As PM Lawrence Wong mentioned recently, Singapore isn’t trying to outdo leading American frontier models such as those from OpenAI and Anthropic. Does this mean Singapore is willingly letting the global AI race slip by? Not at all. Here’s the thing: AI isn’t just about frontier models; it’s also an enormous ecosystem spanning multiple industries. For frontier models to scale their usefulness, they need an entire hardware ecosystem to back them up. From massive AI compute, to reliable power, advanced chip testing, and precision-engineered equipment, these are the supporting roles that Singapore can offer. They also ensure Singapore’s growth remains connected to the AI secular tailwind – by feeding the AI titans that make these headline-grabbing technologies possible. AEM Holdings (SGX: AWX): The Gatekeeper of High-Performance Silicon Viability Advanced AI chips can only unleash their full capabilities when they are deployed reliably under real world constraints. This is because having to tear down underperforming...
