He pointed to the rapid acceleration of AI development over the past two years, fueled by innovations from companies such as NVIDIA, as a key driver of this shift.
Gaunt highlighted the scale of capital investment pouring into the sector and emphasized Australia’s strong strategic position, not only to meet its own growing demand but also to serve the broader Asia-Pacific region. He also noted how quickly Australians are integrating AI into everyday life.
