SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son has found a new love in artificial intelligence (AI) after being driven to tears by the sense he was nearing the end of his career without having pursued his dreams. At the annual meeting of the Japanese tech investment company, Son told shareholders that ChatGPT, an AI tool, had helped revive his spirit. Despite the global tech selloff and its own investment losses, SoftBank’s CEO is now ready to lead the AI revolution and has plans to invest in the sector. Losses from its technology funds had left SoftBank with a net loss of ¥970bn ($6.9bn) for the fiscal year ended March, the company reported in May. Son is keen to develop AI technology that works together with humans and better understands human emotions so it can be used for positive ends. SoftBank’s share price rose 3.7% after Son announced the shift in his investment stance.
