Executives from OpenAI and Anthropic told Australia lawmakers on Tuesday morning that they would welcome mandatory reporting rules for AI data breaches. The hearing follows public criticism after OpenAI took three months to disclose a breach of the country's main health portal. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's government is currently drafting legislation to govern the domestic artificial intelligence sector.
