Weekly Wrap: Regulating AI, Tassie's political turmoil, and a vigilante parrot

This week, the Productivity Commission released an interim report that's thrown fuel on the fire of the debate around AI and copyright law. We'll get into what's being proposed and why it's got creatives and media companies up in arms. We also cover off where a Putin-Trump meeting is up to, Tassie's new (and maybe temporary) government, and Tourism Australia's new ad campaign. In what's coming up, the 80th anniversary of the end of WWII, the Reserve Bank considers interest rates, and Beijing hosts the world's first World Humanoid Robot Games.
