Joint Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence and Disability: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Mr. John Sherwin:

The specific advice we would want to give would be the same message around co-creation. The office should have the input of disabled people in developing its remit, functions, staffing and services to bring these topics to the table. This should not only concern disabled people in terms of potential staffing but also engagement with DPOs at a policy level. Much of that will need some specific discussion about that office, but a very good place to start off would be with the attitude of inclusion in terms of planning.
