You're out of time, Mr. Sorbara.

I'll just yield myself a little bit of time for a follow-up question to Mr. Shee.

I'm just trying to understand what's the scale of the issue you're hoping for Parliament to address when it comes to the exploitative labour used in the AI supply chain.

I'm thinking out loud. Just today, I watched the Google DeepMind Gemini prototype that came out. It seems to me like maybe that ship has sailed and AI has already gotten to the point where you would think it's not that labour-intensive.

I'm just trying to understand what the scale is.
