New laws that send bosses to jail for deliberate wage theft slammed as 'overreach'

If we're going to limit minors' access to social media for their safety, can we do the same for the cohorts most susceptible to online scams? Might as well do something good with the data. #auspol

Insert two Ts and two of the same vowel into the five letter strings below to make common words.

In the past day I’ve heard two people who really should know better say they asked ChatGPT for factual info.
ChatGPT is not a search engine. It is predictive text based on other people’s stolen writing; its whole job is to make stuff up. Please do not ask it for facts. Tell a friend.
