“You're missing a chance if you wait,” Marcos told reporters here on Saturday evening, Nov. 1. “Al is going to come. Parang alon ‘yan, eh. Kahit anong gawin mo, mababasa ka,” he added.

The President said the Philippines must quickly learn how to use AI “in the best, secure, and benevolent way” to serve the public, warning that failure to adapt could leave the country behind.
