SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son is joining forces with President-elect Donald Trump to announce a massive $100 billion investment in the US AI sector ¹. This initiative aims to create 100,000 jobs across the US over the next four years, focusing on key areas like semiconductor manufacturing, data centers, and energy production infrastructure.
Son’s investment plan is part of a broader strategy to develop artificial superintelligence (ASI), which he believes will revolutionize industries like healthcare and technology. To achieve this goal, SoftBank is set to draw capital from its existing Vision Fund and new investment projects.
This move marks a significant shift in SoftBank’s investment strategy, which had been more cautious in recent times. The company is now willing to take on more risk to capitalize on the potential of AI technology.
