Thank you, Madam Chair.
Welcome to the committee, Mr. Bilodeau. This is the first time you and your colleagues have appeared before the committee, and it will certainly not be the last.
I'll continue to talk about artificial intelligence. We've just completed a study, and my colleague Mr. Myles has already spoken to you about this. I'm just wondering. Obviously, we are seeing very serious and significant impacts on the cultural sector and cultural industries at all levels. It's no secret that artificial intelligence affects just about every aspect of society. All socio-economic sectors are affected, directly or indirectly, by artificial intelligence.
However, Minister Solomon has set up an advisory council made up of experts from the artificial intelligence community. You talked about that. Under that advisory council, there was a task force that came up with different recommendations and conclusions. However, no one represents the cultural sector and cultural industries on the advisory council or the task force. I am very concerned to see that, in such important work and with such serious repercussions on the cultural sector, experts in the cultural sector have not been included in these considerations from the outset.
We're very close, at the conclusion of this study, to providing a report. I'm wondering if you would support a recommendation for a task force to be set up under the supervision of that advisory council to implement AI strategies, specifically with respect to the impacts it has on cultural industries. Do you think that would be a good idea? The structure already exists, in a way.
