FTI Proposes “Small AI” Strategy to Position Thailand as ASEAN Leader in Application Development
Published
Korn Thiannukul of the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI) presented the “Small AI” strategy at the SWITCH 2026 event in Singapore. He proposed that Thailand should prioritise the development of small-scale artificial intelligence, which refers to AI systems that use fewer resources and can be applied to specific tasks.
During the presentation, Korn also addressed collaboration between the public and private sectors, which he considered essential to developing AI technology in the country. Working together between these two sectors, he said, would make it easier to invest in and adopt AI in business.
The concept falls under the “ASEAN’s No.1” vision, which aims to make Thailand the leader in the ASEAN region in developing AI-powered applications (Application Layer), with a focus on applying the technology in practice across business and various industries.
The presentation offers insight into the direction of Thailand’s AI development in the coming period. However, the news report does not provide further details on action plans, budgets, or implementation timelines. Those interested can continue to follow the progress of these policies and collaborations.
