NTT Data Malaysia's MD Henrick Choo argues that Malaysian enterprises risk being outcompeted if they don't invest in AI, even if ROI is uncertain. He notes Malaysian firms lag Singapore by ~2 years in AI adoption, but spending continues, with NTT targeting 20% growth. He also stresses Malaysia's need to develop higher-quality AI and cloud engineers to capture global opportunities.

Google UK's Economic Impact Report argues that widespread AI adoption could boost UK productivity by over £400 billion by 2030, but requires a national push in skills training, especially for SMEs and public services. The report highlights practical tools like AI-powered assistants and free training programs to democratize access.

Why: The report's emphasis on practical, accessible AI tools and free training mirrors the upskilling needs of Malaysia's own SME-heavy economy. It provides a blueprint for how local developers and founders can leverage similar 'AI trailblazer' initiatives to drive productivity without needing deep ML expertise.
