The Federal Court has ordered a sacked senior HR manager to pay his former employer $45,000 in costs on a party-basis, after it rejected his AI-infected, meritless, "doomed to fail" bid for a judicial review of two FWC rulings.
Treasury's latest intergenerational report, released this afternoon, predicts Australia will have a far older working-age population in the 2060s, while artificial intelligence is expected to help achieve its long-term productivity growth assumptions.
Thomas Costa says his first priority as the new leader of Unions NSW will be campaigning against One Nation's "anti-worker" and "incredibly offensive" policies in the lead-up to the State election in March next year.
A FWC member has traversed recent case law during a conference at which she reminded practitioners of the "regulatory consequences" for breaching professional obligations in their use of generative artificial intelligence.
Early educators guaranteed 15% pay rise; "De-escalation" training for parliamentarians; Loxton, Stam appointed to SAET; and Technology and productivity inquiry.
A Federal Court judge is using a McDonald's class action to test the ability of AI to transform the way courts collate and analyse vast quantities of information, following a speech in which he urged a "far more ambitious" approach to harnessing the technology.
A judge has urged courts to be "far more ambitious" in harnessing AI, potentially by developing tools to guide and synthesise cases filed by self-represented applicants, to analyse discovery material, and to change the machinery for using expert knowledge.
In what might be the first FWC costs order for failing to heed warnings against proceeding with AI-assisted cases afflicted by "unfixable" flaws, the FWC has taken the "very rare step" of ordering a worker to pay part of his former employer's costs of defending his "doomed" unfair dismissal claim.
A NSW IRC full bench has upheld a ruling that a sacked interpreter breached a Commission practice note by failing to seek leave to file AI-generated material that then turned out to be inaccurate, warning that unrepresented applicants cannot expect leniency after such transgressions.
A workplace racial vilification complaint has failed because it did not meet the NSW Anti-Discrimination Act's requirement that it involve a "public act", in a ruling that also found the self-represented employee a dishonest witness because of his reliance on artificial intelligence to prepare and run his case.
