Given SoftBank’s investment obligations for an amount of more than $ 15 billion in the Stargate AI project, in which Openai and Oracle are also involved, the total number of SoftBank investments in the Chatgpt creator can exceed $ 40 one billion, said the newspaper.
FT writes that a transaction in the negotiation stage is an ambitious step of the founder of SoftBank Masaesi Sona, which aims to become a leading force in the industry by deepening the connections with Openai and its head Sam Altman.
The Stargate announced last week implies the development of artificial intelligence infrastructure in the United States. In the first stage, investments in the project will amount to around $ 100 billion, and then SoftBank, Openai and Oracle plan to invest up to $ 500 billion in it.
The position of President Stargate will take a dream. The first object under the initiative will be the data center with an area of more than 9 hectares in Texas, and the Oracle specialized in this will be responsible for the preparation of data centers. The president of the United States, Donald Trump, reported that Stargate will create 100,000 new jobs.
The AI Softbank, OpenAI and Oracle project criticized Ilon Musk. In their opinion, these companies “do not really have money,” and Softbank invested less than $ 10 billion in Stargate.
