Overview

Critical analysis reveals gaps in Canada's AI approach to economic security and innovation policy.

Key Points

  • Canada's AI strategy aims to enhance economic security and national competitiveness through innovation policy.
  • Despite narratives of good jobs from AI growth, the reality often falls short of expectations in practice.
  • Examination of AI in Canada involves its development, regulation, and governance amid techno-nationalist goals.
  • Calls to re-orient Canada's AI strategy emphasize public good, accountability, and broader labor participation.
