Expert says Australia’s criminal laws should be clarified to determine how fault is applied to a corporation when its AI agent commits a crime
The federal government could change Australian laws if the current legal framework could not respond to the unprecedented OpenAI hack of Medicare, ministers have confirmed.
On Friday, the government said the review by spy agency, the Australian signals directorate, would consider whether legislative change was needed after the prime minister revealed an artificial intelligence agent developed by OpenAI hacked Medicare’s statistics website and three other systems in June.
