Singapore miles ahead in depth of technical knowledge: OpenAI research chief

SINGAPORE is well-positioned to reap success in artificial intelligence (AI), according to one of the top minds in the field.

Developers in the city-state have deep technical knowledge, and policymakers here have a level of technical literacy unseen in other parts of the world, said OpenAI’s research chief Mark Chen.

“I mean this very, very seriously – there’s a gap between Singapore and everywhere else,” he told The Business Times in a recent interview.
