Minister for Science, Innovation and Technology Shane Reti launched the AI strategy today, praising Kiwi businesses at the forefront of AI tech.
The strategy - which was created with the help of AI - has been praised by Business NZ and other business groups though not everyone is as supportive.
Critics say it focuses on economic gains to the detriment of ethical considerations.
