SoftBank Group Corp founder Masayoshi Son is considering an investment of up to $100 billion in France, including a multibillion-dollar project to build AI infrastructure in the European nation, Bloomberg News reported on Monday. Companies have been channeling billions into data centres to power generative AI services. OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank announced in September last year plans for five U.S. AI data centres for the $500 billion Stargate project, a plan to build a nationwide advanced AI network.
