The Green Party has released AI policy today as part of our general election campaign: https://www.greens.org.nz/ai_policy I’m pretty happy with it. There are some things I’d word differently for a more technical audience, but as something going out to all voters I think it strikes the right tone: “AI” isn’t magic, it’s software made by large, financially unstable overseas companies. Governments can and should regulate it to protect the environment, data sovereignty, and democratic accountability. #NZGreens #NZPol
