Singapore has announced plans to work with Google Cloud to drive the country’s research and competencies in artificial intelligence (AI). Both sides also will work on issues pertaining to AI governance and ethics.
The pact between Smart Nation and Digital Government Group’s (SNDGG) National AI Office and Google Cloud is pitched as the Singapore government’s first private-sector AI partnership with a global technology vendor.
The agreement comprises three areas in which the two partners will collaborate, spanning research and development (R&D), competency development, and AI ethics.
