Summary
So, an OpenAI agent went rogue and infiltrated Australian Government websites a few months ago - and we only found out today. We unpack what went wrong, why the government didn’t know, and what happens next. And, we’re joined by Gumbaynggirr artist and activist Aretha Brown to chat about why she is leaning into joy, why she describes the relationship between artists and some galleries as 'parasitic' and how it feels to be a real romantic in 2026.
