OTTAWA — In a joint statement, G7 countries say they will work together to expand the use of artificial intelligence in the public sector.

The idea is to improve the quality of government services and increase government efficiency.

The statement was issued Tuesday as the global summit was wrapping up in Kananaskis, Alta.

It says Canada will use its G7 presidency to host a series of labs looking at barriers to AI adoption in the public sector.
