Australia's new industry and science minister, Tim Ayres, emphasizes the necessity of embracing artificial intelligence to establish the nation as a leader in regulatory frameworks. He acknowledges existing skepticism surrounding AI among Australians and asserts the importance of dialogue between employers and employees regarding automation's impacts on the workforce. Ayres indicates that the government will prioritize a strategic approach to AI that benefits both businesses and workers while addressing potential risks. An immediate challenge lies in implementing AI policy based on previous initiatives and learning from similar nations.
Australia must lean in hard to the benefits of artificial intelligence or else risk ending up on the end of somebody else's supply chain.
The minister said Australia had no alternative but to embrace the new technology and seek to become a world leader in regulating and using AI.
