Budget debate: MPs welcome AI investments, but warn of its dangers
MPs welcomed the government's S$1 billion investment into the artificial intelligence sector, adding that these efforts will boost economic competitiveness. Still, many were wary of the dangers AI posed. For instance, not everyone would be able to make a transition to adopt such emerging technologies. MPs called for the focus to still be on preparing future generations for an AI-dominated learning environment.
