The AI Act is very much about product regulation and much less about the operation within businesses and workplaces. I welcome what the witnesses have said.

Much of the research on AI is about the expected future use. I have not seen any comprehensive assessment or survey of the current use within workplaces. The witnesses are living and breathing this every day. What share of businesses have adopted AI in terms of a whole-of-business use in terms of output? What share of businesses are using it to augment existing tasks? It would be very helpful to get a sense of the picture in Ireland.
