Smoke and Stack: Professor Julian Wright on competition and regulation up and down the AI stack.
<p>Professor Julian Wright from the National University of Singapore joins us to talk about competition and regulation up and down the AI stack -- from the chips to the chatbots and everything in between. Is it winner-takes-all or winner-takes most? Will the digital platforms displace the new labs? And do we need more regulation or less? Plus a competition conference is compliantly considered, Ampol/EG Australia is the first Phase 2 merger approved by the ACCC, the new-look unfair trading practices bill reaches parliament, and AI essays and encyclicals abound … All this and cinematic polycephaly with co-hosts Moya Dodd and Matt Rubinstein. </p> <p> </p> <p>Links: </p> <ul> <li data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="2">Michael B Jordan on <a href="https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/awards/story/2025-12-22/michael-b-jordan-sinners-smoke-stack-ryan-coogler">playing identical twins Smoke and Stack</a> in Sinners </li> <li data-aria-posinset="2" data-aria-level="2">Three-eyed animals in <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Oscars/comments/1rs89oj/just_noticed_two_of_the_2026_best_picture/">Train Dreams and The Secret Agent</a> </li> <li data-aria-posinset="3" data-aria-level="2">ACCC approves <a href="https://www.accc.gov.au/media-release/accc-approves-ampols-acquisition-of-eg-australia-subject-to-conditions">Ampol's acquisition of EG Australia</a> in first finalised Phase 2 </li> <li data-aria-posinset="4" data-aria-level="2">Track the <a href="https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislation/Bills_Search_Results/Result?bId=r7468">Competition and Consumer Amendment (Unfair Trading Practices) Bill 2026</a> </li> <li data-aria-posinset="5" data-aria-level="2">Damien Charlotin's <a href="https://www.damiencharlotin.com/hallucinations/">AI Hallucination Cases Database</a> </li> <li data-aria-posinset="6" data-aria-level="2">Justice Needham, <a href="https://www.fedcourt.gov.au/digital-law-library/judges-speeches/justice-needham/needham-j-20250627">"AI and the Courts in 2025"</a> </li> <li data-aria-posinset="7" data-aria-level="2">Pope Leo XIV's Encyclical Letter, <a href="https://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/en/encyclicals/documents/20260515-magnifica-humanitas.html">"Magnifica Humanitas"</a> </li> <li data-aria-posinset="8" data-aria-level="2">Prof Julian Wright, <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167718725000013">"Artificial Intelligence and Competition Policy"</a> at ScienceDirect </li> <li data-aria-posinset="9" data-aria-level="2">Anna Goldsworthy's Quarterly Essay, <a href="https://www.quarterlyessay.com.au/essay/2026/06/the-god-we-made">"The God We Made: The Threat and Promise of Artificial Intelligence"</a> </li> <li data-aria-posinset="10" data-aria-level="2">The Competitive Edge's <a href="https://crossword.info/edge">cryptic crosswords</a>, conspicuously inspired by Justice Wigney </li> <li data-aria-posinset="11" data-aria-level="2">Meet the Gilbert + Tobin <a href="https://www.gtlaw.com.au/expertise/competition-and-regulation">Competition, Consumer + Market Regulation</a> team </li> <li data-aria-posinset="12" data-aria-level="2">Email us at <a href="mailto:edge@gtlaw.com.au">edge@gtlaw.com.au</a> </li> </ul><p><a href="https://www.gtlaw.com.au/" rel="payment">Support the show: https://www.gtlaw.com.au/</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

TSLRIC Poetry: Dr Lilla Csorgo on merger control, ex ante regulation, economics and literature
<p>Dr Lilla Csorgo, lay member of the High Court of New Zealand, joins us to talk about being Chief Economist in three different countries, approaches to ex ante regulation and merger control, being approximately correct vs precisely wrong, and whether fiction and economics have anything in common. Plus, the ACCC wins against Coles in its “was/now/had been” pricing case, the courts have thoughts on NSW Ports, competition and consumer initiatives in the federal budget, and competition and consumer concerns at the FIFA World Cup … All this and e-micromobility with co-hosts Moya Dodd and Matt Rubinstein. </p> <p>Links: </p> <ul> <ul> <li>Henry Ergas, "<a