Queensland moves to criminalize non‑consensual sexual deepfakes
Queensland will make the creation of non‑consensual sexual deepfake images a criminal offence, punishable by up to three years in prison. Attorney‑General Deb Frecklington said the proposal will close a legal gap that currently only bans distribution. Expert consultations begin in April with legislation expected to start mid‑year.

WinDC and US edge‑computing platform Armada have teamed up to roll out a network of renewable‑energy‑powered portable AI factories across Australia. The partnership will install 11 MW of modular data centres at wind, solar and battery sites, each deployable in about 90 days with verified zero Scope 2 emissions per GPU hour. Armada’s Edge Platform will manage operations while integrating with WinDC’s SWARM software to optimise energy use. Initial deployment includes one unit, with plans to shift manufacturing to Australian facilities after a set number of installations.

The "Bitter Lesson" argues that raw scale—more data, compute, and larger models—consistently outperforms clever, hand‑crafted algorithms. Historically, breakthroughs from Deep Blue to AlexNet illustrate this pattern, and modern large language models reinforce it. AI developers spend months fine‑tuning prompts only to...
