Kevin Chan, Meta's senior director of global policy strategy, discusses Canada's artificial intelligence strategy and the debate between AI sovereignty and global integration. He makes the case for open-source models as a path for Canada's middle-sized economy, and explores how open-source AI can enhance security, enable local data control, and unlock economic opportunities through application development rather than costly foundation model creation.
