Australian public servants are demanding AI safeguards as politicians consider staff cuts, Politico reports.

The push comes amid growing concerns about the impact of artificial intelligence on government operations and workforce dynamics.

Meanwhile, Canberra’s campaign finance laws face their 'Citizens United' moment, according to Politico analysis.

The debate reflects broader national conversations about transparency and influence in political funding.
