Project Overview

Problem Statement

As technology evolves rapidly, there is an urgent need for a responsible tech ecosystem in Canada that can address the ethical implications and societal impacts of new technologies. The Good-Bot non-profit seeks to create a Canadian Responsible Tech Hub to map out the nation's capacity to respond to emerging issues in technology. The lack of transparency, regulatory challenges, and insufficient tools have made it difficult to fully understand the risks and gaps in the tech landscape.

Project Objectives

  • Map Canada's responsible tech organizations, policies, and key experts
  • Develop machine-generated summaries of tech-related policies and litigation
  • Create dynamic dashboards visualizing the gaps in responsible tech initiatives
  • Facilitate ongoing updates and collaboration through community engagement
