Anthony Albanese’s office signed off on language in a bipartisan letter from a parliamentary committee considering AI policy before it was sent to the prime minister, a move which committee member David Pocock said was concerning.
Notes on the letter to Albanese, seen by Guardian Australia, show a senior adviser made multiple edits and wrote “fine” on some content, appearing to approve lines in the letter before the committee wrote to the prime minister on Monday night.
