Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said that artificial intelligence (AI) can improve productivity in cities with labour shortages like Singapore, at a dialogue organised by the Singapore Press Club on June 8.

“We can harness AI well to really transform processes and operations to become far more productive. And in a city like Singapore, where we are always labour short – you talk to companies and employers, they are always looking for people, and we cannot afford to just keep importing labour,” he said.
