What is it like for people interacting with digital government systems?

The Australian Government aspires to lead the world in digital innovation. Initiatives in digital governance have seen the introduction of algorithms for NDIS support planning.

While the government's vision promises efficiency and modernisation, the reality is far more complex. Meet Mark, Marie, Erin, Paris, Olisama, Paul, and Kaili—seven people whose lives have been profoundly affected by these technological changes. Through their poignant and personal stories, discover how the inflexible nature of these algorithms has not only failed to meet their needs but has also caused significant harm to the very people it aimed to support.

Created in consultation with ROBONDIS activists.

Research Consultants: Sarah Pink and Thao Phan.

Consultant Producer: Anna Grieve

AI ReWired: 

How can we create a future where algorithms and AI are not further marginalising people on the fringes or costing us the earth?

The AI ReWired project uncovers stories of everyday people who resist, celebrate or appropriate AI in their work and in their lives, with the aim to create an ecologically wise and 

socially just world.
