#AI is at the heart of polipedia.com.au's analytics. We are very careful and constantly monitor the data on which the AI analytics model depends on. This article clearly sets out the dangers in AI. Dumping AI in the bin is not the answer - embracing it and working with it is. https://lnkd.in/gqpFEXyT

Two facts: 1) Come June 26 Instagram and Facebook will train its AI on your content, and if you are Australian, you have no opt out option. 2) If you want to use Copilot, ChatGPT, Gemini, Meta AI, or any AI assistant, vast amounts of training data are a non negotiable. I much admire the work of Meta AI and their commitment to excellent open source models. These models have to be trained on petabytes (and soon, if not already, exabytes) of data. This data has to come from the people it will be used by if we are to avoid inherently biased, limited, and potentially prejudiced models. But the the way this data is being acquired is concerning to me. I don't mind if this LinkedIn post is used to train a LLM, in fact, I'd encourage it! But what about pictures of my baby cousins? Or art created by my friends? I must say, those options leave a sour taste in my mouth. I encourage you all to be aware of what data of yours is being fed into these models. Currently if you are not in the European Union or certain American States, you have no opt out option. In future, I hope to see negotiations conducted in the legislative space to find law and policy that protects creators, children, and indeed all of us from exploitation, while promoting a healthy innovation culture where open source AI can continue to advance and benefit us all. https://lnkd.in/gnRb4hDa #metaAI #AIpolicy #privacy #meta #AI #machinelearning #Llama2 #Llama3 #Gemini #chatGPT #GPT5 #AIsaftey #AIethics

I just had my first go at Meta.AI and asked the question "how many Australian CRC have been funded in the past 30 years", and it gave me a link to this document (see below). I have been looking for such a list for years. So, since 1992 there have been 238 CRC's - and I have been involved in a few of them: CAST, CMTE, Mining3, IMCRC. Given that on average each CRC costs about $40M - this equates to over $9B. So thanks to the Department of Industry, Science and Resources and Ed Husic MP for creating this list. It is an important archive of government. The best I could find before this was hosted by EOAS https://lnkd.in/gEHXBuGQ This begs the question, who should be responsible for archiving this data? #nationalDataStrategy #nationalDataArchive

In the midst of budget allocation challenges, it's crucial to reflect on strategic decisions for the future. Australia's recent budget choices highlight significant disparities in investment, with $56 million designated for Reproductive assistance juxtaposed against a $22 billion commitment to the "made in Australia" fund, alongside a notable surge in Aged Care expenditure. These allocations, coupled with declining migration intake, raise concerns about the sustainability of Australia's financial trajectory over the next decade and beyond. The necessity of prioritizing national defense is undeniable, yet the lack of emphasis on large-scale digital transformation within the SME sector is a noteworthy omission. Rather than conventional investments, there's a compelling argument for equipping SME owners with AI capabilities to enhance productivity and adapt to evolving economic landscapes. With declining birth rates impacting employment and tax revenues, accelerating automation and digitalization becomes imperative to bolster Australia's productivity, which has been on a downward trend for years. As we navigate these complex dynamics, it's evident that fostering innovation and efficiency through digital transformation is pivotal for Australia's economic resilience. The evolving landscape underscores the pressing need for proactive measures to address productivity challenges and steer the country towards sustainable growth amidst changing demographic and economic realities. #distiai #productivity #budget #digitalchange #transformation #challenges

Australians are encouraged to make good choices about when and how we share our personal information… but how can we do that if companies like Meta take the choice away from us? If you’re a Facebook or Instagram user in Europe, you’ll have more autonomy than someone in Australia about whether and how Meta can use your data to create their next generation of AI products and tools. Why? Because Meta must respect Europe’s stronger privacy laws. This matters on its own terms. It’s also Exhibit #4783 of why we need the Federal Government to make good on their commitment to introduce a bill to strengthen and modernise Australia’s privacy legislation by August. Australians currently have flimsier privacy protections than people in other parts of world. This must be fixed. Great to speak with David Swan about this important issue

What is #AI? We've put our CSIRO heads together with our colleagues from Google and together produced this video to explain - to the best of my knowledge, we're the first ones using a Koala wearing three thongs to explain AI bias... If you like what we did, also have a look at WIRED's version of answering this question in their infamous 'XX expert explains YY in 5 levels of difficulty' series - here is their 'Computer Scientist Explains Machine Learning in 5 Levels of Difficulty' segment: https://lnkd.in/gzfy7APd Check out their other episodes as well - they're absolutely awesome. It is so hard to explain something complex with few words to different audiences. https://lnkd.in/gQN94-SC

Great result by the Kiwi SaaS community In 2023 New Zealand’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) sector earned $3.6b in revenue. It has been growing revenue by a 15 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) since 2016, and at this rate it is on track to earn $9.7b by 2030. By 2030 the report estimates that SaaS export-led added value will be growing faster and contributing more nominal GDP ($4.5b) than New Zealand’s top three primary sector industries (horticulture, dairy product manufacturing and meat product manufacturing). Since 2016 SaaS exports have been growing at an inflation adjusted rate of 8.7 percent. This is two and a half times higher than the inflation adjusted CAGR of 3.4 percent that New Zealand’s overall export economy has recorded in the past two decades. Bruce Jarvis, Head of kiwiSaaS, says that the SaaS sector remains an ‘invisible giant.’ “How much the SaaS sector contributes to our economic wealth today, and could do in the future, is only just becoming visible,” says Jarvis.

