As Singapore moves toward supporting ageing in place, ensuring the safety of seniors who live independently is becoming increasingly important. One quiet but serious risk is falls at home — incidents that can go unnoticed if a senior is alone and unable to call for help.

Project GUARDIAN, an initiative by Antica Foundation, is tackling this challenge through non-intrusive fall detection technology paired with community support.

On Good Tech, Lynlee Foo speaks to Dixon Lim, Executive Director, Antica Foundation to find out how technology continues to evolve for the future of eldercare innovation in Singapore.

Good Tech: A smarter safety net for seniors living alone

Singapore wants to become a leading global AI hub. But as AI moves rapidly from experimentation into real-world deployment, what happens next for businesses, workers and the economy?

Following Asia Tech x Singapore, Lynlee Foo speaks with Timothy Chin, Assistant Chief Executive (International) at the Infocomm Media Development Authority, about why “AI is no longer optional,” the growing pressure for companies to move beyond AI pilots, and whether Singapore is moving fast enough to stay competitive.

They explore agentic AI, workforce anxiety, OpenAI’s expansion into Singapore, AI governance and the skills workers may now need in an economy increasingly shaped by automation and AI-assisted decision-making. It also examines the reaction to recent comments by the Standard Chartered CEO on “lower-value human capital”, and why many workers still feel uneasy about where AI may be heading.

Viewpoint: “AI is no longer optional”: What comes next for Singapore?

A lost AirPod. A stressed 13-year-old alone in a cab. A family group chat in full meltdown mode. What started as a chaotic Sunday parenting moment turned into a surprisingly uncomfortable question: would AI have handled it better than we did?

On AI & Me, Lynlee Foo explores why AI's response to a panicking child was calmer than anything the family chat produced, and what that means for parents of Gen Alpha kids. Are our children already finding AI easier to listen to than us, especially under stress?

While the experiment isn't about AI replacing parents, it's about something subtler, and maybe more unsettling.

AI & Me: Would your child listen to AI more calmly than you?

This week on Viewpoint Friday, Lynlee Foo takes a step back to connect the dots behind some of Singapore’s biggest stories — from AI investment and booming tech sectors to rising business costs, restructuring and growing pressure on workers.

In Part 1, Song Seng Wun, economic advisor at fintech firm SDAX shares his “bellynomics” perspective on what businesses and consumers are experiencing on the ground, as stories like Gardenia shifting production to Malaysia, rising COE prices and global layoffs raise questions about whether different parts of Singapore’s economy are moving at different speeds.

In Part 2, Ian Tan, generative AI coach and lecturer at Nanyang Technological University’s Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information — discusses how AI is rapidly entering everyday working life, why companies and workers are feeling pressure to adapt, and how people can approach AI without getting overwhelmed.
