Session 001: Owning the output of AI, the problem with giraffes, and why some things should be slow

  • Listen on

Bailey and Robyn talk through how AI is changing their day-to-day work: running one Claude session that manages other sessions, gathering context before starting a task, and the growing need to review and take ownership of what AI produces. They discuss what an organisation’s AI policy should actually cover, why writing with AI can take longer rather than shorter, and the difference between work that looks expert and work that is.

The second half moves to Australia’s proposed AI framework and Anthony Albanese’s July speech, then to Bailey’s giraffe problem: adaptations that pay off now and cost you later, and where that leaves people and organisations adopting AI as fast as they can.

Recorded in Adelaide, August 2026. Nominally about AI. Mostly about everything else.
