Federal government taps Cohere to work on use of AI in public service

The federal government has signed an agreement with a Canadian artificial intelligence company to identify areas where AI can enhance public service operations. Cohere will look at how its products can improve federal public services, said Sofia Ouslis, a spokesperson for Artificial Intelligence Minister Evan Solomon. The agreement sets up early-stage collaboration between the federal government and the Toronto-based tech company, she said. Cohere develops large language models, a type of generative AI focused on language, and the company specializes in AI services for businesses. The focus is on identifying where Cohere's Canadian-built AI tools can improve public services, making them faster, smarter and more secure. While there are no formal deadlines attached, the government sees this as a priority and is moving quickly to explore real-world applications, Ouslis said. Ouslis said the agreement does not include a financial component. Cohere said in a blog post (new window) Tuesday it signed the agreement to transform the public sector with our secure, sovereign AI technology. Accelerating AI adoption will deliver massive productivity and efficiency gains to enhance public services and modernize operations, it said. A government news release (new window) also said the agreement with Cohere involves looking at building Canada's commercial capabilities to use and export AI, but did not provide details about what that effort will involve. Enlarge image (new window) AI and Digital Innovation Minister Evan Solomon makes an announcement during a visit to Scale AI, in Montreal, on July 10. Photo: The Canadian Press / Christopher Katsarov Using artificial intelligence to increase efficiency in the public service was one of Prime Minister Mark Carney's election promises. Carney also promised to cap the size of the public service, and most departments and agencies have since been asked to find program spending cuts of up to 15 per cent. The government news release said AI has the potential to significantly improve government operations and services for Canadians, and that Ottawa is seeking to harness the power of this transformative technology while building a vibrant made-in-Canada technology sector.

Real's July Agent Survey: Agent Optimism Index Jumps to Four-Month High as Transaction Activity Shows Signs of Improvement

Article content MIAMI — The Real Brokerage Inc. (NASDAQ: REAX, 'Real'), a leading real estate technology platform redefining the industry through innovation and culture, today released results from its July 2025 Agent Survey. The data shows a significant rebound in agent optimism and an improving trend in home sales activity relative to June, despite ongoing affordability concerns, and a continued shift in negotiating leverage toward buyers. It also highlights the critical importance of service, communication, and responsiveness when agents advise clients on which mortgage and title service providers to work with. Article content 'Our July survey confirms that the ongoing pressure from affordability and macroeconomic concerns is cementing a firm shift to a buyer's market across the industry,' said Tamir Poleg, Chairman and CEO of Real. 'The survey also shows that clients lean heavily on their agents for advice and guidance on which ancillary service providers to use, indicating that providers who deliver transparent communication and timely service stand out. We believe in the future, greater adoption of technology and AI can enhance service levels and better address this critical need for clients.' Article content Key Survey Findings: Market Trends and Insights Article content Agent Optimism Rebounds to Highest Level in Four Months: Real's Agent Optimism Index, which measures agents' 12-month outlook for their local markets, jumped significantly to 67.2 in July from 59.5 in June. This marks the highest reading in four months, with 63% of agents feeling more optimistic compared to the prior month, including 15% who felt significantly more optimistic. (Scores are weighted on a 0-100 point scale, with scores above 50 indicating net optimism and scores below 50 signaling net pessimism.) Transaction Activity Shows Gradual Improvement: Real's Transaction Growth Index, which tracks agent-reported year-over-year changes in home sales activity within their local markets, rose to 49.3 in July, an improvement from 46.2 in June. This suggests that the pace of decline in transaction activity was more moderate in July than in June. The data shows that while 37% of agents saw fewer transactions compared to last July, 34% saw an increase, and 29% reported activity that was approximately flat year-over-year. (Note: This index reflects agents' perceptions of local market trends and is not indicative of Real's company-specific transaction volume. Scores are weighted on a 0-100 point scale, with scores above 50 indicating year-over-year growth and scores below 50 signaling a decline.) Markets Continue to Favor Buyers: In July, 52% of agents said their local market favors buyers, up from 48% in June. Only 19% said it favored sellers, a notable drop from 26% in June, with 29% describing conditions as balanced. Affordability and Economic Uncertainty Remain Top Challenges: Affordability continues to be the top challenge for buyers, cited by 58% of agents in July, an increase from 51% in June. Economic uncertainty also remains a significant hurdle, cited by 22% of agents in July, down from 26% in June. Meanwhile, inventory constraints and buyer competition were seen as lesser issues, cited by 12% and 5% of agents, respectively. Article content Key Survey Findings: Agents Role in Recommending Closing Services Providers Article content The survey findings reveal that agents play a critical role in navigating clients throughout a real estate transaction, and their recommendations on mortgage and title service providers hold significant influence over a client's ultimate decision on which provider to choose. Article content Clients Rely More on Agents for Title than Mortgage: A much higher rate of agents (62%) reported that their clients use their recommended title provider nearly always (75%-100% of the time), compared to just 40% who mentioned clients nearly always work with their recommended mortgage provider. This suggests clients are more willing to defer to their agent's judgment for title work, while they are more likely to shop for mortgage rates. Service Is Everything: Responsiveness and Communication are the Key: When asked to name the single most important factor in recommending a closing services provider, agents gave the following responses: For Mortgage Services: Responsiveness and communication of the loan officer: 55.7% Competitive rates/loan products: 20.8% Speed and certainty of closing: 13.3% Existing relationship with the provider: 10.3% For Title Services: Responsiveness and communication of the title officer: 39.0% Accuracy and efficiency of title work: 29.8% Existing relationship with the provider: 16.1% Speed and certainty of title clearance and closing: 15.2% What Would Make an Agent Recommend a New Provider? The survey reveals that beyond pricing, the most compelling reasons that would prompt agents to switch closing services partners fall into four key buckets: Speed: Faster and more reliable closings are a primary motivator, cited by 29.9% of agents for mortgage providers and 25.7% for title providers. Dedicated Support: Having a dedicated support team with proactive communication specifically for that agent's brokerage is a major driver, selected by 25.9% of agents for mortgage and 26.3% for title. Technology: Superior, easy-to-use technology is also a significant factor for both, at 14.7% for mortgage and 17.8% for title. Seamless integration with brokerage platforms was a lesser but still present factor. Nothing: A notable percentage of agents said nothing currently listed would compel them to switch from their current provider, at 15.2% for mortgage and 18.6% for title. Article content A full summary of these results can be found on Real's investor relations website at Article content About the Survey Article content The Real Brokerage July 2025 Agent Survey included responses from over 550 real estate agents across the United States and Canada and was conducted between July 31, 2025 and August 14, 2025. Responses to questions regarding transaction growth and agent optimism were calibrated on a 0-100 point index scale, with readings above 50 indicating an improving trend, whereas readings below 50 indicate a declining trend. Responses are meant to capture industry-level information and are not meant to serve as an indication of Real's company-specific growth trends. Additionally, given the smaller sample size, there can be greater variability in Canada index results on a month-to-month basis.
