    Ottawa’s Killer Robot Problem

    Host Sam spent a day at Canada's biggest defence trade show asking about autonomous weapons. The good news: Canada says humans must always be part of the decision to kill. The bad news: nobody can define what that means, the US just voted against a UN resolution banning killer robots, and Pete Hegseth wants the Pentagon to be an "AI-first warfighting force." Sam talks to an AI researcher, an underwater robot CEO, a defence contractor who tells it like it is, and an ethicist who somehow remains hopeful.  Have a tip? sam@canadaland.com Host: Noor Azrieh Credits: Aviva Lessard (Senior Producer), Sam Konnert (Host/Producer), Noor Azrieh (Host/Producer), Caleb Thompson (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Max Collins (Director of Audio) Jesse Brown (Editor), Tony Wang (Artwork) Guests: Jason Millar, Randy Goebel Background reading: For Canada, the march of the killer robots is getting hard to avoid | The LogicJudge temporarily blocks Pentagon's blacklist of AI company Anthropic | CBC NewsAt Canada’s biggest weapons show, the soldiers were the target | Globe and MailCanada’s largest arms expo drawing record turnout as Ottawa boosts defence spending Go to Canadaland.com/live to find out more about our live show, June 18th at the Halifax Convention Centre!  Sponsors:  Douglas is giving our listeners a FREE Sleep Bundle with each mattress purchase.

    A Cohere Founder on What A.I. Critics Get Wrong

    Last week, Mark Carney announced his big A.I. strategy. Two billion dollars to support creating jobs, providing free A.I. literacy training, and protection against some of the potential harms and risks around A.I., especially with kids. Oh, and he wants to build a world-leading supercomputer.  Canada's leading A.I. company is Cohere. Cohere isn't like OpenAI or xAI or Anthropic or any of those other well-known large language model companies. They're not public facing. They don't do image generation or music generation, or tell you what recipe you can make with the leftovers in your fridge. They develop private models for specific companies trained in part on that company's private data. RBC, Bell, Salesforce, just to name a few. Their current valuation sits at $7 billion.  Cohere's co-founder is a 33 year-old indie rockstar named Nick Frosst. He joins host Stephen Marche to discuss Canada's A.I. sector, his band, Star Trek, and those students booing A.I. at convocations.

    What the Media (Including Us) Got Wrong About Residential School Graves

    The Globe and Mail’s editorial board calls the initial reporting on Kamloops residential school graves a “failure of journalism.”  Five years later, debate continues over small errors in the language used to report on the preliminary findings of an investigation into unmarked graves.  Is the Globe’s decision to address these issues productive or will it fuel denial of the impact of residential schools on Indigenous  communities?  Host: Jesse Brown Credits: James Nicholson (Producer), Kallan Lyons(Associate Producer and Fact Checking), Caleb Thompson (Mixing and Mastering), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor) Guest: Harrison Lowman Further reading:  There is no reconciliation without truth - The Globe and Mail#786 Digging For Doubt - CANADALAND [Podcast]#1362 The Truth About Residential School Graves - CANADALAND [Podcast]The search for graves at Tk’emlups, five years on - The Decibel [YouTube] Kamloops residential school survivors recall students going missing, digging of graves in orchard - CBC [YouTube] ‘Horrible History’: Mass Grave of Indigenous Children Reported in Canada - The New York TimesSAY WHAT?: Ranking the Top Ten most painful English speakers in Canadian politics - Western StandardTim Hortons to dial back use of Temporary Foreign Worker program, aims to hire 10,000 locally - The Globe and Mail'Where’s the melt?'

    BONUS: Local Legends and Lore

    As journalists, our work brings us to stories that fall into one large category: the public interest. If something is happening in your community that people need to know about, it’s our job to tell it. But of course, there are many other interesting stories that we would probably never publish. So we wanted to hear your stories, the ones that might not be fit for print, but have a good hook, a good twist — something memorable. And you came out swingin’. From dog bartenders to student teacher relationships that allegedly became a blockbuster film starring Judy Dench and Cate Blanchett. Oh, and the COVID police. All that and more. Host: Sam Konnert Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Producer), Tony Wang (Executive Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Publisher) Photo: Digitally Edited by Tristan Capacchione, using material from Boko Shots and ELEVATE  Additional music by Audio Network To learn more about all of our live events, including the upcoming show in Halifax, go to https://canadaland.com/live This show is available exclusively to Canadaland supporters.

