Is our AI education intelligent enough?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the new black in Singapore, with the city-state forging ahead to seal its status as an AI hub in the region. Just last year, a national AI programme was unveiled by the National Research Foundation (NRF) to "grow the knowledge, create the tools and develop the talent to power Singapore's AI efforts" [1]. In addition, the NRF has also announced plans to pump in US$107 million for the project over the next five years. A recent research from Accenture found that AI could nearly double Singapore's annual economic growth rates by 2035[2]. The plans by the government are hence unsurprising as AI is deemed the next generation technology that will power Singapore's growth. However, Singapore is not the only nation putting an emphasis on AI.
