Reset with Lynlee

Singapore wants to build healthcare AI models trained on local patient data, with the aim of improving the early detection and treatment of chronic diseases. But better AI depends on better data. Would you be comfortable letting AI learn from medical data from people like you if it could lead to better healthcare? Lynlee Foo explores the trade-off between medical progress, privacy and trust in today's AI Dilemma.

The recent nursing home cases have raised concerns about care standards, but they also point to a much bigger question. As Singapore becomes one of the world's fastest-ageing societies, what should our eldercare system actually look like? On Viewpoint, Public health specialist and author of Myth Or Magic – The Singapore Healthcare System, Dr Jeremy Lim joins Lynlee Foo to discuss ageing in the community, supporting families, improving quality of life and why the future of eldercare is about much more than nursing homes.  

AImay live in the cloud, but the race to lead the AI economy is unfolding in very real places. As cities around the world compete to attract AI talent, investment and innovation, what sets the leading hubs apart? What is Singapore getting right and could its next phase of growth increasingly depend on the strength of its regional ecosystem? On AI & Me: Eye on AI, Lynlee Foo speaks to Paul Tostevin, Director of Savills World Research, as they explore how AI is reshaping the geography of innovation and what this means for Singapore and the wider Southeast Asian region.

The Skills and Workforce Development Agency presents: Sailing Through Transformation — New Horizons. You may not have heard of Tong Seng, but chances are you've eaten rice that has come through this homegrown business. From sourcing rice from around the world to supplying Asian pantry staples across Singapore, Tong Seng Produce has grown into a trusted name over the past three decades. As the business enters its next chapter, its focus is on balancing tradition with innovation. We explore the leadership behind that journey, from earning the trust of long-serving employees to embracing digitalisation and AI, while staying true to the values that have shaped the company from the very beginning. On Suite Talk, Lynlee Foo speaks to Max Ng, Executive Director of Tong Seng Produce, about what it really means to take over the family business, earn your own credibility, and prepare it for the next generation.

Telecom companies are increasingly bundling premium artificial intelligence tools with mobile plans, marking a shift in how they compete for customers beyond price, data and network coverage. On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks to Nikhil Batra, Senior Research Director, IDC, about what's driving this trend, whether AI is becoming the next key differentiator for telcos, and what it could mean for consumers and the future of the industry.

Companies spend billions trying to keep hackers out. But what happens when one gets in? As attacks move faster and digital systems become more complex, the cybersecurity industry is shifting its focus towards resilience and containment; stopping a breach from spreading before it becomes a crisis. On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks with Raghu Nandakumara, Vice President of Industry Strategy at Illumio, about why effective cyber defence may now depend as much on limiting the damage as preventing the attack.

AI is getting better at more and more of what we do. So if you had five hours a week to invest in yourself, would you spend them getting better at AI, or getting better at being human? On AI Dilemma, Lynlee Foo asks what happens to judgment, empathy and leadership when AI takes over more of the grunt work - and how we develop those skills if the grunt work disappears.

Singapore and Southeast Asia face a heightened risk of severe transboundary haze in the second half of 2026, driven by the return of El Niño, drier weather and mounting economic pressures that could increase forest and peatland fires. The warning comes ahead of the 27th Sub-Regional Ministerial Steering Committee on Transboundary Haze Pollution in Bali, where regional leaders will discuss efforts to prevent another major haze episode. On Viewpoint, Lynlee Foo speaks to Evelyn Tan, Assistant Director, Policy Programmes at the Singapore Institute of International Affairs (SIIA), about what the meeting hopes to achieve, whether Southeast Asia is better prepared for a high-risk haze season, and what stronger regional cooperation will take to tackle the problem at its source.

Searching the internet used to mean typing keywords into a search engine. Today, more people are turning to AI assistants for quick, conversational answers instead. As generative AI changes the way we search for information, what determines which businesses, brands and sources appear in those answers? And what does this shift mean for companies trying to stay visible online? On AI & Me, Lynlee Foo explores how AI is reshaping search, online discovery and digital communications with Jeff Hicks, Chief Product & Technology Officer at PR Newswire.

Long commutes remain a reality for many Singapore residents, with people living in towns such as Sembawang, Bukit Panjang and Punggol spending the most time travelling to work, while those in central areas enjoy significantly shorter journeys. As new data highlights where commuters are most affected, it also raises broader questions about how we define accessibility beyond just travel time.  On Viewpoint, Lynlee Foo speaks to Terence Fan, Assistant Professor Strategic Management & Entrepreneurship, Singapore Management University, about what these findings reveal about the daily commuting experience in Singapore and whether being a "10-minute walk" from an MRT station means the same thing for everyone.
