You really did say that you are aware of the risk of discrimination inherent in artificial intelligence. Right afterwards, you said that you are comfortable with that risk. That's what we understood.
That scares me a little. We felt that there was a risk of discrimination, and now we have clear evidence of it. It's not even a risk anymore.
That means that the department is, to an extent, accepting a risk of discrimination. As I have just told you, we have evidence of it. There are huge disparities in the acceptance rates of French-speaking students from certain countries in West Africa.
If we are comfortable with the risk of discrimination, a lot of students from West Africa listening to you will wonder whether it's worth the trouble to apply to Canada. They will look to another country instead.
