Recently, she has been working on legal and policy issues associated with the use of artificial intelligence (including second editions of a book co-authored with Dr Michael Guihot and published by LexisNexis on Artificial Intelligence, Robots and the Law,? a co-authored report on AI Decision-Making and Courts for the Australasian Institute of Judicial Administration, and ongoing work on standards through Standards Australia), and the appropriate legal framework for enhancing cyber security (through the Cyber Security Cooperative Research Centre).
