SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son shared his ambition to achieve artificial super intelligence, which he believes will surpass human capabilities by a factor of 10,000. Son discussed the group's focus on combining robotics with AI for mass production, logistics, and autonomous driving, emphasizing the need for significant capital and partnerships.
