LawZero gets up to C$300M for safe AI

LawZero received a commitment of up to CAD $300 million in joint Canadian-German funding to develop its safe-by-design Scientist AI. The funding announcement says the money will expand its research team, open a Berlin office, and build sovereign compute in Canada with Hypertec and 5C; “up to” means a headline ceiling, not cash already spent. Builders tracking safety infrastructure should file this beside Washington’s pre-deployment testing push: public money is now backing an alternative to goal-driven frontier agents, but that technical claim remains a roadmap until independent evaluations arrive.
