The ABC has informed staff it will be introducing artificial intelligence assistant Claude, created by AI giant Anthropic, as it begins to extend the rollout of AI across the organisation.
An internal email to staff, seen by Crikey and first reported in The Snoop, detailed a revised set of AI principles that the ABC would be using and announced that “following an assessment process involving various tools, Claude by Anthropic has been selected as the standard enterprise-wide AI tool for the ABC.”
However, the broadcaster has refused to answer questions about how much it is paying for the AI tool, raising concerns among staff about transparency and job security.
The move comes as many media organisations explore AI to automate tasks, but employees worry about potential redundancies and changes to their roles. The ABC has not commented on whether the AI will replace any existing positions.
