could lead to many jobs becoming obsolete, Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has his own positive take — that AI models like ChatGPT can help to enhance inclusivity. This is provided workers get help in adapting to the new technology.

Home Affairs and Law Minister K Shanmugam was also present at a panel on plurality, where he touched on how political plurality may not necessarily be effective for a small nation like Singapore. SkillsFuture is a national movement that aims to provide Singaporeans with training and upskilling opportunities.

"I know some robots can do some interactions to keep the aged active, but it's different from human touch," he said."So, the high-touch , involving the care industry, will get a premium over time."During the panel discussion on pluralism, Mr Shanmugam spoke about the prospect of political pluralism in Singapore, in response to one of the other panel speakers, Ms Zuraidah Ibrahim, the executive managing editor of the South China Morning Post.

Responding to her, Mr Shanmugam said that it is not the incumbent People's Action Party that decides the current structure of Parliament, but the people who vote. He added that while the prospect of political pluralism may seem like an attractive proposition as more viewpoints are shared in Parliament, he has yet to come across any country, outside of Scandinavia, that has successfully made political pluralism work for its citizens.
