Group, announced that it would join the AI competition to develop ChatGPT-like tools, prompting a number of AI-related Japanese companies to rise sharply in the stock market on Thursday, Bloomberg reported.

Junichi Miyagawa, CEO of Softbank Corp., said at a briefing on Wednesday that the department set up a new entity in March this year and selected about 1000 people to develop a Japanese version of OpenAI's artificial intelligence chat technology.
