at Telstra was a mistake. To be precise, my mistake. Humans are underrated.”

Industry 5.0 is automation with a soul. It acknowledges all the weaknesses of excessive automation. Such as low flexibility of highly automated solutions and poor adaptability to changing needs and requirements. Bernt-Johan Bergshaven, Co-Founder of Clarify quoted “What I really like in Industry 5.0 is the part about shifting the focus back to people and not machines. Utilizing knowledge within the people working in the company has truly untapped potential. We should be focused more on techniques and solutions that will increase the trust in the factory floor workers and realize the value that exists there. The environmental impact, including both the impact on planet Earth and our society, is also very relevant.
