Sue Keay on prioritizing experimentation, new governance styles, sovereign AI, and the treasure of national data sets (AC Ep22)
In this insightful conversation, Ross Dawson and Dr. Sue Keay explore how artificial intelligence—particularly through robotics—can be used to address global challenges such as climate change and environmental preservation. Dr. Keay shares a compelling example of an underwater vision-guided robot designed to help restore the Great Barrier Reef, illustrating how AI can take on tasks beyond human capability. She emphasizes that AI’s true value lies in augmenting human efforts, from ecological restoration to agriculture, where precision robotics can enhance productivity and sustainability.
The discussion also delves into the organizational, societal, and national dimensions of AI transformation. Dr. Keay highlights the importance of open-minded leadership, experimentation, and ethical governance in integrating AI across industries and education. She cautions against cognitive offloading, advocates for human-AI collaboration in the workplace, and calls for stronger national investment in sovereign AI infrastructure and talent development. Drawing from her experience at the UNSW AI Institute, she envisions a future where nations like Australia can retain AI expertise, build their own models, and create meaningful global impact while preserving human autonomy and innovation.
