Generative AI infiltrates Singapore workplaces

Recent data from Indeed, the leading global matching and hiring platform, show that job opportunities utilising generative artificial intelligence (AI) are increasing. By the end of March, one in every 190 Singapore job postings are related to generative AI. The posting share has almost doubled over the past three months.

“Singapore also appears to have embraced these technologies faster than its global peers. The share of Singapore job postings mentioning GenAI is 4.3 times higher than the United States, 4.7 times higher than the United Kingdom and 6.5 times higher than Australia. It is early stages but Singapore may be establishing itself as a hub for GenAI expertise,” said Callam Pickering, APAC senior economist at Indeed.

Pickering said, “While we are clearly very early in the emergence of these tools, particularly as they relate to job creation, this will be a trend to watch closely over the months and years to come.”
