About Jack
Jack is an AI Corporate Governance Specialist at the University of Technology Sydney Human Technology Institute, where he drives research on AI governance, policy and security. He is also a JADE Fellow with the United States Studies Centre, and sits on IT-043, Australia’s national standards development committee for AI. Jack has worked in AI and cyber security across public, private, academic, and civil society settings for over six years, having engaged Australia’s leading and most vulnerable organisations deploying AI. Jack is alert to the major AI risks, challenges, and opportunities facing Australian organisations, and sees his next step as helping design Australia’s approach to AI-cybersecurity governance. Through studying a Master of Public Policy and Master of Public Policy Research at the University of Oxford, he will get exposure to Oxford’s many centres dedicated to AI governance and gain knowledge, networks, and policy design skills to implement world-class AI-cybersecurity governance in Australia. Upon his return, he will work on developing the national AI-cybersecurity policy and contribute to building Australia’s new AI Safety Institute, setting technical governance standards for advanced AI systems. Expertise in this developing frontier will enable Jack to coordinate across Australia’s security agencies and with international partners to enhance national and regional AI-cyber security governance, as well as capabilities to respond to emerging AI-cyber risks.
