Think about the last time you looked up a doctor online. Maybe you checked their credentials, read a few patient reviews, or noticed that they had answered hundreds of questions on a health Q&A platform – carefully, patiently, and in plain language. It probably made you feel more confident about seeing them.

If you’ve ever used ChatGPT and felt that something sounds right, but you’re not entirely sure if it actually is, you’re already thinking about the kind of problems Prof Anji works on. He studies machine learning, focusing on generative AI. But his work is not about making these systems more impressive. It’s about making them more reliable, getting them to follow logic and constraints, not just patterns. Because those two things are still far apart.

The next time you search for a flight and watch the price jump $200 overnight, you might feel like the system is rigged against you. And you wouldn't be alone. Few things irritate travellers quite like the volatility of airline fares, that nagging sense that some algorithm, somewhere, is squeezing every last dollar from your wallet.

In a Straits Times feature on Singapore's national AI strategy, Professor Jungpil Hahn, Provost's Chair Professor at NUS School of Computing and Deputy Director (AI Governance) for AI Singapore, raised an important counterpoint to the enthusiasm surrounding AI adoption: the risk of deskilling.

In a Straits Times feature on Singapore's national AI strategy, Professor Jungpil Hahn, Provost's Chair Professor at NUS School of Computing highlighted a key concern amid the excitement over AI adoption: the potential for deskilling.

Referring to a study published in The Lancet Gastroenterology and Hepatology in August 2025, Prof Hahn observed that clinicians who frequently depended on AI to detect pre-cancerous lesions gradually lost their ability to identify these growths on their own. This issue goes beyond healthcare, highlighting how professionals in any field might, over time, diminish the very skills AI was designed to enhance.

He suggested setting aside intentional AI-free intervals. "Having explicit days or periods where you know you have to do the task without AI actually forces the institutions, companies or organisations to maintain that capability level," he explained. He also urged organisations to monitor employees' abilities before and after adopting AI – not to restrict the technology, but to make sure human judgment stays sharp.

According to Prof Hahn, the real issue isn’t whether to adopt AI, but how to do so without sacrificing what no algorithm can ever replace.

In a room of 20 computing students, sometimes only three are women. At the NUS School of Computing, women make up 23.7% of undergraduates (AY24/25). The gender ratio remains uneven – a reality that shapes classroom dynamics in subtle yet tangible ways.

You probably don’t even notice it anymore. One moment you’re scrolling through Instagram on your phone, the next you’re clicking a mouse on your laptop to finish a work document. We transition between digital devices with barely a thought. But what if those seemingly small physical differences, like the direct tap of your finger on a touchscreen versus the indirect click of a mouse, are not so small after all?
