23% of workers trust employer to act in best interest in AI rollout: Survey
A new survey shows only 23% of Singapore employees trust their employer to act in their best interest when introducing AI at the workplace. Minister of State for Digital Development and Information Jasmin Lau says companies need to better demonstrate how AI can actually be used to deliver value. She adds that firms should start by identifying real business pain points, instead of rolling out AI for its own sake. The survey conducted by tech company Accenture also found more than 80% of entry-level workers have a poor understanding of skills like prompt engineering - despite high usage rates. The same survey found that AI is not wiping out entry‑level jobs but rather, it’s changing them. It shows that entry-level roles now require stronger AI fluency. We spoke with Grace Yip, Managing Director at Accenture Singapore (Strategy & Consulting) for her insights.
