AI Minister Evan Solomon debriefs Power & Politics on his meeting with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, following revelations that the company banned the Tumbler Ridge, B.C., mass shooter's ChatGPT account but didn't report it to police. Solomon says Altman agreed to safety requests including the direct reporting of threats to the RCMP and said Altman assured him a review of past flags for threats is already underway. Plus, Conservative foreign affairs critic Michael Chong accuses Prime Minister Mark Carney of making 'contradictory' statements about supporting both U.S.-Israeli strikes and de-escalation with Iran — but Chong affirms that supporting the strikes was the right move for Canada.
