TOKYO (Reuters) -SoftBank Group CEO Masayoshi Son said on Friday that the group’s mission was to help in humanity’s progress by realising artificial super intelligence, which he said would exceed human capabilities by a factor of 10,000.
“SoftBank (TYO:) Group has done many things until now that have all been a warm up for my great dream to realise artificial intelligence,” Son told shareholders at the group’s annual general meeting.
Artificial super intelligence could come within 10 years, he said.
The technology investor’s ambitions for artificial intelligence (AI) rest on its subsidiary Arm Holdings (NASDAQ:), the British chip designer whose designs are used in the data centre infrastructure that sits behind AI, Son said.
