SoftBank seeks $100bn from Gulf investors for AI push

Original: SoftBank seeks $100B from Gulf investors to expand AI bet

SoftBank is reportedly looking to raise $100 billion from investors in the Gulf to bankroll an expansion of its artificial intelligence investments. The Japanese group, led by Masayoshi Son, has been reshaping its portfolio around AI, and sovereign wealth funds in the region are among the few sources of capital on that scale.

Why now: The scale of the proposed raise and SoftBank's high-profile AI strategy make it a major story for tech and finance watchers.
