説明を展開
CAISI (Canadian AI Safety Institute) was established in 2024 with CAD $50m initial funding from Budget 2024. Mission: frontier AI safety research, model evaluations, red-teaming, international cooperation with US AISI / UK AISI / Singapore AI Safety Institute. Located within ISED, CAISI partners with Mila / Vector / Amii for research execution. Assessment: CAISI is Canada's most direct response to the 2023-2024 frontier AI safety wave (post-Bletchley AI Safety Summit). Its strategic value is higher than its CAD $50m budget suggests — being the third country (after US, UK) to set up an AISI gives Canada a permanent seat in the international AI safety governance network. Singapore established its AI Safety Institute in 2024 too; the Canada-Singapore-UK-US safety institute network is the de-facto governance backbone.
