Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Businesses: Discussion
Mr. Eoin O'Reilly:
My previous statement was not necessarily related to influencing the Act but was more about understanding it and translation. I do not think all the details are yet fully clear, and we are working through them. Similar to what Ms O'Meara and Mr. Lee said, we have the Act and have frameworks around how our clients are thinking about responsible AI, the kinds of steps they need to take and the activities that will need to be in place to be able to demonstrate compliance with the Act, but we are at a fairly early stage of that. The next 12 months are going to tell a lot.
As we work through matters and engage more proactively on questions from clients, further clarity will start to emerge.
