Research Australia response to the “Introducing mandatory guardrails for AI in high-risk settings: proposals paper”

The Australian Government’s interim response to the Safe and Responsible AI in Australia discussion paper sought views on:
• the proposed guardrails
• how they are proposing to define high-risk AI
• regulatory options for mandating the guardrails

Research Australia’s submission was informed by the previous work of Research Australia, including its response to the consultation by the Department of Industry, Science and Resources on Safe and Responsible AI in Australia in 2023. Research Australia’s submission is attached here.

Research Australia responds to MRFF priorities and Act Review

Research Australia participated in consultations for the MRFF Australian Medical Research and Innovation Priorities and the MRFF Act Review. We were invited to a round table hosted by AMRAB, and provided a written submission. We recognised many positive enhancements have been suggested in the draft priorities for 2022-24. Our main concern was the lack of cohesion that links all the priorities to drive transformation across the entire health and medical research and innovation ecosystem.
