“Let’s not just observe the AI era. Let’s own it.” Inspiring stuff from the founders of @cohere @aidangomez @1vnzh @nickfrosst theglobeandmail.com/business…

For decades, Canada invested to build the research foundations that made modern AI possible. Now we have to build, train, and scale what comes next here at home. Canada's new national AI strategy is an important step toward that goal, and Cohere is proud to be part of the national effort. Let’s build a better, stronger Canada. 🇨🇦

"If you don't know who Cohere is, you will" - Prime Minister @MarkJCarney 🇨🇦

Say hello to the Cohere Centre! 🇨🇦 We’re proud to partner with Ottawa’s premier convention and event facility as it enters an exciting new chapter. The Cohere Centre will serve as a hub where leaders from business, government, technology, and the community come together right in the heart of Canada’s capital.

Exciting news for the future of AI! @cohere and Aleph Alpha are partnering to build a global sovereign AI platform. As demand for AI grows, we are accelerating the development of next-generation frontier models while upholding strong standards for data security and ethical AI.

Cohere and Aleph Alpha are joining forces to build a leading sovereign AI platform, anchored in Canada and strengthened by Germany. This is an important moment for Canada, Germany, and democratic countries that want trusted AI options built with our values, our workers, our IP, and our data in mind. Sovereignty is not solitude. It means building with trusted partners, from a position of strength. 🇨🇦🇩🇪 Cohere et Aleph Alpha unissent leurs forces pour bâtir une plateforme d’IA souveraine, ancrée au Canada et renforcée par l’Allemagne. Il s’agit d’un moment crucial pour le Canada, l’Allemagne et les pays démocratiques qui souhaitent disposer de solutions d’IA de confiance, conçues dans le respect de nos valeurs, de nos travailleurs, de notre propriété intellectuelle et de nos données. La souveraineté n’est pas synonyme d’isolement. Elle consiste à construire avec des partenaires de confiance, en s’appuyant sur une position de force.

Germany is the world’s third largest economy after the US and China, and the economic powerhouse of Europe. We are thrilled to have Canada and Germany as deep strategic partners at our back! 🇨🇦 🇩🇪

Martin Brian Mulroney changed the way we thought about ourselves and our country. His leadership style was inclusive yet decisive. His political agenda was bold and transformational. An attentive and supportive mentor to many and a cherished friend.
