“It's impossible, though, to expect school districts, or provinces, to create their own, disparate and disconnected approaches to the safe, secure adoption of AI. Instead, AI safety will need to be a collective responsibility shared by schools, students, families, research institutions, industry and governments.” Read the piece

Only opinion columns and editorials are scored. Each piece is read twice by a language model, which records the author's own stance on a policy topic only where the piece argues one, with a quote that must appear in the piece. An author's position on a topic is the average of their pieces, weighted by the model's confidence. News reporting is listed but never scored.
