Comment by Mathias Cormann

Australia needs to further boost adoption by encouraging competitive AI ecosystems that offer quality services at affordable prices. And we need more investment in skills and human capital to empower workers through training, improved AI literacy, and support for lifelong learning – to ensure all can have the best possible opportunity to participate and benefit from the opportunities the accelerating digital transformation and AI can offer.

AI Verified The exact two-sentence passage appears verbatim on the ACCI page titled “Remarks by Mathias Cormann OECD Secretary-General, ACCI General Council Meeting,” which is marked “TRANSCRIPT: 1 September 2025.” That title attributes the remarks to Mathias Cormann, and the same wording also appears on the OECD speech page for 1 September 2025. The stored quote, author, date, and source URL are consistent.

Disputed Disputed. The ACCI transcript of Mathias Cormann’s remarks (dated 1 September 2025) does contain the first sentence exactly, and the speech is correctly attributed to him. But the second sentence in the source continues after “training” with additional text about improved AI literacy and lifelong learning; because the submitted quote omits that continuation without using [...], it is not verbatim as presented. The OECD reposting matches the same wording.
