The business landscape in Southeast Asia is booming, with innovation at its core. But in this fast-paced environment, companies are constantly searching for that next big edge. What if the answer wasn't just another talented hire, but leveraging the power of Gen AI to unlock new creative possibilities?
In this episode, we take a deep dive into the exciting intersection of Gen AI and creative innovation for businesses across Southeast Asia. We'll move beyond the headlines about AI replacing jobs and explore how AI is actually augmenting human creativity and generating fresh ideas in fields that were once considered purely artistic.
We'll also provide a holistic view of the latest adoption and hiring trends within Southeast Asia, discussing how businesses across the region are integrating AI into their teams and the skills they're looking for in the new AI-powered workforce.
