> Senator Jacqui Lambie has urged Australians not to back One Nation leader Pauline Hanson, accusing populists of stoking anger and directing blame. She also attacked Hanson’s support for Donald Trump’s potential war with Iran. Deputy prime minister Richard Marles said he was “comforted” by Anthropic chief Dario Amodei’s call to slow AI development and put safeguards ahead of capability.
