Singapore announced that the AI-driven Intelligent Driving Circuit will be rolled out at SSDC in 2028, allowing learners to take the wheel on a controlled circuit without a human instructor in the car.

The system uses image-recognition AI to analyse driver behaviour and vehicle status, offering objective feedback and potentially reducing dependence on human trainers.

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks to William Lee, Robotics & Embodied AI Scientist-Engineer, Stealth AI, to discuss whether this marks a new era for driver training and if AI can match the judgement and nuance of a human instructor.

APAC’s wealth market is expanding faster than anywhere else, yet growth is outpacing the ability to manage it.

Investors are becoming more sophisticated, portfolios are increasingly complex, and expectations are shaped by everyday consumer technology.

Despite this momentum, large segments remain underserved, with 40-45% of assets still held in cash.

On The Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to James Verner, Head of Aladdin Wealth Tech APAC at BlackRock, about what is holding wealth management back across the region and what needs to change to move investors from cash into meaningful portfolio conversations.

On What’s Trending, Hongbin Jeong and Nadiah Koh take you from out-of-this-world luxury to high-stakes online chaos. First, we explore the mind-boggling concept of a Moon hotel, where a five-night stay will set you back over S$10 million.

Then we pivot back to Earth with a look at the new Chinese video game “Blood Money: Lethal Eden”, where players are forced into the shoes of a scammer trapped in a compound. It’s a game about moral choices, survival, and confronting ethical dilemmas, inspired by real-life scam operations in Southeast Asia.

From lunar luxury to online moral chaos, we ask the big questions: Would you pay millions for a Moon getaway? Would you betray a stranger to survive?
