… The shareholder meeting provides an opportunity for Son to lay out his vision for the business and field questions from retail investors.
Son has said that SoftBank is a golden-egg-laying goose and again returned to that comparison.
“Eggs do not lay eggs, the goose lays the eggs,” he said. “SoftBank Group is the factory that lays the eggs.”
He also complained about the gap between the company’s market capitalisation of around 37 trillion yen ($229 billion) and the value of its assets, which total some 74 trillion yen. “How long do I have to fight to convince you that the goose did a good job?” Son asked.
The entrepreneur, 68, said he will lead the company into his 70s to bring about “artificial superintelligence,” which he defines as being 10,000 times smarter than a human.
When criticism is blasphemy you know you’re dealing with a reasonable and balanced individual.
10,000 times smarter than a human.
Solid and objective metric. lol.
Well. I can believe it’s 10,000 times smarter than him.
I was already wondering whether this has aspects of a religious cult. Thanks for the clarification.
They’d make criticism of AI a terrorism charge if they could.
Don’t give them even more ideas.
So… what does blaspheming against evil mean?
What would be the best term to accurately describe that?
Heroism?
Toxic positivity has never caused any problems … 🙄
You know, when people start throwing around words like “blasphemy” it really sounds like a cult.
He is delusional
“Eggs do not lay eggs, the goose lays the eggs,” he said. “SoftBank Group is the factory that lays the eggs.”
So… is it the goose or the factory that lays the eggs? This is a bad, confusing analogy.
