Canada is positioning itself as a global leader in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) and new technologies, thanks to strategic investments and a clear vision for the future. As the first country to adopt a national AI strategy in 2017, Canada has invested over 2 billion Canadian dollars to support research and innovation in this sector. This ongoing support places Canada at the forefront of global technological innovation.
Canada has distinguished itself through significant advancements in AI, notably thanks to iconic figures like Yoshua Bengio, a co-pioneer of AI. The country has developed a robust ecosystem around AI, supported by cutting-edge research centers and globally recognized academic institutions. Cities like Montreal and Toronto have become hubs for AI talent, attracting researchers and technology companies.
Recently, the Canadian government announced a massive investment of 2.4 billion Canadian dollars in the 2024 budget to strengthen its position in the AI sector. This funding aims to boost job growth, improve technological infrastructure, and support Canadian start-ups and scale-ups. A significant portion of these funds is dedicated to enhancing computing capabilities, which is crucial for advanced AI research.
In parallel, Canada plans to establish a Canadian Institute for AI Security, with a budget of 50 million dollars, to ensure the safe development and deployment of AI. This initiative reflects the country's commitment to ensuring the responsible adoption of AI by businesses.
Canada holds a prominent position in the global technological ecosystem, thanks to its proactive strategy and innovation-friendly environment. The country boasts qualified human resources, a favorable regulatory framework, and advanced technological infrastructure. These assets make Canada a key player in international collaborations on AI, particularly with countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, and France.
Canada continues to evolve by integrating AI into various economic sectors. The country recently participated in the "Seoul AI Business Pledge," an international commitment to developing AI securely. Moreover, Canada is actively involved in creating a network of AI institutes worldwide, further strengthening its leadership position in AI security and regulation.
Additionally, the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University has opened a branch in Montreal, strengthening academic ties between Canada and other regions of the world. This represents an opportunity for knowledge exchange and the development of joint projects in strategic areas such as agriculture, energy, and sustainable development.
In summary, Canada asserts itself as an essential pillar of AI innovation, thanks to sustained investments, strategic international collaboration, and a firm commitment to ethical and responsible technology. These initiatives position Canada as an influential decision-maker in the future of artificial intelligence on a global scale.
