SoftBank's Son Masayoshi is looking forward to "super AI" and targeting a $6.189 trillion net asset value.

SoftBank founder Masayoshi Son hopes to increase the net worth of this technology giant to $618.9 billion in the next ten years. Based on the prospect of artificial "superintelligence," he has set this ambitious goal. Son admitted during a speech at the annual shareholder meeting in Tokyo on Wednesday that this 100 trillion goal is ambitious, but he stated that SoftBank has repeatedly proven its ability to create value. This veteran investor describes SoftBank as a "goose that lays AI golden eggs." He said that since adopting a strategy built around AI superintelligence, which revolves around surpassing human capabilities, the company's value has multiplied. SoftBank's strategic core lies in a global shift Son describes, transitioning from algorithm-driven progress to the physical infrastructure needed to run these algorithms. He said the world is moving towards "physical ASI." At this stage, the bottleneck is no longer model design, but the chips, power, and data center computing power required to run advanced systems on a large scale. Son added that this aligns with SoftBank's determination to become a leading global AI robotics company.
