According to foreign media reports, Japan plans to purchase 27,500 next-generation Rubin chips from Nvidia (NVDA.O) to develop domestic basic robot AI models. The newly established company, Noetra, has received a budget of 387.3 billion yen from the government and has stated that it will be responsible for coordinating the project and building a large data center. This plan is part of a series of measures by the Japanese government to reduce dependence on foreign technology and strengthen national security. Noetra plans to release its first AI model by March next year and continue with updates. Noetra President Hironobu Tamba stated that the long-term goal is to launch AI models specifically designed for robot applications in the coming years. Developing domestic physical artificial intelligence models is an important part of Japan's overall strategy to create a global leading artificial intelligence and robotics industry center. The Japanese government aims to capture more than 30% of the global robot market, estimated at around 60 trillion yen, by 2040.
