IN THE race to harness artificial intelligence (AI), Asean stands at a crossroads: Act collectively now, or risk leaving billions in potential economic value – and millions of citizens – behind.
With South-east Asia’s digital economy projected to reach US$1 trillion by 2030, AI offers far more than technological progress. It is a catalyst for digital transformation, deeper regional integration and community uplift across one of the world’s most culturally diverse and economically dynamic regions.
To harness this potential, Asean must forge deep public-private partnerships that unite government vision with industry innovation, creating an integrated AI ecosystem where member states at every level advance together.
