The future of humanity lies in AI. As Chairman & CEO Masayoshi Son has explained previously, #AI has evolved beyond "computation" and "memorization" to the realm of "understanding," "deducting," and "creating". We are on the brink of AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) becoming a reality, and it is only a matter of time before ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence) is realized. AI is already improving our lives in various ways, and we anticipate the advent of ASI to be a turning point in the #history of mankind. Let's build a more connected, empowered, and joyful world through AI. For more insights from Masayoshi Son, visit our website: https://lnkd.in/eJBYdpsK
