Nine years ago, the Government of Canada launched the initial Pan-Canadian AI Strategy, an effort that made investments to cement Canada’s lead in producing leading AI research, later expanding the strategy to promote commercialization of AI-enabled products. Ottawa was largely successful in the first goal, but the country lagged the world translating that research success into economic prosperity.
This week’s planned announcement on a refreshed artificial-intelligence strategy comes three years and seven months after OpenAI unleashed ChatGPT. Most notably, the announcement also comes six months after the federal government’s self-imposed deadline.
Multiple media sources outline a strategy with wide-ranging objectives and activities. Called “AI for All,” it aims to speak to all Canadians about the benefits and opportunities of AI.
The question is, are Canadians on board with that positive vision of AI?
