The data backs it up, folks! Ottawa’s commuters are paying some of the highest transit costs in all of Canada. For an adult transit pass, every year, it’s a whopping $1,662 CAD. And just for a one-way ride, it’s still $4.10. Only three other cities have higher rates than that. So how much does it cost you to put your faith in the arms of OC Transpo? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Then, we shift gears to a very serious and emotional story in British Columbia. Disclaimer: This story contains elements of violence and suicide. So if you have young kids tuning in, they probably shouldn’t hear this part. Earlier this week, the B.C. government announced they were suing OpenAI following a tragic mass shooting at Tumbler Ridge, and the actions that weren’t taken by the company. And now, a new report from Mother Jones alleges that ChatGPT helped the Tumbler Ridge killer plan February’s massacre. The story describes alleged interactions in which the shooter asked about guns and tactics. Furthermore, ChatGPT allegedly told the killer how to avoid present-day safeguards. Tech analyst Carmi Levy pays us a visit in Hour 3.
