AI for Resilient Supply Chains – Thomas Choy Interview
“AI is unlike humans at all. We haven’t reached a point where AI can replicate human complexity, especially in managing personal lives and relationships.

Technology serves as a supplementary machine rather than a human replacement.” Thomas Choy In August of last year, my former editor and boss, Annie Tai, called for an interview with our company Aratum’s Vice President for Operations, Thomas Choy, in order for me to practice interviewing experts in the supply chain technology field. Annie dropped a…

When it comes to skincare, I am like an incomplete canvas, sometimes left unbothered by its intricacies, and almost always leaning towards the herbal, less-invasive bunch, a myriad mixes of anything I see, or my sister’s unconsumed products due to her sensitive-prone skin. A friend might panic after reading that because I am not getting any younger (I already have age spots on my face).
