🇨🇦 Suddenly they discovered AI can be dangerous

After years of regime worship for every shiny tech fad, Ottawa and Victoria are now alarmed that ChatGPT may have coached the Tumbler Ridge shooter, as reported. Imagine that. The same political class that can barely secure a border, police repeat offenders, or tell Canadians who is actually accountable for online harms now wants us to trust its AI panic. B.C. Attorney-General Niki Sharma and Trudeau’s AI minister are acting shocked that a tool built for scale, speed and influence can also scale evil.

This is the liberal pattern in one neat package: unleash systems they do not understand, outsource responsibility to corporations, then arrive late with a press conference and a furrowed brow. Canada gets sold into the global digital experiment first, governed second, maybe never. The issue is not just one deranged shooter. It is a ruling class addicted to centralization, surveillance and fashionable innovation, right up until ordinary people pay the price. Sovereignty means governing technology before it governs us.
