SoftBank Group’s chairman and CEO, Masayoshi Son, is said to be looking to invest tens of billions of dollars in artificial intelligence.
(Financial Times) — SoftBank is on the hunt for deals in artificial intelligence, including a potential investment in OpenAI, after the blockbuster listing of U.K. chip designer Arm bolstered Masayoshi Son’s multibillion-dollar war chest.
Two people familiar with Son’s thinking said that the Japanese conglomerate’s founder and chief executive is looking to invest tens of billions in AI after completing Arm’s initial public offering.
