I thought Dr. O'Sullivan said "inter-logical". I am sorry. I misheard. I just wanted to be clear.

She also mentioned another topic that we also are interested in, that of bullying. She asked whether surveillance in some shape or form would have an impact on bullying in a negative or positive way. If I heard Dr. O'Sullivan correctly, she said 11% of people stated it helped. I am interested in the extent of the bullying that is going on, which she might have come across either informally or formally. Not everybody is impacted by bullying and we hope it is at a very low level, but if 11% of people felt that they were helped by surveillance or monitoring in a bullying situation, that is interesting.

To get back to AI, and it is a little off today's theme, we have been told that AI has the potential to have a massive impact on employment and jobs in certain areas, in particular banking. Does Dr. O'Sullivan have any views on that? Does she plan to do any work on that or has she done any work on it? It is moving so quickly now but its impact on jobs is something I am quite concerned about. There are positives to it, like everything else, but it is also something we need to keep an eye on.
