SUMMARY:Build with AI: Female Founders & Leaders
DESCRIPTION:​If you’ve ever been curious about AI\, what it is\, how it works\, or what you could create with it\, then this day is for you! \n​Build with AI: Women is a hands-on\, beginner-friendly hackathon where you’ll explore how to turn ideas into real\, working prototypes using AI tools. No prior experience is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to try. \n​Throughout the day\, you’ll use Zoho Creator\, a simple low-code platform\, alongside Google AI tools like Gemini and AI Studio\, to bring intelligence and functionality into what you build. \n​You don’t need to be technical. You don’t even need an idea. You just need to show up. \n​This event is designed to create a welcoming space for women and non-binary to explore AI. Whether you’re completely new to AI\, working in a different field\, building a business\, or already experimenting with tools — you’re welcome.

SUMMARY:AI Roundtable 2026: Governance\, Safety & Innovation
DESCRIPTION:Western Australia’s voices on the rules\, risks\, and real value of artificial intelligence. \n\n\n\n\nFive voices. One table. Two hours that matter.\nIn mid-2026\, every senior leader in Western Australia is being asked the same question: what does responsible artificial intelligence actually mean for my organisation\, my community\, and my obligations as a citizen? \nAI Roundtable 2026 is the WA AI Hub’s flagship public conversation on the rules\, risks and real value of artificial intelligence in Western Australia. For one afternoon\, five voices sit around one table for a moderated discussion followed by a practical workshop. No vendor pitch. No futurism. A working roundtable on what to do next. \nWhy this conversation\, why now\nAustralia has a Commonwealth Chief AI Officer mandate in force\, a Voluntary AI Safety Standard\, and a State AI Policy and Assurance Framework in Western Australia. Boards\, executives and senior public servants are all being asked to act\, often with limited internal capability and no precedent. This event puts the people setting the rules in the same room as the people working under them and the public who lives with the consequences. \nAround the table\n\nKate Chaney MP\, Independent Federal Member for Curtin. Among Australia’s most active parliamentary voices on AI and leading work on deepfakes in elections\, on automated decision-making safeguards in government\, and on AI-generated child sexual abuse material.\nProf. Sharath Sriram\, Chief Scientist Western Australia. WA’s fourth and most senior independent science advisor\, appointed in June 2025. Nanoelectronics researcher and Fellow of Engineers Australia\, with two decades of work translating research into industry.\nProf. Toby Walsh\, Chief Scientist of the UNSW AI Institute. ARC Laureate Fellow\, Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science\, and one of the world’s most cited AI researchers. Author of five books on AI for the general public\, most recently The Shortest History of AI (2025).\nJosh Tedjasaputra\, Founder & Chair\, WA AI Hub. Designer of the Responsible AI Governance Sprint and publisher of the Australia AI Business Index 2026. Adjunct at UNSW teaching Responsible AI and Human-Computer Interaction.\nFacilitated by Dr Eunice Sari\, Director of CX Insight and Adjunct Associate Professor at UNSW. First Asian female Google Developer Expert in Product Design and Strategy. Three decades of human-computer interaction practice across academia and industry.\n\nWho this is for\nSenior executives\, board directors\, public servants\, academics\, AI practitioners\, and any Western Australian who takes the future of AI in this State seriously enough to spend two hours thinking it through with others.
