About the story

The Canadian outlet CBC published a piece on whether AI can be regulated at all, that is, whether rules can be set for it, the way they are for medicines, cars, or banks. According to the article's headline, experts believe government intervention is unavoidable.

At the same time, the text available to us contains only this conclusion, so we do not retell the details of the full article here. Read the original on the CBC website to see the experts' arguments.

Why it is difficult

AI changes quickly, and laws often fail to keep up with new technologies. Rules written today may become outdated within a few months.

In addition, AI is being developed in many countries at the same time, and companies can move to where the rules are softer. Therefore, even good laws of a single state do not always produce the full result.

Why it matters to ordinary people

AI already influences what we see online, how the services we use work, and how our data is protected. That is why the question of rules concerns not only programmers or large companies.

Discussion of regulation is ongoing in many countries. It is important to follow it, because the decisions made today will shape how AI is used tomorrow.
