Our research follows 2,932 researchers, builders, lab leaders and public voices through cited biographies. Missing career records can lower counts. Outdated roles can overstate current counts and change ranks. Publication numbers from OpenAlex, as of 16 October 2026. Career and profile data as of 16 October 2026.
We estimate that 18 people shaping AI have worked at CSIRO. Through 2025, we estimate a peak of 12 people in 2007–2008. Full departures most often led to JD.com, Queensland University of Technology and UNSW Sydney. We have no evidence of a current role here.
