Android Sings With Orchestra In Osaka Opera

An opera billed as a "performance of the future" starring an AI-equipped android, Android Maria, will be staged in Osaka on May 16, 2026. Modeled after the late wife of musician Keiichiro Shibuya, the android uses built-in cameras and microphones for recognition and multilingual dialogue, and will perform alongside a live orchestra and Buddhist monks from Mount Koya, organizers said.
