How government planned to flog the idea that cost slashing to the NDIS was actually a good thing. They tested it through user testing groups and decided to spend millions on doing media and trotting round the countryside selling cuts. Cannot actually make this up. Holy shit.

Growing reliance on #AI and automated systems has increased #Poverty, #Inequity, #Discrimination and #Marginalisation. Georgia van Toorn shows us how, and warns #Labour not to fall under the spell of AI hype and watch out for its risks and unaccountability. ow.ly/805T50Sq296

Excited to be here in the UK for #SPAconf2024 having just published this piece w Lina Dencik, Joanna Redden & Jess Brand about Labour's reliance on AI to address poverty. Labour is promising change, but tech fixes only offer more of the same @AdmsCentre Data Justice Lab

Troubled by the turn to algorithms in #NDIS decision-making, I teamed up with Jeni Lee to tell the stories of those most impacted. The first community screening of ‘I Am Not A Number’ is tomorrow in Melbourne/Naarm. Everyone welcome! admscentre.org.au/event/i-am-not… @AdmsCentre

The Chancellor of University of Canberra is Lisa Paul, who Bill Shorten hired to co-author the NDIS review. Now he’s about to be Vice-Chancellor, hired by panel led by the Chancellor Lisa Paul.
