Australia can harness the tremendous possibilities of Artificial Intelligence with a targeted investment in skills and infrastructure: AI factories for the nation. Tools of scientific enquiry, data analysis, software development and much more, AI covers a huge range of different technologies and use cases.
Australia can act now to secure control of our data and digital systems, as outlined in the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences & Engineering's (ATSE) "Made in Australia: Our AI opportunity" action statement.
Written by ATSE’s expert Fellows, UQ AI Research Network Director Prof. Shazia Sadiq FTSE, and Director of the UNSW AI Institute, Dr Sue Keay, this statement points towards a sovereign AI capability, developed, owned, operated and controlled by the nation.
