Our phones unlock at the sight of our faces; Google knows what we’re looking for; and our email finishes our sentences with uncanny accuracy. Generative AI and Large Language Models have taken the world by storm, with technology showing tremendous potential to automate various day-to-day tasks.

In line with that, Singapore is positioning AI as a key growth engine with an additional S$1 billion investment in support of its National AI Strategy 2.0. However, the need for a robust pool of AI talent is often a roadblock for organisations looking to hop on the AI bandwagon.

On this episode of Morning Shot, Laurence Liew, Director for AI Innovation at AI Singapore shares more about the recently launched AI Apprenticeship Programme Foundation which has been specially designed to equip aspiring AI engineers with the essential AI and software engineering knowledge and skills required for this rapidly evolving field.

Morning Shot: Nurturing seeds of growth for Singapore's AI ecosystem

Singapore education group MindChamps made history recently as the first to secure patent protection for its methodology across three major territories: the US, the UK, and Australia.

Its approach revolves around a core belief: that the key to unlocking a child’s potential lies in the intersection of five literacies - Numerical, Language, Social, Emotional, and Musical.

Hence, unlike traditional education, where each subject is neatly compartmentalised into its own silo, this methodology draws on the shared concepts between them, with the aim of drawing a synergy which helps to amplify learning across the board.

On this episode of Breakfast Special, David Chiem, Founder CEO & Executive Chairman, MindChamps shares more about their research-based methodology.