    Mark Carney's First Big Failure

    Carney’s big address on antisemitism didn’t amount to much.  Acknowledging what he called a “crisis,” Carney spoke at a Toronto synagogue, highlighting measures taken to address antisemitism in Canada, including changes in hate crimes laws and a council that will study the problem.  Jewish Canadians expecting tangible action were disappointed, so why did he bother? NOTE: This episode makes use of generative A.I. for the following purpose: voice cloning to correct an error in the original recording in which the group Al Aqsa Martyr's Brigade was initially misidentified. Host: Jesse Brown Credits: James Nicholson (Producer), Kallan Lyons(Associate Producer and Fact Checking), Caleb Thompson (Mixing and Mastering), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor) Guest: Harrison Lowman Further reading:  Prime Minister Carney highlights new measures to combat antisemitism and support Canada’s Jewish community - Government of Canada LIVE: Combatting Antisemitism • EN DIRECT : Lutter contre l'antisémitisme [YouTube] Opinion: Mark Carney, antisemitism is not a public relations problem | National Post NP View: What Jewish Canadians need to hear from Mark Carney The United States Should Offer Asylum to Canadian Jews - Flashpoints & Frontlines [Substack] Opinion | The Star tried something with AI it had never done before.

    Carney Wants Your Data. Why Won't Big Tech Give it to Him?

    This is the Liberal government’s second attempt at passing lawful access legislation. Last year, the government pushed Bill C-2, their marquee border security bill that didn’t even make it to committee because of the backlash. But now, Bill C-22 is here, and things are feeling a little deja vu. Host Noor Azrieh asks Robert Diab what new powers this bill actually creates. Why are tech companies, privacy advocates, and our allies so worried? Host: Noor Azrieh Credits: Aviva Lessard (Senior Producer), Sam Konnert (Host/Producer), Noor Azrieh (Host/Producer), Caleb Thompson (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Max Collins (Director of Audio) Jesse Brown (Editor), Tony Wang (Artwork) Guests: Robert Diab Background reading: The Lawful Access Two-Headed Surveillance Monster: How Bill C-22 Went Off the Rails – Michael GeistLawful access bill could lead to exit from Canada, major VPN provider says - National – Global NewsWhy the U.S. is noticing this Canadian security bill – CBC NewsSignal warns it would pull out of Canada if made to comply with lawful access bill – The Globe and MailMeta joins Apple in opposing Canada’s digital wiretapping bill – The LogicFacing mounting backlash, Anandasangaree says U.S. tech companies are 'misinterpreting' his lawful access bill – CBC News Sponsors:  Douglas is giving our listeners a FREE Sleep Bundle with each mattress purchase.

    Introducing the Nuance: Chrystia Freeland on Trump and Putin

    Trump and Putin both hate Chrystia Freeland. But her ability to unite world leaders under a single banner isn't her greatest accolade.  Freeland is quite simply one of the most acrcomplished public servants in Canada's history. For starters, she was the first woman to serve as finance minister. She helped introduce $10 a day daycare in this country. She was also instrumental in the fall of the Trudeau government, and currently she runs the Rhodes Scholarship and works as an economic advisor for Ukraine.  But more than any of that, Freeland has been one of the closest observers of globalization over the past 30 years. She saw its birth as a journalist in Russia in the 1990s, and she saw its death while working as deputy prime minister for Canada in the 2020s. Chrystia Freeland joins us today to talk about that front row seat at the rise and seeming demise of globalization.  This conversation is the launch of our upcoming speakers series The Nuance. It's a simple idea: important conversations on complex subjects with informed guests in front of a live audience. Host: Stephen Marche Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor & Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher) Fact checking by Julian Abraham Photo: U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Canada Sponsors:  oxio: Head over to https://canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free!  Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at https://shopify.ca Article: Article is offering our listeners $50 off your first purchase of $100 or more.
