(BSS/AFP) - Japanese tech investor SoftBank will spend some 75 billion euros ($87.5 billion) on artificial intelligence infrastructure in France, its founder Masayoshi Son told a French newspaper in an interview released Saturday.

"This will be the largest investment in Europe in infrastructure related to artificial intelligence: 75 billion euros in total," Son told La Tribune Dimanche weekly ahead of a French investment conference hosted by President Emmanuel Macron.

He said it included 45 billion euros to be spent by 2031 on data centres in the Hauts-de-France region of northern France.
