Hi Karen, as an industry consultant whose sole engagement is to market Machine Learning/AI to the Australian Asset Management community I could not agree more with your comments above and indeed it is concerning. As Australian managers slip further behind their global peers, in the adoption of machine driven technology, the risk is that focus may begin to shift away from the local market towards off-shore hubs where there is rapidly increasing demand for machine driven data analytics and a willingness to pay for the inherent efficiencies therein!
I'd be happy to discuss this issue further with you should you have the time available...
Regards,
David McIntosh
