Diversity, Transparency & Social Good
We believe that extraordinary innovation requires diversity in people and methods; that AI should be developed and deployed in a responsible, fair and transparent way; and that technology should serve social good.
Pursing Grand Challenges Through Unique Flagship Projects
Sony AI has a growing research portfolio that includes unique and exciting Flagship Projects in the areas of Imaging & Sensing, Gaming, Ethics, Scientific Discovery, Robotics, and Content Creation.
At the forefront of each flagship project is a "Grand Challenge." These ambitious, high-profile initiatives embody our commitment to groundbreaking research and innovation. These projects tackle audacious possibilities, demonstrate our expertise, and strive to make a substantial impact on industry solutions and major business objectives. Often undertaken in collaboration with Sony business units, Grand Challenges are strategically significant, large-scale endeavors that serve as prominent representations of our mission and values.
Our work is inspired by the innovation and market leading vision from across Sony businesses.
Its PlayStation business is number one in the console gaming business and connects millions of users with game creators around the world. Sony has a strong global presence in Music, Movies, and Electronics. Currently Sony is the world’s leader in image sensing, supplying CMOS image sensors to camera and mobile phone manufacturers around the world.
