Microsoft makes push for AI adoption in Singapore in areas from firefighting to healthcare

SINCE September, doctors at SingHealth institutions have been spending more time with patients and less on administrative tasks, thanks to a generative artificial intelligence (AI) tool called Note Buddy.

The tool, which summarises patient records and transcribes conversations in real-time, was developed in collaboration with Microsoft under its AI Pinnacle Programme.

The programme, launched in March, aims to drive AI adoption in Singapore by creating customised, industry-specific solutions for large organisations.
