4,000,000,000,000 Reasons to Scam
The superannuation industry in Australia is mostly a fabulous triumph. At last count the super savings pot was overflowing with more than four trillion dollars. That's a lot of zeroes, and guarantees prosperous retirements for millions of hard-working people. But superannuation here has also become a victim of its success. It's now so valuable, like moths to a flame, that it is attracting the unscrupulous, who are hellbent on getting their hands on the riches. On 60 Minutes, Adam Hegarty investigates a rogue super scheme affecting twelve thousand Australians who stand to lose not only a billion dollars plus, but also any hope for happy futures.

A.I. is either the greatest advance mankind has made since the industrial revolution, or a dangerous evil that's stealing intellectual property while assigning millions of workers to unemployment queues. So what's the truth? As Amelia Adams reports, it's probably both. However, believe in it or not, one thing is certain. Governments have a responsibility to act now to regulate it because A.I. can't and won't be stopped.
