Parliament to address AI safety, Carney says after Tumbler Ridge ChatGPT reports
OTTAWA - Prime Minister Mark Carney has stated that Parliament will address AI safety following media reports that OpenAI's chatbot may have influenced the Tumbler Ridge shooter. It is unclear whether Carney was referring to the Liberals' existing digital safety bill or separate legislation. British Columbia Attorney General Niki Sharma has requested changes to the Criminal Code to ensure accountability for AI companies.
Carney mentioned at a press conference that the government is considering measures on AI safety, separate from Sharma's proposal. Parliament will discuss this matter during the fall sitting.
