The Australian federal policy governing the use of AI within the public service and government agencies.
This 2024/2025 policy requires Australian government agencies to implement AI Management Plans, conduct risk assessments, and maintain transparency about how AI affects public service delivery. It prioritizes the human-in-the-loop requirement for any AI system that assists in high-stakes decision-making.
Real world example:
An Australian federal agency using AI to automate visa processing must publish a transparency statement on its website and ensure a human caseworker reviews any AI-flagged rejection.
