Nvidia-backed startup CEO urges Japan to push defense AI development
Agencies The top executive of a leading Japanese artificial intelligence startup said the Japanese government should focus more on the development of its own AI technology for defense applications in an increasingly deglobalized world. David Ha, the chief executive of Sakana AI KK, backed by investors such as U.S. chip giant Nvidia Corp, said his company sees growth potential in working with the Japanese government in the defense sector since the country's security environment is becoming severe with 'many adversaries around its neighbors.' 'Not many startups in Japan want to work in (the) defense side and (with) governments,' Ha said at a recent press conference at the Foreign Correspondents' Club of presents 'an opportunity for our company to engage with the governments on developing defense-related solutions using AI,' said the CEO at the Tokyo-based startup known as a unicornan unlisted company valued at more than $1 billion. Technology plays a key role in bolstering information technology infrastructure, and AI is a core part of such technology to make information systems and cyber security more secured and efficient, the former researcher at Google LLC said. Since the United States has become more U.S.-centric, there is a potential for AI to become 'a bargaining chip for other countries,' if its services and models are so powerful, Ha said.
