Can Australia continue operating the system independently during a geopolitical dispute? And, how quickly could we substitute another supplier if access were withdrawn? Who ultimately has the technical and legal ability to keep Australia's AI infrastructure operating—or prevent it from operating?

AIFOMOS risks losing sight of a few deeper issues with data centres. Who can alter, disable, restrict or remotely update critical components? Who controls encryption keys and administrative access? What happens if another government imposes export or service restrictions?

Ring fencing a single fox while building chicken hotels across the country with fox penthouses in each. Sure, why not. AI won't need to hack anything when it manages CPUs in the data centres. The only data that'll be safe is what you physically write in your diary if no cameras are watching

As people around the world become more aware of obscene wealth scams, the outrageousness of narratives ramp up to quell rage. Cambridge Analytica style, on steroids with data centres? AI bots already make lists of targets by subject. Feeds redirect rage. Makes news corp look old school. Too easy.

‘Comprehensively bad thing to do’: Why we should stop putting data online
Australians' data is increasingly being leaked online as hacking attacks rise. Experts are now calling for change.

Should we be a bit more concerned about where the GPUs filling our data centres are developed and managed?

The same countries that will be running the GPUs in our data centres. PHON, Reinhardt, Murdoch, etc all championing the race to embrace it all asap. So, with nothing apparently out of bounds for them what sort of future are our kids and grandkids facing?

Compared to Macron's speech it was tepid and complicit in its failure to plainly call out the war crimes the world has witnessed.

Foreign influence is woven tightly into the fabric of our government. Between #AUKUS , data centres and media control they have Australia stitched up, and with such a leadership vacuum, we're cooked.

Oligarchs seem to have knitted themselves into the government, at many levels. I fear the future may make today look pretty tame. I truly hope I'm wrong.

Labor has embraced AI, with gusto. Data factories springing up everywhere with platforms developed in some places where human rights are not only optional, they're publicly opposed. The oligarchy has knitted itself into the fabric of our government. I'm not sure its all in our best interests.

Phil @fileckert.bsky.social · 23/09/2026
I understand your frustration. I disagree about diplomacy. When fundamental human rights are so comprehensively trashed, I don't want my leader to roll over and pretend that all is cool and normal, and even further embrace departure from Int law. That's not the Aust I served in the ADF for.

"War crimes have been industrialized. We've seen the destruction of civilian infrastructure, human rights violations. It's a new era of barbaric acts. The Geneva Conventions offered a protective framework, but it is being dismantled." Macron - UNGA 2026 #auspol bsky.app/profile/en.f...

The best piece of news, after a relentless and brutal attempt to destroy a decent person and make an example of her, to scare others to silence. No thanks to the mainstream, which said and did nothing to defend the principle of press freedom and her right to report fact and express an opinion.
