Smith is rolling out the red carpet. Sure, fine. The entire government is all in on "AI for all". I'm no fan of Smith but she far from the only pusher of AI here.

Did you read the article? She's far from "rolling out the red carpet" she's stacking the deck so the province profits at the expense of business and the consumer (her constituents). Ai is the purchaser of her graft, but that's irrelevant. The story is her strong-arming her way into profitability as a government.

Whatever, it's Alberta, the motto of the Province is "Anyone with a Blue lawn sign".
