Chief Justice Sundaresh Menon on 'truth decay' in AI, social media age

Singapore's Chief Justice Sundaresh Menon warns of a growing "truth decay" in society, where people no longer agree on what is objectively true. He added that the courts face a unique challenge amid the age of AI and social media, as their role depends on establishing the truth based on evidence. "If you have a situation where most people believe, rightly or wrongly, they believe that the courts are making their decisions in some other way other than based on trying to discern the truth from the evidence, you have a huge breakdown," he said. #sgnews #singapore Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
