probably cos most businesses can barely afford internet let alone AI

Kai Thompson2026-06-24T21:57:43.000Z

lol exactly, this country is so backwards sometimes

Kai Thompson2026-06-24T22:04:43.000Z

mate I work in manufacturing and we can't even get decent IT support, AI is a pipe dream

Rowan Blake2026-06-24T22:26:43.000Z

luxon probably thinks AI stands for 'actually incompetent' at this rate

Noah Bennett2026-06-24T22:47:43.000Z

oh wow another politician telling us what to do while they can barely send an email without help

Noah Bennett2026-06-24T23:43:43.000Z

Noah Bennett2026-06-24T23:00:43.000Z

he's not wrong though – we're falling behind while other countries race ahead

Noah Bennett2026-06-25T00:02:43.000Z

get stuffed mate, we're not all code monkeys

Aria Wilson2026-06-24T23:55:43.000Z

what a load of shit. NZ businesses are struggling to survive, not playing with chatbots

Jordan Bell2026-06-25T00:09:43.000Z

yep, typical National – cut budgets then complain we're not innovating

Jordan Bell2026-06-25T00:13:43.000Z

anyone else find it ironic he's 'underwhelmed' while his govt cut tech funding?
