Excerpt:

Canada’s AI safety institute has now gained access to all of OpenAI’s “protocols,” Artificial Intelligence Minister Evan Solomon said Friday.

Solomon added the AI Safety Institute is working on a report and promised that "we will get accountability."

Solomon met with the CEO of OpenAI in March after news emerged that the company had banned the mass shooter in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., from using its ChatGPT chatbot due to worrisome interactions — but did not alert law enforcement.

The shooter got around the ChatGPT ban by having a second account.

Our AI minister really isn't focused on regulation. He's in the role to be very focused on business, entrepreneurship and investment, none of which are keen on a heavy regulatory hand. The government is doing some decent stuff on the focus they've chosen, but it's not a focus aimed toward safety, and they don't want to scare off investment, talent, or big corporates, so I don't expect much in terms of real accountability.
