Summary
Masayoshi Son is betting big on AI, calling skepticism a bubble and predicting it will reshape economies and generate 20% of global output by 2040. He’s poured billions into AI startups, including OpenAI, and sees AI infrastructure — from data centers to next-gen batteries — as essential, estimating $5 trillion annually needed to fuel the revolution. SoftBank’s profits surged 5x thanks to AI bets, and they’re already building the energy backbone for this future, proving they’re not just forecasting — they’re building it.
