AI is often framed as both an opportunity and a challenge. This session cuts through the noise to explore what AI actually is (and isn’t), why AI literacy is becoming a core capability across all roles, and what the new EU AI Act means for organisations operating in Ireland.

What is covered:

  • AI explained in practical, non-technical terms
  • Why AI literacy is now a business-critical skill
  • The EU AI Act demystified — regulatory implications for Irish organisations
  • How literacy can help organisations navigate both opportunities and risks

What you’ll learn leave with:

  • A clear understanding of AI literacy and its relevance across functions
  • Awareness of the regulatory landscape and its practical impact
  • Key questions to bring back to your teams and leadership discussions

If AI is shaping the future of work, AI literacy must shape how we respond
