Singapore, Germany to expand industrial AI cooperation as part of updated 5-pillar work plan
At a joint press conference with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, who is on an official visit to Singapore, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said that there is “much more” both countries can do together under their strategic partnership.
Singapore and Germany have agreed to expand their cooperation in industrial artificial intelligence (AI) as part of an updated five-pillar work plan, according to Prime Minister Lawrence Wong and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz during a joint press conference. The strategic partnership between the two nations covers security, trade, and energy, and includes initiatives aimed at deepening economic collaboration, military-to-military cooperation, and energy development.
The updated joint work plan, which was agreed upon in November 2024, aims to leverage the strengths of both countries in industrial AI, which involves the application of machine learning, computer vision, and autonomous systems to physical operations and supply chains. Both countries recognize the potential of AI to create new opportunities for businesses and workers while addressing the new risks and challenges it poses.
