Hot off the Net

The Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, has written the rules for a game Australia doesn’t play, yet.

21 July 2026 Give credit where it’s due. This is a Prime Minister who understands that AI is the industrial revolution of our time, and that Australia’s geography, climate, minerals, universities and stable democracy give us real leverage. He’s right that we cannot renegotiate the terms after the data centres are built. He’s right that social licence must be earned now, not retrofitted later.

So, what’s the problem?

Here’s our take: Australia just announced world-leading rules for a game we don’t yet play. We have written the referee’s handbook but have not yet fielded a team.

Read the speech again. There is an office, a framework, standards, consultations and a National Cabinet agenda. What there isn’t is a commitment to build a single sovereign Australian AI model…

NYT’s Sulzberger condemns AI giants for ‘brazen theft of intellectual property’

21 July 2026 Delivering his opening keynote at WAN-IFRA’s World News Media Congress in Marseille, The New York Times Chairman and Publisher A.G. Sulzberger delivered a scathing assessment of how AI companies are “strip-mining” publishers’ sites and value. His full speech is available here.

Although news publishers’ “original, high-quality content is particularly valuable” for training AI models, the reality is that AI platforms’ “parasitic posture” is undercutting that value, according to Sulzberger.

AI companies – “already among the richest and most powerful in human history” – are carving out an increasingly central role in the public information ecosystem, Sulzberger said. But they are failing to “embrace a core responsibility that comes with that power – to ensure the public has access to trustworthy news and information.”

“Their hijacking of the public square is made possible by the original sin that animates their AI products – a brazen theft of intellectual property that has occurred at an unprecedented scale,“ he said.
