"...Dufresne said the case reinforces the need to modernize Canada’s privacy laws.

As AI is increasingly being integrated into personal and professional applications and while currently laws apply to AI, updated laws would help further support the safe deployment of new technologies to protect Canadians’ fundamental right to privacy."

"The investigation predates the fatal shooting in Tumbler Ridge, B.C. in February, but comes amid calls for the government to introduce regulations targeting AI chatbots."

"Seven lawsuits on behalf of those killed or injured in the rampage have been filed in California accusing OpenAI and its co-founder Sam Altman of negligence."

"...despite some 12 different OpenAI employees imploring the company to notify Canadian law enforcement about the shooter’s plans, nothing else was done"
