“I was genuinely inspired when I came across this speech made by the founder of Sony, Masaru Ibuka, in which he talks about AI as the future of electronics already back in 1960. Sixty years later, we see that the future he envisioned where AI permeates our society in areas such as automotive, medicine, education and business is fast becoming a reality. At Sony AI, we are honored and proud to inherit Ibuka-san’s legacy and to empower human imagination and creativity with AI.”
