0:00On this March 20th in Canada, here's what is making headlines. The White House has released a new framework to guide Congress on artificial intelligence policy. It lays out six key principles for lawmakers, focusing on safe and innovative AI development across the country. These principles emphasize protecting children and families, strengthening communities, upholding intellectual property and free speech, boosting, American innovation to lead globally, and preparing the workforce for AI changes. The administration stresses that strong federal leadership is essential to build public trust and how AI shakes daily life and to keep the United. States ahead in this critical technology race. Lawmakers from both parties, along with civil liberties and consumer groups, have called for tougher oversight on AI to address risks from its rapid growth. Meanwhile, President Trump issued an executive order last December to prevent states from creating their own rules, aiming to avoid a confusing, patchwork that could slow progress.
