View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 295 and 296 together.
My Department’s approach to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is aligned to the Guidelines for the Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence in the Public Service and guidance provided by the National Cyber Security Centre. The Department does not use specific AI tools for graphic design or similar projects. There are no agencies or other bodies under the aegis of the Department.
