David Pocock concerned senior Albanese adviser ‘vetted’ bipartisan AI letter that was sent to PM

Australian senator David Pocock has raised concerns that a senior adviser to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese reviewed a bipartisan letter on artificial intelligence before it reached the PM. Pocock suggested the process could compromise the letter’s independence. In response, the committee chair rejected claims that the government had predetermined the content, insisting the letter remained autonomous.
