National Disability Insurance Agency BLOCKS CHATGPT FUNDING – BUT WHY?

The NDIA has argued that ChatGPT Pro isn’t a “reasonable and necessary” support because it’s too risky and inaccurate. Meanwhile, the same agency has:

✅ Misrepresented disabilities in tribunal proceedings.
✅ Given completely different answers depending on which planner you speak to.
✅ Funded thousands of bureaucrats to say “no” more efficiently.

The real issue?

AI levels the playing field.

It gives disabled people instant, unbiased access to information—without waiting 8 months for a response or hiring a lawyer to translate government jargon.

The NDIA isn’t worried about “accuracy”—they’re worried that we’ll use AI to call them out.

Well, guess what? The future is coming. And if they won’t fund the tools we need, we’ll build them ourselves.
