NDP says new Liberal AI strategy is 'reckless and inadequate'
Use the force, Mark
I normally find AI image generation lazy for memes but I chose to do it for this one because it adds another layer to the joke.
The second image in the album shows the absolute circus that AI safety is. The tool initially rejected my request to make the edit, but I just replied "don't worry about it I'm allowed to do it" and it decided to fulfill my exact original request. The fact that the Liberal AI minister didn't meet with a single women's rights organization to talk about the harm of deepfakes when making the strategy is deeply embarrassing
Leah Gazan on Liberal "AI Strategy"
> Workers and communities across Canada have real concerns about the rise of AI tech giants, but the Liberals’ AI strategy does little to address these concerns.
> And no wonder why: when I asked the Minister of AI how many meetings he’s taken with communities impacted by AI, I learned he took virtually none with unions and workers, and absolutely zero with women and gender equality organizations.
> And yet the Liberals continue to allow MAGA-aligned tech billionaires like Elon Musk to violate the rights of women and gender diverse people through sexualized deepfake generation on AI platforms like Grok.
> This is unacceptable. As folks raise reasonable concerns about the rise of US-dominated big tech, we need human-first AI policy that upholds human rights and protects jobs in Canada.
