Globe Telecom Inc. said on Friday that the Philippines’ biggest opportunity in artificial intelligence lies in investing in its people, which could drive long-term economic growth. According to BusinessWorld, the company emphasized the importance of human talent in the AI era.

Derick Omar Adil, Globe’s head of AI, said the country has always been known for its people. 'Our people are capable, collaborative, probably adaptable as well,' he added.

The statement comes as businesses worldwide explore AI integration. Globe’s focus on human capital highlights a strategy where technology complements rather than replaces workers.
