Dr. Leslie Teo explains why convincing Americans and Britons to trust AI will take more than proving it won't turn into Terminator or The Matrix: "If we can show how useful, and we can assure people that AI is not here to either do Terminator or Matrix or anything in between, we have a chance." "AI is just a technology. It’s happening within a certain social and political environment, and that environment requires, in many ways, bigger fixes." "I do think AI done correctly can be a force for good. If we do it correctly, hopefully we can regain trust." @AISingapore

Dr. Leslie Teo predicts AI could turn Singapore into a builder's paradise, where 1-2-person startups can generate millions in revenue without VC funding: "For centuries, Singapore has not been the place where you build things. We did have shipyards, we did have factories for a short while, but we are a small country. It’s hard to scale when you have physical limitations." "My dream is AI can make Singapore a builder’s paradise. We don’t have that limitation anymore." "We are very good at getting the multinational to come here to build the sales force, to build the corporate structure, but we don’t build the product here. I look at Silicon Valley somewhat envious. You guys build companies, you build things that don’t exist." "Today we have one, two-person companies. They don’t need VC funding. They are hitting million-dollar revenues. AI is making this possible." @AISingapore

Dr. Leslie Teo explains how AI could help Singapore tackle labor shortages caused by one of the world's lowest fertility rates: "I shouldn’t be overenthusiastic and say every problem can be solved by AI. Humans, we like to work. I like to work. But perhaps this gives more time for other things in life, as we have more AI do the boring routine stuff." "If it gives us a bit of confidence that we can bring kids up and they can have a good life, hopefully the fertility rate will go up." "But this is a big problem in Singapore. It’s been 30 or 40 years of trying to move the fertility rate. It is a challenge that we are shrinking. We can help that by having immigration, but there are also limits to it." "If you come to Changi, the main airport in Singapore, almost all the toilets are being cleaned by robots with AI. That’s a job that humans maybe don’t wanna do so much." @AISingapore
