GPAI is an international multi-stakeholder initiative on AI that was founded in 2020 by Canada, France, and 13 other partner countries with the mission of promoting the responsible development and use of AI through practical projects, (e.g., reports on scaling responsible AI solutions and algorithmic transparency). At the the time of the creation of GPAI, Canada and France each launched ESCs to coordinate and support diverse groups of international experts who would work on the projects. CEIMIA is a non-profit organisation and Canada?s ESC dedicated to supporting GPAI.
