Best hire ever!

I've started as the ABC’s national AI tech reporter, after 5 unreal years at Crikey.

AI is one of the biggest stories of our time. It's ripe for critical, nuanced reporting about what it means for us in Australia.

Got a story about Aussies and AI? [email protected]

[Gina Rushton @ginarush]

@BernardKeane I reckon it is partly the Curse of Crikey and partly something way more boring and depressing which is that most journalists and editors don't read very widely :(

For your weekend longread consideration: A case I first heard about years ago, as an urban myth. But as I began to dig into the disappearance of Eloise Worledge, the reality was far more interesting and more shocking https://t.co/IbaMxnT8ck

I like in/out year-end lists but some of them read like
IN: Kissing and hugging me, my powers being valued, society recognizing my powers
OUT: Dog biting me, me being forgotten by history, me being forgotten by history and then stepped on by a dog, matcha

Incredible episode with Perry Duffin, best crime reporter in the country, recounting arriving on the scene at the Bondi massacre after his friend was shot.

This is obviously mostly a product of living in Sydney, but I was only roughly aware of this case from random tweets. But now actually reading what happened is unbelievable. Suppression orders work!

[Gina Rushton @ginarush]

Amazing.

Pro-teen social media ban group 36 Months was selling sponsorship to a United Nations event run by the Australian government with the promise of “influence” and “access” to heads of states, according to a leaked document.

In every group chat in DC there is one person providing the lizza/nuzzi PDFs for mass consumption. These people are our providers and they should run America’s supply chains

Amazing scoop from @CapitalBrief. A piece from the best person on LinkedIn after he was kicked off platform.

I wrote about a new AI journalism fellowship funding reporters at major outlets like NBC News and Bloomberg. The fellows are breaking stories that have pissed off OpenAI and its allies—but they've also raised interesting questions about editorial independence...
