Artificial intelligence : current situation, risks, and outlook / Sarah Lemelin-Bellerose, Economics, Resources and International Affairs Division, Parliamentary Information and Research Service.: YM32-5/2019-06E-PDF

"Artificial intelligence (AI) has developed rapidly in recent years, and significant social and economic impacts are already being felt. Major companies such as Facebook and Amazon have already been implicated in data collection scandals. Machine automation raises fears no longer just about massive job losses, but also the emergence of other risks, such as potentially biased decisions by machines. This rapid and potentially invasive growth of AI raises questions about the federal government's current and future role in overseeing its development. The purpose of this publication is to provide a snapshot of the current AI situation, the associated risks and the future outlook"--Introduction, page 1.