href="https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1430248" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id%3D1430248&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw194s-PjdHf_wXOR5zKSMwW">TSLRIC, TELRIC and Other Forms of Forward-Looking Cost Models in Telecommunications: A Curmudgeon's Guide</a>" at SSRN </li> <li><a href="https://archive.org/details/softwar00bret" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://archive.org/details/softwar00bret&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw0YVBxPFD1Xsa0qhOX6NUnz">Softwar</a> by Thierry Breton and Denis Beneich at The Internet Archive </li> <li><a href="https://lilla.ca/" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://lilla.ca/&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw1iFD7SomDCjWDLUgBO_7rG">Prose and plays</a> by Dr Lilla Csorgo </li> <li><a href="https://www.judgments.fedcourt.gov.au/judgments/Judgments/fca/single/2026/2026fca0598" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.judgments.fedcourt.gov.au/judgments/Judgments/fca/single/2026/2026fca0598&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw0_hf5F_Qewvdm1XRp5B0ZZ">ACCC v Coles [2026] FCA 598</a> </li> <li>Mayfield v NSW Ports [2026] HCA 21 <a href="https://www.hcourt.gov.au/sites/default/files/judgment-summaries/2026-05/hca-12-2026-05-06.pdf" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.hcourt.gov.au/sites/default/files/judgment-summaries/2026-05/hca-12-2026-05-06.pdf&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw22smZNTnVIGx5MfW-jT2xu">Summary</a> and <a href="https://www.hcourt.gov.au/cases-and-judgments/judgments/judgments-1998-current/mayfield-development-corporation-pty-ltd-v-nsw-port-operations-hold-co-pty-ltd" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.hcourt.gov.au/cases-and-judgments/judgments/judgments-1998-current/mayfield-development-corporation-pty-ltd-v-nsw-port-operations-hold-co-pty-ltd&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw2247j7VF79couJZ7XbtP12">Judgment</a> </li> <li>"<a href="https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2002-12744-001" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2002-12744-001&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw1fVNZVV9mUKifkNWws4cay">Why Susie sells seashells by the seashore: Implicit egotism and major life decisions</a>", Journey of Personality and Social Psychology, 82(4) 469-487 </li> <li><a href="https://historicvehicles.com.au/historic-truck-brands/dennis-and-dennis-eagle/" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://historicvehicles.com.au/historic-truck-brands/dennis-and-dennis-eagle/&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw2zKOZIoZ518M5Xg2TOVQFX">Why all fire trucks are called Dennis</a> </li> <li><a href="https://www.harrypotter.com/news/discover-your-hogwarts-house-on-wizarding-world" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.harrypotter.com/news/discover-your-hogwarts-house-on-wizarding-world&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw12QhvZ7qguc9IFMSjZqICu">Discover your Hogwarts House</a> at Hatty Potter Wizarding World </li> <li>Julien Guyon, "<a href="https://www.sloansportsconference.com/research-papers/risk-of-collusion-will-groups-of-3-ruin-the-fifa-world-cup" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.sloansportsconference.com/research-papers/risk-of-collusion-will-groups-of-3-ruin-the-fifa-world-cup&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw3FVmkQda1hOMtjAP6Byjfs">Risk of Collusion: Will Groups of 3 Ruin the FIFA World Cup?</a>" </li> <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/oWAyEqlFGO4" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.youtube.com/shorts/oWAyEqlFGO4&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw3tdQNwUOPrtvri3oVjXrNP">The Disgrace of Gijon</a> on YouTube </li> <li>Meet the Gilbert + Tobin <a href="https://www.gtlaw.com.au/expertise/competition-and-regulation" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.gtlaw.com.au/expertise/competition-and-regulation&source=gmail&ust=1779505417384000&usg=AOvVaw1XJABKgWruAcwt7OeQqrqP">Competition, Consumer + Market Regulation</a> team </li> <li>Email us at <a href="mailto:edge@gtlaw.com.au">edge@gtlaw.com.au</a> </li> </ul> </ul><p><a href="https://www.gtlaw.com.au/" rel="payment">Support the show: https://www.gtlaw.com.au/</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
