SoftBank and Nvidia aim to nearly triple Skild AI's valuation by investing over $1 billion in its robot-agnostic AI model technology, reflecting rising interest in AI robotics.
- SoftBank Group Corp. and NVIDIA Corp. are negotiating to invest more than $1,000,000,000 in Skild AI, valuing the company at roughly $14,000,000,000, Reuters reported on December 8, 2025.
- Skild AI, founded in 2023 by former Meta AI researchers, develops universal software as a central "brain" for robots, focusing on foundation models instead of proprietary hardware.
