The Government of Canada is partnering with Mila, Québec’s Artificial Intelligence Institute, to explore responsible cultural data governance as part of the country’s broader efforts in AI. Mila–a research centre involving HEC Montréal, McGill University, Polytechnique Montréal, and the Université de Montréal–will work with Canada’s Department of Canadian Heritage to shape future AI-related policies and initiatives that support the cultural sector. “Canada’s authors, musicians and artists have important questions about the impact artificial intelligence will have on their work, and we are ensuring that they are part of the conversation as the government develops Canada’s cultural data strategy for AI,” said Canada Minister of Canadian Heritage Pascale St-Onge.
