On December 3, the government of Quebec announced $7.5 million in funding for the creation of an聽(OIISIAN). The collaborative project will bring top experts in Quebec together to provide an interdisciplinary and intersectoral perspective on the impact of AI and digital technology on individuals, organizations, and communities. Together, the participants of OIISIAN will suggest solutions and provide direction to key decision makers.
The project, led by Universit茅 Laval, will collaborate with university and college partners, research centres, organizations, businesses, government institutions, and groups in Quebec, across Canada, and around the world.
