Singapore leads global AI investment with 27% topping $1.28m: report

This places Singapore ahead of both the United Kingdom (18%) and the United States (14%).

Singapore has emerged as the global leader in high-value artificial intelligence ( AI ) investment, with 27% of businesses allocating more than $1.28m (US$1m) annually to AI initiatives.

This places Singapore ahead of both the United Kingdom (18%) and the United States (14%), according to the latest IT Priorities Research report by Colt Technology Services.

Whilst Japan leads in adoption rates and Hong Kong shows strong mid-level investment, Singapore stands out for the scale and depth of its AI commitment, the report noted.

Much of this momentum is driven by the national $1b AI Strategy 2.0 (NAIS 2.0) and a strong network of public-private partnerships advancing applied innovation.

In addition to AI, Singaporean firms are placing significant emphasis on cybersecurity and operational automation. The Colt study showed 37% of Singapore businesses have made AI a top priority, closely matched by cybersecurity and digital resilience—areas strongly influenced by both policy and enterprise needs.

Supporting these efforts, the Singapore government has committed $500m to high-performance computing resources and more than $20m to develop AI talent, with the goal of tripling the national AI workforce within five years.

“I used ChatGPT to save my relationship, here’s what it did for me”

Image
Our fights used to feel like tense reality TV episodes: action-packed, a little too loud, and downright exhausting. Then one night, feeling a bit on edge, I called on an unexpected ally: ChatGPT. Yes, artificial intelligence. And no, it's not as cold and weird as it sounds. One evening, after yet another argument We've been together for 8 years. The kind of relationship where we finish each other's sentences... and sometimes also get on each other's nerves. Despite the love (still there, I assure you) , communication was becoming more and more... acrobatic. It only took one wrong word for everything to degenerate: poorly worded reproaches, icy silences, sentences we regret barely having said. One evening, the atmosphere was frosty. We had argued—again—over something trivial. I think it was about summer vacation: she wanted the mountains this time, me the sea again, and we found ourselves throwing reproaches at each other about two-year-old issues. You get ...
