Insane! SoftBank founder Masayoshi Son said in an interview last night that this wave of artificial intelligence will be 10 times, or even 50 times, the scale of the internet era. He mentioned that although the dot-com bubble burst in 2000 was brutal, looking back now, the peak of that time was just a small hill. After the bubble cleared, the internet ushered in massive free cash flow and genuine prosperity. As for AI, this is just the beginning—the future profits and growth potential are simply immeasurable. When asked about concerns over current market valuation corrections, he appeared extremely calm. He stated that market corrections are inevitable. He compared it to the 1929 Wall Street crash triggered by the electrification and automobile industries, noting that after that crisis, those industries experienced a century-long explosive growth. He admitted that if the AI sector were to see a significant correction, it would be the perfect opportunity for him to pour money in and buy the dip. When asked where the next trillion-dollar super company might emerge after his investments in Alibaba, ARM, and his bet on OpenAI, he didn’t hesitate to answer: physical AI and robotics. He further explained that whether it’s humanoid robots or industrial robots, as long as they are hardware driven by physical AI, they will be the most disruptive and massive opportunities of the future.
