Minister says he's working with G7 to set up AI safety organization
Solomon says the board would test AI models before release as Canada pushes G7 and G20 partners to support the proposal.
On Tuesday, Sept. 22, 2026, Artificial Intelligence Minister Evan Solomon discussed establishing an international "technology stability board" with G7 counterparts to tackle Artificial Intelligence safety.
Prime Minister Mark Carney endorsed the concept last week, suggesting a global body modeled after the Financial Stability Board would address rising Artificial Intelligence risks.
Solomon noted the proposed board would evaluate and test Artificial Intelligence models before release, building on safety discussions he held with G20 countries this past Friday.
Warnings about the risks Artificial Intelligence poses to humans have prompted global alarm in recent weeks, driving the government to prioritize advanced technology safety.
Solomon's push for international oversight follows his appearance at the All-In 2026 conference in Montreal on Wednesday, where he emphasized the government's commitment to digital innovation.
