I will close on this point, which I have made a few times. It is all the more reason Ireland has to be a really strong leader in this space when it comes to the implementation of the regulations that will flow from the AI Act, its implementation, the establishment of the national AI office and all the relevant competent authorities because when it comes to regulation, certainty is where you can get the business side and the social sector side to align. Europe should be able to demonstrate that we are not rowing back on people’s rights because of advanced technology. It should be the other way around. I think Ireland has a really big role to play in that.
