Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will reveal the plans on the first day of his US visit, promising new jobs in fields such as cloud computing and AI.

Australia’s online spy agency will join Microsoft to build a “cyber shield” to protect networks from security threats as part of a $5 billion investment by the tech giant in local projects.

In brief remarks after his arrival, Albanese said he wanted the visit to turn the AUKUS agreement into reality, build closer economic ties and take the next step on his agreement with Biden to expand the supply of critical minerals for advanced technology products and renewable energy.
