COLLABORATION WITH EDUCATION SECTOR
To build AI talent, OpenAI will collaborate with Singapore’s education sector on building programmes and research partnerships.
“These hands-on workshops under a Singapore chapter of the OpenAI Academy, our online training platform, as well as Codex for Teachers hackathons, help ensure AI is developed in a teacher-led, responsible and equitable way,” said OpenAI and MDDI.
OpenAI will also continue collaborating with IMDA and AI Singapore (AISG) under the AIxTech programme to build AI fluency among tech professionals.
This includes providing access to OpenAI’s Codex to enable hands-on training with AI tools, augmenting online exercises in AIxTech with optional modules, and participating in community efforts such as contributing e-resources and leading expert-led sessions on their AI stack.
OpenAI will also launch a forward-deployed engineer programme in Singapore to train mid-career software engineers in building real-world AI systems, helping develop a pipeline of specialised AI deployment talent.
“We’re excited to partner with Singapore as it builds on its position as a global leader in AI,” said OpenAI chief revenue officer Denise Dresser.
