Paul Spain: Gorilla Technology CEO on Australia establishing Government AI office

from Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive · host Newstalk ZB

Australia's moving to protect local content, as it pushes through on mandatory AI standards. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has promised to pass legislation by early next year. The protective controls will include barring AI companies using Australian books, music, art or news to build or train AI without the creator's consent and control.  Gorilla Technology CEO, Paul Spain, says he thinks music will be a particular focus. "What they're probably not going to tolerate is music that is too obvious as a rip-off of Australian music, and we would see that across a whole range of areas."  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
