“Must eat Halal? Cannot mix utensils? Why liddat?”

We took to the streets with @halalsg to find out non-Muslims’ burning questions about Halal food.

'Why Liddat?' is a series by Lepak Conversations inviting non-Malay/Muslims to share their “don’t know if can ask” questions about culture and hot topics that concern Malay/Muslims in Singapore.

Curious to know more? Follow @halalsg for all things halal.

A glimpse into our second AI & Budaya session by Lepak Conversations x Lorong AI! 💻

Our participants got hands-on, exploring the possibilities and limits of using AI to preserve and document our culture. We discussed having an ecosystem and safe space for the Malay/Muslim community to explore and tinker with AI, and had an insightful session filled with new perspectives on the role of AI in cultural preservation.

A big thank you to Shariff and Son Le for sharing their insights, and to Mendaki (@mendakisg) for sponsoring the food!

Thank you to everyone who joined us and made this session a meaningful one. by @lepakconversations
