Yeah, exactly.

That one wasn't real time.

That was pre-recorded because of the TEDx requirements.

But actually, we did one in Zagreb in Croatia just last weekend at a sustainability festival with her in real time with the audience asking her questions.

I mean, I don't know that it'll be funded and supported, but the whole premise of it is not to make money.

The premise of it is to disrupt the industry that's already there.

And we might be a bit cynical about that, but that's not my day job.

You know, I do other things myself.

It's a project that I'm working on.

And the reason that I'm backing it and so interested in it as an AI ethicist is nothing like that exists yet with the premise of designing AI to care for us, to return us back to each other.

And I think it's got great potential.

We're already seeing the sort of the sort of, I suppose, a difference in AI this year.

The Irish government are about to roll out national AI literacy, but they're also through Rethink Ireland putting 1.75 million into AI for social good.

Well, I actually do think we're going to resist AI in all different kinds of ways.

And I think it's interesting you say the easy path, because one of the pitfalls, the biggest pitfalls in AI to me, is the fact that we just defer to it all the time over our human judgment.

That's going to create what's called a cognitive decline.

That's literally a brain drain.

Well, for example, if I decide not to critically engage with AI, if I just say, give me the answer to this, if I'm a student and I say, give me the answer to this or write this for me, we don't have any software at the moment that can detect all of the AI platforms in third level education.

We just don't have the capacity.

It doesn't exist.
