Industrial Revolution 4.0 was started with the concept of the digital industrial era/information and communication technology era in Germany with 6 main pillars namely digital society, sustainable energy, smart mobility, healthy living, civil safety, and technology in the workplace. Indonesia has implemented Industry 4.0.

The era of super smart society (Society 5.0) was introduced by the Government of Japan in 2019, which was made in anticipation of the turmoil of disruption due to the Industrial Revolution 4.0, which led to a complex and ambiguous liberation. Where at that time Japan was experiencing a population reduction challenge that reduced the productive age population/workers, Japan tried to improve this condition by implementing Society 5.0. It is feared that the invasion will erode the values of human character that have been maintained so far.

Society 5.0 is a society that can solve various challenges and social problems by utilizing various innovations that were born in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, big data, and robots to improve the quality of human life. Society 5.0 can also be interpreted as a concept of society that is based on humans and technology.

In facing the era of Society 5.0, the world of education plays an important role in improving the quality of human resources. In addition to education, several elements and stakeholders such as the government, Community Organizations, and the whole community also take part in welcoming the era of Society 5.0.

There are five elements in Society 5.0, namely: emotional elements, intellectual elements, physical elements, social elements, and spiritual elements. These five elements are related to each other in a balance. With the Society 5.0 concept, it is hoped that it can minimize the negative impact of robotic technology and artificial intelligence so that it does not dominate human life without adequate control, but humans are actors who control and control robotic technology and artificial intelligence. Thus, Society 5.0 is a foresight in organizing an ideal social life, as a response to the Industrial Revolution 4.0 which is feared will degrade the role of humans due to dependence on advances in robotic technology and artificial intelligence. With Society 5.0, it is hoped that there will be a balance of life between the use of technology and a more humane quality of human life.
