Solomon says new federal AI strategy will track impact on jobs

Evan Solomon says the plan will balance AI growth with labour concerns after consultations drew more than 11,000 public comments.

  • On Monday, Artificial Intelligence Minister Evan Solomon announced the government's national Artificial Intelligence strategy will address the technology's impact on the labour market, ensuring it meets evolving workforce needs.
  • Six months after concluding fast-tracked consultations, Solomon maintains ongoing meetings with labour leaders, environmentalists, and young people are necessary because Artificial Intelligence's impact continues evolving rapidly.
  • Public consultations yielded more than 11,000 comments, which the government sorted using Artificial Intelligence, though critics previously argued the advisory task force leaned too heavily toward industry perspectives.
  • Solomon stated in Ottawa, "Our government is very pragmatic. We're going to do it safely and fairly," as the Liberal government plans to introduce an online harms bill incorporating Artificial Intelligence chatbots.
  • Shifting from his initial view of avoiding "over-indexing on warnings and regulation," Solomon maintains Canada must strike a balance between Artificial Intelligence supporters and those completely opposed to the technology.
