A Vancouver CEO is engineering AI consciousness

👋 Usually in these intros I come up with a way to pull out the themes of the week. This time, though, I’m at a loss. Let’s call it the influence of the spooky season playing havoc on my tidy order.

That said, our Vancouver Tech Journal members got a bumper article this week checking in on what’s happened to Vancouver’s 13 unicorns since 2021 (spoiler: some have TANKED), as well as details on how to apply for $32 million in AI funding for British Columbia. Want to read them? Become a member too!

Beyond that, we’ve reported on new advancements in Vancouver’s quantum tech, separating fact from fiction about SR&ED credits, and what’s happening at Science World.

Now onto today’s briefing. It’s 1,355 words: a three-minute read.
