Tesla FSD draws attention in Australia on a path similar to aircraft autopilot
Interest in Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) is rising in Australia, with local discussions likening it to commercial aircraft autopilot. Former Qantas pilot David Nye says aviation shows humans cannot match machines in sustained multi-dimensional attention and that future drivers may mainly monitor automation. He credits autopilot with reducing fatigue and improving safety but warns it can weaken manual skills. Nye shares positive ownership and FSD driving experiences, while debate continues over benefits, risks and industry impact.

Financial firms must set up AI risk management bodies; FSS to draw up guidelines
South Korea's Financial Supervisory Service said on Thursday it will prepare a financial-sector AI risk management framework to help financial companies use artificial intelligence soundly by specifying governance principles. It said AI errors could undermine financial stability and affect consumers, while firms' AI governance remains insufficient. In a survey of 118 firms, only a handful had decision-making bodies and about 85 percent lacked ethics principles and risk standards. The FSS aims to finalise and implement the guidelines in the first quarter.
