SINGAPORE: Singapore must cultivate a new generation of robotics and artificial intelligence talent to stay ahead in an increasingly automated world, said National Robotics Programme (NRP) executive director Tung Meng Fai. This push comes as the country positions itself to secure a share of the global robotics landscape, where engineers, researchers and creators will play critical roles. “There's a strong demand now for robotics expertise,” Mr Tung told CNA last Thursday (Nov 27).  “Increasingly with AI in robotics, we also need cross-disciplinary talent, so this talent pipeline is important to fuel the growth of our ecosystem here in Singapore.” The International Federation of Robotics estimates that the global installation of industrial robots will reach 708,000 by 2028 – a 30 per cent increase from 542,000 last year.    https://www.channelnewsasia.com/singapore/robotics-artificial-intelligence-tech-talent-singapore-labour-manpower-competition-jobs-5499491   (ICE SINGAPORE)
