Softbank Corp. CEO son: AI's wisdom is expected to surpass that of human beings within 10 years.
CTOnews.com, Oct. 4 (Reuters)-Masayoshi son, founder and CEO of Softbank Corp. Group, said today that he believes General artificial Intelligence (AGI) will be realized within 10 years, and AGI is "AI that surpasses human intelligence in almost all fields".
It is reported that son delivered a speech at the Softbank Corp. World Enterprise Congress today. He believes that generative artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT is developing rapidly, and he believes that AGI will be 10 times smarter than all human wisdom combined in the future.
CTOnews.com has reported many times before that son is quite optimistic about the development of AI, claiming that he is a "heavy user" of ChatGPT and communicates with ChatGPT "almost every day".
Son also said earlier that Softbank Corp. was developing a Japanese version of ChatGPT and made a statement, saying that "if you can't embrace AI, you will lose the future."
Last month, ARM, a British chip designer owned by SoftBank, officially launched on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, raising $4.87 billion, making it the largest listing so far this year. On the occasion of the listing of ARM, Masayoshi son said once again that he was a "loyal believer" in artificial intelligence and that ARM was the "core" beneficiary of the artificial intelligence revolution.
At the general meeting of shareholders on June 21 this year, Masayoshi son showed a slide called "the Speed of Evolution (Evolution Speed)", showing the chart of human evolution. From the birth of mankind to the agricultural revolution, the curve was completely smooth, and the curve did not rise slightly until the transition from the industrial revolution to the information revolution. He said at the time that in the next few years, due to the development of artificial intelligence, the curve would rise sharply, with a slope close to the vertical line.
