消息称 Sakana AI 最早 2027 年秋季 IPO，已委任高盛为顾问

Schmidhuber's argument that only half of his AI vision — autonomous artificial scientists and Physical AI — has reached scale positions these areas as openings for smaller labs rather than Big Tech. Japan is framed as a promising base for that remaining half, giving regional researchers and companies a potential partner outside the US-China duopoly. Teams evaluating non-US foundation models can watch for Sawara Small's 2027 release as an early test of Japan's pretraining capability.

A from-scratch Japanese LLM effort is notable because nearly all frontier models now trace back to a handful of US and Chinese labs, and Sakana argues the next openings lie outside them. Teams tracking model ecosystem diversity, or researchers interested in Japan's AI ambitions, should watch the spring 2027 release and the event videos for technical direction.
