The Parti Qu茅b茅cois' recent 97-page immigration plan suggests replacing workers with automation in sectors facing labour shortages. However, Assistant Professor of Operations Management Rob Glew argues this approach is flawed. He points out that sectors of Quebec鈥檚 economy with the most acute labour shortages don鈥檛 lend themselves well to automation, like health care and early childhood education. 鈥淭o just lump it in that robots are substitutes for immigrants totally misses the point,鈥 Glew tells CTV News.
AI-powered apps offering medical diagnoses at the click of a button are often limited by biased data and a lack of regulation, leading to inaccurate and unsafe health advice, a new study found.
Congratulations to our winning teams of the Bensadoun School鈥檚 2nd annual Retail Gen AI Hackathon.
We had 38 student teams register representing diverse faculties across 缅北强奸. Over two days, 10 finalist teams hacked creative Gen AI solutions for our title sponsor ALDO Group.
Each team had an AWS mentor and access to support from IVADO Labs and DataSphere Lab team members.
AI has become an omnipresent topic of discussion in our daily lives, both professionally and personally. While much has been written on the challenges, risks, and pitfalls of AI (and the strong need to regulate its development and deployment carefully), it's also important to highlight its numerous benefits and positive impacts on society and the economy.
A new project led by 缅北强奸 researchers seeks to understand one of humanity鈥檚 oldest practices and most powerful tools鈥攕torytelling. From ancient oral traditions to modern-day literature and digital narratives, storytelling is an essential part of the lived experience that is not yet fully understood. 鈥楾he Lives of Literary Characters鈥 is a first-of-its-kind initiative, harnessing artificial intelligence (AI) and the collective wisdom of readers worldwide to explore the question: why do we tell stories?
Artificial intelligence can identify patterns in data much faster and more effectively and efficiently than humans can, but it is only applicable to the specific contexts in which data was created. Even then, AI can replicate the data鈥檚 biases and encode them, resulting in a major limitation that can lead to discrimination on the basis of sex or ethnicity. This is of particular concern for public sector organizations, which need to be fair to those they serve.
When endangered howler monkey populations cross Costa Rica鈥檚 roads, they are vulnerable to injury from electrical wires and passing cars. Associate Professor Juan Camilo Serpa, partnering with Reserva Conchal, is using artificial intelligence to help prevent these injuries from occurring.

Indigenous communities across the globe are fighting to retain their languages, which serve as means through which cultures, knowledge and traditions are preserved and transmitted between generations.
Artificial intelligence chatbots that show positive feelings 鈥 such as adding an 鈥淚 am excited to do so!鈥 or a few exclamation marks 鈥 do not necessarily translate into positive reactions or contribute to higher customer satisfaction, according to a recent study by researchers from the University of South Florida, the Georgia Institute of Technology and 缅北强奸.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming our world in powerful ways, from improving medical care and changing the retail landscape to enabling convenient features on our smartphones. But as AI increasingly underpins our daily lives, important questions about its application 鈥 and potential misuse 鈥 will continue to arise.
