Welcome to AI - Magnified with Matt Cooper , a Magnified Plus series that looks to examine the present possibilities and future impact of AI here in Ireland.
Joining Matt this week are:

Feargal O’Rourke retired from professional services firm PwC in October 2023 after 37 years there, the last 8 of which he was Managing Partner. He has worked in the Foreign Direct Investment area for almost all of his professional career, focussing mainly, but not exclusively, on companies from the West Coast of the US setting up in Ireland and Europe. He was appointed as chairperson of the I.D.A earlier this year.
In the spiode we hear from Kieran about Microsoft's approach and investment in AI here in ireland, the role of proper data governance and working with Chat GPT. Feargal offers insights into the investment opportunities for Irish companies with A.I, how politicians are using it and whether Ireland is being too complacent in keeping up with developments.
