Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly evolved from experimental labs to boardroom strategies. But with this evolution comes a rising concern—are we building AI responsibly? The ethics of AI focuses on ensuring that intelligent systems act in ways that align with human values, social fairness, and legal norms.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionising various sectors globally, and the legal domain is no exception. In Ireland, the integration of AI into the legal system is reshaping traditional practices, enhancing efficiency, and prompting new regulatory considerations. This article examines the multifaceted impact of AI on Irish law, exploring its applications, challenges, and the evolving legal frameworks governing its use.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming workplaces, raising pressing questions about its impact on gender disparities. Across Europe and the United States, women continue to earn less on average and remain underrepresented in leadership. In 2023, women in the EU earned about 12–13% less per hour than men, and in the US, full-time female workers earned roughly 83 cents for every dollar men earned. Such pay gaps are only one facet of a broader gender gap that also encompasses hiring biases, promotion barriers, and risks from workplace automation. This report examines four major industries – education, technology, healthcare, and finance – to analyse whether AI is helping bridge these gender gaps or exacerbating them.
