Detailed Notes
In 2014, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced the Smart Nation Initiative as a whole-of-nation strategic framework for digital transformation. Core goals: use digital technology to improve citizens' lives, create more economic opportunities, and build more tightly connected communities. Although not an AI-specific policy, it provided the institutional and policy foundation for subsequent AI strategies.
