Welcome back to Neural Notes: a weekly column where I take a look at some of the most interesting (and sometimes weird) AI news of this week. In this edition: what the federal budget papers had in store for AI, and what the industry had to say about it.

As we reported earlier in the week, there wasn’t a great deal in the budget for the startup sector. At least not directly. No new funding was set aside for entrepreneur programs and the only time the word ‘startups’ was mentioned was in relation to a South East Asian launchpad program that was announced back in March.
