American Lawyer Magazine quotes Toronto lawyer Justin P’ng in an article on Canada’s new AI regulations.
“With the EU AI regulation, we’re going to see a greater spotlight being shone on [AI-related] harms, because if it passes, which I think it will, we’re going to start seeing more regulatory action, more enforcement and action being taken against people in the AI industry,” said Justin P’ng, an associate in Canada’s law firm Fasken’s privacy and cybersecurity group. “There’s going to be that greater spotlight on it. And I think that’s going to put more pressure on other jurisdictions to act, to regulate something that has not been regulated historically or recently.”
