I spoke this morning to Claire Byrne on @rteradio1.bsky.social about the newly formed Oireachtas Committee on Artificial Intelligence. Big tech will lobby but they should seek out and listen carefully to the voices of our society on what we want Ireland to look like as a result of the AI revolution.

Could "sitting on the fence" for some policies be a strategy to attract floating voters? whichcandidate.ie and Vote Smart tools have been popular with voters in #GE24. Some voters we surprised at unexpected matches. But why? WhichCandidate.ie uses a four-option preference system. #ge #GEIreland 1/6

Relying on LLMs without oversight remains an issue for all professionals. www.lawsociety.ie/globalassets...
