# MINIMAX-W Founder Increasingly Confident of Achieving USD1B ARR Target by Yr-end

MINIMAX-W (00100.HK) -12.200 (-3.496%) Short selling $621.34M; Ratio 6.668% Co-founder Yeyi Yun said enhancing the intelligence of large AI models is the company's top priority rather than broad adoption, and she is becoming increasingly confident of achieving the company's target of USD1 billion in ARR by year-end.

She said the milestone for artificial general intelligence (AGI) would be defined by the capability to generate 1% of global gross domestic product. If AI can autonomously generate 1% of global GDP, it would likely have reached the AGI stage.
