To him, the core issue is “engagement and adoption,” regardless of the drawbacks.

Because that’s working SO well.

How about not learning to rely on the bullshit-generating machines, and invest in tech that does things like, oh, I don’t know…. Results in better healthcare outcomes? Detects fraud, since Canadians are targeted and lose double-digit-billions a year to scams? Invests in distributed computing projects that research new drugs or treatments?

He is destroying any notion of cohesion in society, threatening the safety of our , undermining the functioning of our federation, ignoring and title, and handing control to his corporate pals.

It's not clear this approach to the tech can be anything worthwhile but whatever real use it might be needs solid foundations and corners are always cut during manic periods like this. Slow down and take a breath.

I have over 30 small LLMs sitting in my two PCs. Are you calling the police to raid my house because I have 30 parameter matrices residing in my local file system?

Try to understand what a modern LLM really is. I don't just play with language models. I actually play with neural network models for doing estimations and analyses. You want to "regulate" my daily fun activities?

You will be replaced by small, not large, LLMs.

The government is way offside with Canadians on this. Telling them to become “literate” isn’t going to work.

They aren’t uninformed or illiterate; they simply experience the sides of AI the government prefers not to focus on.
