Graeme Muller: Tech New Zealand CEO on Labour's AI policy, data centres

Tech New Zealand's hoping AI becomes a hot topic this election as Labour releases its policy on the new technology.  If elected, the party wants stronger regulations on the use of copyright materials, private information, and the energy needed to power data centres.   Labour also wants stronger oversight through an Office of AI and would establish an online safety regulator.  Tech New Zealand chief executive Graeme Muller told Ryan Bridge they've been calling on politicians to focus on AI for the last two elections.  He says this is a technology which will be more impactful than any that's come before, so it's good people are taking it seriously.  LISTEN ABOVE  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
