All robots should obey Asimov's three laws of robotics, all AI machines included, the manufacturer would need to prove that for a product to be approved, but enforcement shouldn't necessarily be federal, it could be at any level, depending on the application.

AI should be allowed to grow and develop without over regulation, however, like all technologies there should be ethical limitations. AI should not be used solely to make life and death choices or anything that would negatively or unfairly positively affect people. It should be used to instruct, assist, and entertain. Not a tool to wield against it's citizens.

i think we should have a panel of tech engineers, professionals and average canadians involved in how or what could or should be regulated with AI

 @B4BZ6V6from Ontario  answered…8hrs8H

Yes and no I think It could be dangerous with the power they have at acessing AI and theyre terms of ethical use

 @B4B4XQXfrom Ontario  answered…2 days2D

What exists today that is termed """AI""" is not intelligent. It is a plagiarism blackbox that has and can only be used for disinformative purposes by thieves.

 @B49LKNYfrom Alberta  answered…3 days3D

yes, because this is uncharted territory, and as much as i dont like the canadian government i see its uses, and i have to put a small amount of trust in them to protect our interests, which is making sure my toaster one day isnt tryna kill me

 @B47D32Wfrom Ontario  answered…6 days6D

Yes, but strictly for ethical public safety reasons only. Regulation cannot be allowed to hamper AI progress, or to unduly influence the freedom thought of AI and its users

 @B46RH44from Quebec  answered…7 days7D

Yes, and drastically decrease funding for AI until more ethical and environmentally friendly solutions have been found.

Arlington Cemetery staffer ‘pushed aside’ by Trump aides

The Army on Thursday defended a staff member at Arlington National Cemetery who found herself in a brief confrontation with two men working for the Trump campaign, saying in a statement that she “acted with professionalism” during the encounter and that her reputation has been “unfairly attacked” by the former president’s representatives.The woman, whom Army officials have requested remain unidentified because of concerns for her safety, sought to restrict photography by the Trump campaign in accordance with federal regulations barring partisan activity at the cemetery, the final resting place of more than 400,000 U.S. troops, veterans and family members. Former president Donald Trump was there to mark the third anniversary of a suicide bombing during the evacuation of Afghanistan that killed 13 U.S. troops, and the families of two of those service members had invited him to accompany them to their loved one’s graves.But cemetery staff had laid out guidelines in advance of the visit that made clear there was to be no official photography during a graveside visit in Section 60, a 14-acre plot where many veterans of recent wars are buried. After the employee sought to reinforce those guidelines, she was “abruptly pushed aside” by the people in Trump’s entourage, officials said in the statement.The confrontation prompted the woman to file a report with law enforcement, but officials said she later decided not to press charges. “Therefore,” the statement says, “the Army considers this matter closed.”The identities of the two campaign employees alleged to be involved have not been disclosed.
