Revealed: The Extent of AI Inside Australian Government
Artificial intelligence is widely used inside the Australian government but rarely disclosed, a new investigation has revealed.
SBS reported the extent of AI deployment across federal agencies. Many systems affect decisions about citizens, yet the public is seldom told when AI is involved.
The findings echo concerns worldwide. In the US, a lawsuit over the Army’s use of AI in contract awards could force more transparency around how proposals are evaluated.
New laws are starting to bite. In California, a new law forces AI makers to disclose their disaster plans.
The Australian revelations add to pressure for governments everywhere to publish registers of where AI is used in public services.
Federal News Network reported a lawsuit over the Army’s use of AI in contract awards. The Atlantic warned America is not ready for what AI will do to jobs.
CalMatters reported new disclosure rules for AI makers. Policy Alternatives published a citizen’s guide to AI in government services.
