Making the most of the AI opportunity: productivity, regulation and data access

Three new research papers from the Australian Productivity Commission.

Policymakers around the world are considering how to best harness the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) for productivity while trying to anticipate and limit any associated risks.

But as AI technology becomes more pervasive and sophisticated, each country is faced with its own unique challenges and opportunities.

In this set of three papers, the Productivity Commission places Australia’s AI opportunity in a global context, to consider how our governments can help to maximise the potential economic benefits of this evolving technology.

Paper 1: AI uptake, productivity, and the role of government, Paper 2: The challenges of regulating AI, and Paper 3: AI raises the stakes for data policy.
