QUOTE OF THE DAY

“As AI is fundamentally driven by data, we need to expedite and incentivize the methods of collecting and sharing data, safely and securely, across boundaries. This involves improving sensor technology and data collection methods, and finding easier ways to share data once it’s collected.”

—Michael Zeller, head of AI Strategy and Solutions at Temasek, on what can be done to accelerate AI in the transition to net zero in “How AI can assist in Asia’s net-zero transition”
