説明を展開
Canada's edge over Singapore is "deep learning birthright + research talent network + safety leadership": (1) academic legacy of Bengio (Mila), Hinton (Vector), Sutton (Amii) — Canada produced more deep learning Turing Award laureates than any other country; (2) Mila + Vector + Amii cumulatively employ ~3 000 AI researchers, comparable to Singapore's entire AI research workforce; (3) CAISI is a global anchor for AI safety research alongside US AISI and UK AISI — Singapore has no comparable safety institute; (4) Pan-Canadian AI Strategy (2017) gives Canada a six-year head start on AI policy framing. Weaknesses: brain drain to US (Cohere, ServiceNow Canada AI labs are exceptions, not the rule), AIDA shelved leaves a governance gap, weak commercialisation (research-to-startup conversion is below US rate), no homegrown AI giant. Assessment: Canada and Singapore optimise opposite ends — Canada is research-heavy, Singapore is deployment-heavy. Singapore's AI Verify exports faster than Canada's research papers commercialise.
