Angus Reid data shows 68% of Canadians want heavy regulation of AI, even if it slows development, and would oppose a large data centre planned near their home.
The government is way offside with Canadians on this. Telling them to become “literate” isn’t going to work.

@parismarx@mastodon.online This government seems big on saying that anyone who disagrees with them is simply uninformed. See also: lawful access and changes to the Indian Act.

@parismarx@mastodon.online Honestly, I want to slow development specifically, as well as regulate. It's not clear this approach to the tech can be anything worthwhile but whatever real use it might be needs solid foundations and corners are always cut during manic periods like this. Slow down and take a breath.