Xplainable Featured in Business News Australia! Here’s what our founder, Jamie Tuppack, had to say about the current state of AI: "There is so much hype around AI. Let's just focus on some simple implementation of traditional machine learning, and you'll get so much more value. You can do that with explainability." While positioning itself as revolutionary, Generative AI alone is currently distracting a lot of companies from taking advantage of their high-value business domain problems. Combining Generative AI with traditional machine learning is where your organisation can see the most value. If you’re ready to make a start in the ML/AI space or are seeking implementable, valuable solutions, please reach out.

Are you able to answer a few questions on the approach to Generative AI within your New Zealand business? The AI Forum NZ's Working Group on Generative AI is compiling information to produce a living white paper that will be used to help businesses, organisations and the Government understand how New Zealanders can and are using LLMs: https://lnkd.in/g9TQcf37 To capture an accurate picture of how businesses in New Zealand are engaging with Generative AI, we’ve compiled a short questionnaire, covering current or planned use cases, potential benefits, constraints, and concerns. If you, or someone else in your business, can contribute to the questionnaire please get in touch, and I’ll happily provide you with more details. The questionnaire can be easily completed online - and your answers will provide invaluable context and insight.

Everyone's talking about the Data and AI market continuing to strengthen heading into the new FY, which is great news! Here are 3 key insights into the state of Data and AI in 24/25: ➡ Market Growth: The AI market in Australia is projected to keep growing quickly, reflecting a global trend where the industry is expected to grow by around 30%. This growth is driven by the rising adoption of AI across healthcare, finance, and retail (Mordor Intel) (ITPro Today). ➡ Demand for Talent: The demand for AI and ML talent in Australia is continuing tp grow, with more businesses integrating AI into everyday operations. This includes the need for data engineers, data scientists, and AI specialists. The growth in AI adoption is leading to a growing number of job openings and the need for talented engineers (ITPro Today) (Harnham). ➡ Recruitment Challenges: Despite the high demand, there is a talent shortage, making it difficult for companies to find the right candidates. The recruitment process for these roles can be difficult and expensive, emphasising the need for highly specialized recruitment agencies to find the right talent (Harnham). Overall the market looks positive and poised for a strong 24/25 across all sectors. Keen to hear how you see your team keeping up with these challenges in the comments Laura Nailard John Ross

Social Engineering ROBODEBT2.0 Australia's #NDIS Gets a Government App With Blockchain But No Ethics from the what-could-possibly-go-wrong dept. Good news, disabled Australians! You'll be getting an app that will implement a welfare #compliance regime designed by the people who brought you robo-debt. But don't worry, it'll have blockchain. No, this isn't good news at all. What makes it worse is that it's clear the #government wants to extend technology-driven compliance to all Australians, with an emphasis on cracking down on your mistakes, not theirs. Kathryn Campbell, ex Secretary of the Department of #Social Services, says the long-term plan is to have one app for all Commonwealth government services. "One to rule the world," she said, apparently oblivious to how evil that sounds. Senators are already worried that the disability app, intended to be used by participants in the #NDIS to claim expenses against their support plan, will go the way of COVIDSafe: Millions of dollars spent on #technology that doesn't really do the job. The intention was to fix a poor web experience, & allow claims to be made from a mobile device. But instead of simply creating a better website, in 2018, the Digital Transformation Agency (DTA) joined forces with CSIRO's Data61 and the Commonwealth Bank to trial blockchain-based smart money that would magically know whether the expense was legitimate or not. According to the ex CEO of the NDIA, Martin Hoffman, that pilot app has been "very popular and well-received," and the feedback has been "extremely positive." The app will be "fully available in the coming months, first on Google Play and then Apple's app store," he said. "Given the horrendously complex NDIS environment, defective processes and vulnerable people, there needs to be considerable caution in the application of blockchain technology," wrote former NDIS Technology Authority chief Marie J. in a submission to the Parliamentary Joint Standing Committee on the NDIS. "Blockchain in itself -- as with other technology innovations -- does not address fundamental design & human rights issues. Ethics is paramount. The involvement of the #Commonwealth Bank itself raises further ethics issues, given the value of participant data; the size of the market; and the yet to be realized emarket honey pot of data, funds and services."

First public demo with Syntrac.AI at Data Science and Ai Association of Australia | DSAi. While the product is still in a very early stage (idea incepted in March), I'm excited to share it and receive early feedback to push the product in the right direction. Always great to catch up with Chris Barton; who did amazing job raising youth mental health awareness and just finished his 30-hours walk just last week. As Chris has told me with an analogy between AI rush and gold rush, "While many sought to find gold to get rich, the ones who sold shovels made the most money". Syntrac.AI is like a gold refining tool, so come to me if you have already found your gold and want to extract the most out of it ;) Jokes aside, I've just published an open-source mono-repo boilerplate for everyone who is keen to build and ship AI products quickly at https://lnkd.in/gyV5VVcN. Feel free to reach out to me if your company needs help with CI/CD, migration, or you simply want to explore a mono-repo approach. Lastly, big thanks to Annie Liao 🇦🇺, Michael Wang, CFA and Build Club for the demo opportunity. Also appreciate Jonathan Kurniawan and Steve Mao for joining the pilot program with Syntrac.AI. #AI #startups #innovation #Analytics #MLOps #LLM
