We need to go deeper
Sounds awfully Ponzi-esque to me.
Just saying.
It will be interesting to see if all this money going into AI is actually going to payoff.
Sounds like a risky strategy, lets see how that works out for them.
New bailout on the way.
And tax payers will bail them out…
When this bubble pops it’s taking everything with it. So much money involved.
So they can take a massive loan to pay their loans but If I do the same is fraudulent according to my mortgage provider and the government…. Ah yeah very cool.
That just sounds stupid to me.
But then I’m no Masayoshi Son.
God, you’d hope these people would actually take care with whom they invest in. Even putting the technology aside, the company has been managed like a drunk at Oktoberfest.
The circlejerk continues.
Great. So if Nvidia goes down. So does Open AI and then so does SoftBank. Lol. Love it
First of all, that’s [not new](https://www.reuters.com/business/media-telecom/softbank-seeks-up-40-billion-loan-finance-openai-investment-bloomberg-news-2026-03-06/). And Masayoshi Son desperately needs to see the return, so he is pushing every button.
Hike the interest rate
So, a Ponzi scheme..
This shouldn’t even be allowed. They clearly couldn’t afford that AI investment commitment amount
It doesn’t seem that they are worth the money based on their products.
Looks like a hard fall may be coming.
Sounds like a bubble headline
„Softbank pays their credit card bill with another credit card“ /s
they know something i dont know.
FYI in over a year since the announcement of Stargate, the $500B AI joint venture between OpenAI, SoftBank, and Oracle …. they have raised a grand total of $0 for the project.
This loan will be the first funding of a project that was billed as America’s big AI push that fell completely flat. It took SoftBank over a year to get this funding, and it represents only 10% of the overall commitment. Oracle and OpenAI have contributed nothing towards the project.
Any investment is burning money. Commitment means nothing. Just say „nah bro, don’t wanna“ pay any contractual fines for a billion or 2. It’s a huge sum to loose, huge huge huge sum, but it will be far less lost with the billions upon billions lost in the bubble.
