I drew a comparison the last time I talked about the Artificial Intelligence Advisory Council and the Climate Change Advisory Council. In the previous Dáil term we looked a lot at how we penetrate across all of government with a new way of operating, of assessing risks and of developing policy, for example in response to the climate and biodiversity crisis. Lots of new pillars were established there. My sense is there is a lot we could learn from that approach with AI. Obviously, a whole of government response is needed and a whole new architecture is needed to be established. I just make this comment as an observation.
