Is artificial intelligence the future of immigration in Canada?

A new program is being introduced into the world of artificial intelligence (AI) that claims that when it launches, it will be the "best artificially and emotionally intelligent virtual immigration advisor in Canada," according to its website. Founded in July of 2017 by CEO Nargiz Mammadova, Destin AI is primed to be the first AI-based chatbot created to guide immigrant applicants through the Canadian immigration process. Destin AI is one of six start up technology companies chosen to compete for a four-month residency with Ryerson University's Legal Innovation Zone (LIZ). The challenge is sponsored by LIZ and the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General, and aims to encourage and support Ontario-based technology companies that want to integrate AI into legal applications. Destin AI offers a self-assessment eligibility checker, helps to prepare necessary documents, and leads users through the steps of their application.
