Sony AI

Unleash Human Imagination and
Creativity with AI

Our Mission
AI for Imagination & Creativity

We believe in researching and developing AI to further empower the imagination and creativity of artists, makers and creators around the world.

Our aim is to advance AI so that it works in harmony and to augment human capabilities to achieve greater things, not to replace humans for greater efficiency.

Our Values
Diversity, Transparency & Social

We believe that extraordinary innovation requires diversity in people and methods; that AI should be developed and deployed in a responsible, fair, and transparent way; and that all technology should serve social good.

Flagship Projects

  • Gaming
  • Imaging & Sensing
  • Gastronomy

The research and development of AI will be driven through agile world-class AI Flagship Projects that will evolve AI in both the virtual and physical space.

Sony AI will initially launch with 3 Flagship Projects, but other projects will be added over time.

These research will be pursued in close collaboration with the relevant Sony Group business units, such as Gaming and Imaging and Sensing businesses.

The Team

Sony AI is lead by world-class AI researchers and engineers, and is eager to work with top AI talents across the globe who believes in our mission. We have plans to open offices in Japan, US and Europe.
