Jim Chalmers' newest economic friend is AI

Politics Now

About this episode

Treasurer Jim Chalmers has a message for working Australians: “treat AI as an enabler, not an enemy”.His comments come following a Productivity Commission report cautioning against heavy-handedness on regulating AI in the workplace - but will lay-off fears from unions win public sentiment on the right way forward?It all comes as submissions continue to roll in for what the focus should be for the Treasurer's National Economic Reform Roundtable, now just a fortnight away. 

Patricia Karvelas and David Speers break it all down on Politics Now.
