I am conscious of time and want to move on to the whole area of artificial intelligence. It is interesting, when people are being asked about what the heads of Bill say about different aspects of it, that I just asked Copilot what the Bill says about it. It is quite interesting as it relates to performance commitments and so on.

This relates to the issue Ms Veldon and Mr. Hughes raised around AI. The response of media organisations has differed, from the Australian tech tax to The New York Times suing OpenAI and so on. What should be the response of the State? Should it be leaving it up to the witnesses' private organisations to deal with that €1 billion-plus coming out of the State? Should we be looking at taxation measures? What is the more effective approach?
