Joint Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence
Introduction to Artificial Intelligence: Discussion (Resumed)
2:00 am
Paul Murphy (Dublin South West, Solidarity)
I will come back in and maybe Mr. Blanchfield will respond to it. Dr. Scanlon discussed the risks and balance in her opening statement but what she is actually saying is that we need to have the infrastructure in order for Ireland to be a leader. I do not hear much of the risks she has outlined. The answer I am hearing from her is to go full steam ahead. I have not heard much in terms of what she thinks we should be doing to not have all the negative things that are happening here. Her answers were that we need to invest in infrastructure, real-time understanding and AI literacy. How are we dealing with the negative effects?
