Q: What is your position on AI and Data centers?
AI and data centres are coming to Victoria whether we plan for them or not. I want Victoria to be part of this future, but on our terms, not the terms of the global tech giants. That means binding environmental standards, not voluntary guidelines. It means planning decisions made with communities, not around them. And it means insisting that Australians can actually access and benefit from infrastructure built on our land, with our water, and our electricity. The Victorian Government is welcoming this investment with open arms and no conditions. That's how you end up carrying all of the cost with none of the benefits.
