On 8world (Channel 8 News), Professor Anthony Tung from NUS Computing provided expert insights in an SG60 segment that examined how technology has transformed Singapore's society over the past six decades, from early office automation to the rapid rise of artificial intelligence (AI).
Representing academia, Professor Tung commented on the future direction of AI, emphasising the potential of AI systems to unlock collective potential by connecting people across disciplines, enabling lifelong learning beyond a single field of expertise.
The segment also noted that while AI adoption is accelerating across industries, it is not a panacea, highlighting the need for continued exploration and thoughtful application to meaningfully improve lives.
