This system uses machine learning to assign a risk probability score to outgoing export shipments, helping Canada Border Services Agency officers decide which shipments to inspect for potential non-compliance. Officers use the score alongside their own knowledge and other systems — it does not make decisions on its own. The system involves personal information (such as business numbers and shipment data) but individuals are not currently informed that AI is being used.
