Bank of Japan Deputy Governor UCHIDA said AI adoption could have both positive and negative effects on productivity and the labor market.

SoftBank Group CEO Masayoshi Son, long a prominent AI proponent, warned of safety risks as machine capabilities accelerate and urged international cooperation. Speaking alongside White House tech policy adviser Michael Kratsios at a Science and Technology in Society forum in Kyoto, Son said the exponential rise in AI makes it necessary for countries to build mutual trust to jointly steer the technology, adding “we no longer have the luxury of humans fighting each other.” He urged cooperation to control greater threats from powerful AI models and warned that superintelligence in the hands of bad actors could be “super dangerous.” Son’s unusually cautious tone follows mounting concern after recent safety glitches in AI models.
