Stephen LeDrew sits down with David Signoretti, the CEO of the Canadian based Medical AI firm Xstrat to discuss how AI, originally invented in Toronto, largely moved south to the U.S., leaving Canada behind on economic benefits. They explore why Canada missed out—from slow bureaucracy to decades of underinvestment—and the potential societal impact as AI transforms jobs, human interaction, and economic opportunity. Signoretti warns about the risks of overreliance on AI, the possibility of mass unemployment, and even a dystopian future where society struggles to manage virtual environments and autonomous systems.
