The show’s first episode focuses on AI and Equity, featuring an interview with Australia’s eSafety Commissioner, Julie Inman Grant, and discussions with leading academics across the AI landscape: Associate Professor Ramona Vijeyarasa from University of Technology Sydney and Dr Juliette Tobias-Webb from Charles Sturt University. The episode explores the complexities and opportunities of championing equitable outcomes in this fast-moving space.
