As AI tools advance, workers all over the world are fearful the technology will displace workers and replace jobs. But Singapore looks at AI not as a threat to its workforce, but an opportunity. On GZERO World, Singapore’s President Tharman Shanmugaratnam frames AI as an accelerated version of a challenge the island state has always faced: adapting early to technological change. Because Singapore is small, open, and digitally-advanced, it will feel disruption from AI sooner than most. But that same exposure is also an advantage. The real test, Shanmugaratnam argues, is ensuring productivity gains from AI are shared across the workforce.
