    #790 ft. Nicholas Ng – Autonomous Vehicles Better Than Human Drivers? SG’s AV Plan Explained

    Driverless vehicles aren’t coming “one day”. They’re already here.Nicholas Ng, Director of the Centre for Autonomous Vehicles at LTA, explains how Singapore is testing and rolling out autonomous vehicles (AV), and how that will enhance future transport options. We cover the AV trials in Punggol (which we personally experienced), as well as the strict safety frameworks behind the scenes. Are AVs actually safer than human drivers? What happens when machines make decisions on the roads? And are we truly giving up control? 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙚𝙥𝙞𝙨𝙤𝙙𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙗𝙮 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙇𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩 𝘼𝙪𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙮 (𝙇𝙏𝘼).

    #787 ft Natalia Goh – Can You Trust a Bank With No Branches? How Has Digital Banking Changed Personal Finance

    Most of us just want banking to be simple: salary comes in, bills go out, and the rest… hopefully grows a bit. But banking has changed so quickly that a lot of people are using new tools without really knowing what’s happening underneath. We talk to MariBank CEO Natalia Goh about how digital banks work, what’s driving renewed interest in gold, and why our money habits in Singapore are shifting in ways that affect ordinary working people.
