Becoming Human: AI’s Next Evolution

Zany presenter Chua Enlai returns to confront AI’s rapid evolution in an eye-opening two-part journey.

He uncovers AI’s identity threats through voice cloning in Hollywood and deepfake tech in Abu Dhabi and India, examines AI used for public safety in South Korea and the U.S. and experiences groundbreaking AI health tech for wearables, DNA analysis and longevity.

Part Two delves into AI's broader effect on society. Enlai observes AI fact-checking during Taiwan's elections, interacts with political strategists and media researchers in the U.S. using AI, and assesses AI's enhancement of healthcare and education in Southeast Asia and Singapore. He explores AI justice issues, highlighting wrongful detentions and legal aid for the underprivileged. The series culminates in a call for legal, ethical and technical guardrails for AI.
