    Businesses are calling for clarity, as the Government moves to pump up our AI options


    Science Minister Shane Reti's unveiled the country's first AI-strategy, in hopes of boosting economic growth.

    He says the strategy will reduce barriers to adoption and give clear regulatory guidance for its use.

    BusinessNZ Advocacy Director Catherine Beard says she says a strategy is a great start.

    She says when businesses have more clarity on how the Government will legislate the technology, they'll have the confidence to invest.
