Singapore’s financial and critical-infrastructure leaders have reached a tipping point. The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) dragging chief executives into a focused conversation is not a bureaucratic checkbox; it’s an alarm bell. Recent revelations about advanced AI models — notably Anthropic’s Mythos Preview and rapidly improving open-source alternatives — areContinue Reading
Germany’s announcement of a spying probe into Signal phishing attacks should be treated not as distant political theatre but as an urgent alarm bell for every organisation — including small and medium enterprises in Singapore.

Tokyo has moved with deliberate force: a task force will be formed to confront the immediate risks that Anthropic’s Mythos model poses to the financial system. This is not optional or academic.

Amazon’s latest US$5 billion bet on Anthropic is not just a headline. It is a tectonic shift that demands action from every Singapore SME that plans to use, rely on, or resell AI-powered services.
