Abstract

The final chapter of this book reflects on the key aspects of 4IR technologies identified amongst the eleven industry sectors featured in relation to both the production and service sectors. Key implications for Australia’s governments and industry are outlined. These include: the need for a national technology policy; significantly increased investment in AI development and training programs offered in both formal educational settings and inhouse by industry to upskill both current and future employees. The authors stress the necessity to urgently address these implications for Australia to make a positive impact in an era where technological advances are having and will continue to have an unprecedented impact even with the recent COVID-19 challenges taking place.
