Australia AISI-2026

Australia AISI-2026 has been enacted.

Announced 25 November 2025 with AUD 29.9 million in funding, the AI Safety Institute launched in early 2026 to monitor, evaluate and coordinate regulatory responses to frontier AI risks. It works directly with privacy, consumer, competition, online-safety and sector regulators and partners with international AI Safety Institutes, acting as Australia's central hub for AI safety science rather than a dedicated AI law.
