At the closing ceremony of the Future Investment Initiative (FII) held in Miami, USA on February 21, SoftBank's founder and CEO Masayoshi Son was invited as the keynote speaker to discuss future trends in AI and the Stargate project (Stargate). Despite the host's praise over the years, Masayoshi Son remained humble, admitting that he feels he has not achieved anything yet, wasting a lot of time, and still has many dreams to fulfill.

Stargate will enable explosive growth in AI computing power

Masayoshi Son mentioned the Stargate project announced with (Donald Trump), the former President of the United States. He emphasized that this would be a key to changing the speed of AI development. He used simple math to illustrate: 'We plan to provide 10 times more chips each year, with the computing power of each chip increasing by 10 times, while the capabilities of each generation of AI models can also be improved by 10 times. In other words, the growth in the first cycle is 1000 times, and in another year and a half, it will grow another 1000 times. In just a few years, the intelligence of AI may increase by 1 billion times.'

He added that GPT-4 by OpenAI can now pass doctoral exams in various fields, including mathematics, physics, law, and medicine. When the host asked, "Now it's already smart enough, what about in a few years? When intelligence becomes 1,( times, how should humans respond?" Masayoshi Son excitedly said, "This revolution will be faster and more intense than everyone imagines!

Now is the time to go all in, shouldn't be afraid to invest

When it comes to market competition and investment risks, Son's attitude is unusually firm. He said that many people are worried that Stargate's investment of $500 billion is too crazy, but he believes that the GDP growth brought by AI in the future will far exceed this number. 'According to estimates, the AI industry will contribute $15.7 trillion by 2030, which is equivalent to 5% to 10% of global GDP. If the market size is 9 to 18 trillion dollars per year in the future, then investing trillions of dollars is nothing.'

He cited that OpenAI currently holds 80% of the AGI market share, with 400 million active users per week, doubling from a few months ago. 'This is an explosive growth market, now is not the time to hesitate, but to go all out.'

The United States leads the world in AI, and restricting AI development in Europe is the wrong choice

When asked whether Stargate will make the AI market more closed and only allow the United States to dominate, Sun Zhengyi bluntly stated that all AI innovations currently come from Silicon Valley in the United States, with Nvidia controlling 95% of the AI chip market, and OpenAI and American technology giants leading the development of AI, which has become a fact.

He criticized some countries' restrictive policies on AI, believing it is counterproductive. "In the past, the US Biden )Joe Biden( administration and some European countries wanted to restrict the development of AI, which is wrong. China has already demonstrated their determination and capability, and this competition will not stop. Now is not the time to slow down, but to go all out," emphasized Masayoshi Son.

I am a gambler, and also a dreamer

The well-known magazine Harvard Business Review )Harvard Business Review( recently listed Masayoshi Son as a case study, summarizing his philosophy of success, including 'turning adversity into advantage', 'perseverance', 'bridging Eastern and Western cultures', 'bold investment', and so on. In response, he smiled and said, 'I am a dreamer and a gambler. I did indeed choose the wrong investment target, such as WeWork, but I learned from my mistakes.'

He emphasizes that when facing challenges, he would rather make mistakes because there are too many challenges than not try because of fear. If he misses opportunities just because he is too timid, he will truly regret it.

AI should be part of life, embrace it rather than restrict it

When it comes to how young people should face AI in the future, Masayoshi Son shared his own educational perspective on raising children. "My daughter asked me whether children should use ChatGPT. I said it's not just about using it, but about making AI a part of their lives."

He further explained that in the past, in some places, the lack of electricity led to completely different ways of life. "Now AI is the new electricity! If AI can expand our intelligence by 10 billion times, how can we not use it?" He encourages young people not to be afraid of AI, but to deeply integrate and actively learn, turning it into their own advantage.

In the closing dialogue of this FII summit, Son showed once again his bold investment and firm belief in embracing AI. He emphasized that AI is not just a technology, but a global revolution in progress. 'This is not the time to stop and think, but the time to accelerate forward.'
