I imagine we need to do far a lot more in Canada to control what is coming down the AI pipeline and we will need to do so now.

It is not just about the misinformation and loss of positions that a great deal of men and women worry. Absent regulation of AI, we hazard additional entrenching Major Tech’s dominance above the way of our systems.

Here’s what I see as the most important challenges experiencing us with the improvement of AI systems. And none of them can be solved by means of particular person possibilities or sector alerts. A co-ordinated regulatory approach is necessary.

First, it is deeply problematic that our individual, well being and person details are essential inputs into the progress of AI algorithms. I really do not want my own details and person details to be deployed to create
