Canada Targets AI Copyright Rules While Weighing Social Media Age Restrictions — Web Summit

The Canadian government is preparing new rules on how copyright holders should be compensated when their work is used by AI systems, as it also weighs age restrictions on social media and tighter regulation of AI chatbots.

Evan Solomon, Canada’s Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation, was speaking at Web Summit Vancouver. He talked up the opportunity around artificial intelligence following a series of splashy announcements including C$66M of funding for over forty AI projects, and a huge new AI data center in British Columbia developed with Telus.
