The insurance sectors in Australia and New Zealand are facing challenges in effectively and safely integrating artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Australia has taken proactive steps by establishing AI Ethics Principles and investing in responsible AI initiatives, while New Zealand's government has been slower to provide guidance. Industry leaders in New Zealand are expressing concerns over the lack of regulatory frameworks, which they believe are essential for navigating AI's complexities.
