OTTAWA — The federal government is using artificial intelligence to sort through public input on AI policy.
Artificial Intelligence Minister Evan Solomon says an internally-developed AI platform is being used to translate and summarize more than 11,000 comments the government received through its public consultation.
He says the comments will be made public once the work is finished.
Solomon says the work is compliant with rules set out by the Treasury Board.
The public consultation ran alongside an expert “task force” that Solomon assigned to guide him on updating the government’s national AI strategy.
Solomon says the updated strategy will be released in the new year.

What they should do is use AI as a tool to search the internet to have AI come back to the federal government after doing due diligence what it thinks about anyone Canadian regardless of subject matter . Just type in your inquire about that particular Canadian and have AI do the rest . AI is really getting quite good at analyzing anyone Canadians thinking pattern based on what it can find.
