Singapore’s workforce trusts AI to drive business more than global average: survey

Gen Z and millennials most likely to use AI tools.

Singaporean workers had the highest usage rate of generative AI across the globe alongside Hong Kong at 60%, according to a survey by UiPath.

The survey showed 58% believe gen AI tools have the necessary context from business data to drive value and improve operations.

Two-thirds of workers in the city-state generally trusted AI outputs, more than the global average of 48%.

Gen AI tools improved the productivity of workers by assisting them with work tasks, which were mainly: drafting communications (44%), summarizing long-form content (34%), and brainstorming (34%).

Despite strong adoption, 42% said their companies have not provided training or set guidelines for gen AI use, showing a lack of direction in company policy.

Major concerns about gen AI were shared by workers to be: security risks (38%); inaccurate outputs (34%); and compliance risks (31%).

The survey consisted of 1,133 full-time Singaporean workers.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
