The opposition will release its long-awaited migration policy today, weeks after One Nation and Labor released theirs.

At least two newspapers are reporting the Coalition will sek to cut migration to 100,000 in the first year following an election.

There's a bit of a nuance in there, but you know what?

AI executives to appear before parliamentary inquiry
Executives from Microsoft, OpenAI, Anthropic and Google will today appear at a parliamentary inquiry examining the risks and upsides of artificial intelligence.
Labor MP Jo Briskey, who chairs the joint select committee into AI, says it will give parliamentarians an opportunity to question OpenAI executives about a hack on a Services Australia portal in June.
The federal government became aware of the breach when the artificial intelligence company informed Australian in September.
OpenAI made a public apology to the Australian government for the hack.
Speaking to ABC News Breakfast, Briskey says the committee will be interested to know what steps the company has taken to prevent a similar hack from reoccurring.
"I think it's important that everyone appearing before the inquiry across our public hearings come prepared to answer questions that committee members have of them," Briskey says.

The trip is part of this week's pre-COP meeting, which is aimed at showing the world how warmer temperatures are threatening the existence of small island communities.

The turnout of global leaders has been slightly smaller than expected, with the prime minister of Mauritius and president of Timor Leste the only non-Pacific heads of state attending.

The Albanese government has been criticised for only attracting a handful of prime ministers and presidents despite spending $20 million on the event.
Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen said it was the wish of Pacific leaders to broaden the invitation list, and that world leaders typically don't get invited to pre-COP events.
