Well, look, hopefully we will chat again in a few months' time and we'll get a better picture of what exactly is happening and going to happen, not only in the tech sphere, but other sectors as AI continues to be a bit of a disruptor.
Chris Peay of Irish Jobs, thanks so much for joining me here on Newstalk.

This is News Talk.
Yeah, you're very welcome along to Tech Talk.
This is Jess Kelly with you here on News Talk.
Coming up over the next hour as Meta makes further job cuts, citing AI as the reason.
We'll take a closer look at the Irish jobs market and ask where the opportunities for humans lie.
As always, you can email the show techtalk at newstalk.com or you'll find me on Instagram at jesskelleynt.
Later in the show, we'll jump into the inbox to answer some of your tech questions.
And we'll also take a closer look at the letters from Sky to Dodgy Box users.
But I want to start this week with Meta.
Robots are coming for jobs at Meta.
The company says about 10% of its workforce, that's about 8,000 people, were told today they're losing their jobs.
Meta says it is redirecting payroll into artificial intelligence and planning more than $150 billion in AI capital spending this year.
About 7,000 remaining workers will be reassigned to AI roles, while 6,000 planned hires will now go unfilled.
That report from CBS outlining significant job cuts at Meta once again.
Now they had flagged in advance that this was on the cards.
