Is that a reasonable fear?

This is moving at a rate of knots, Gavin, not just for Irish politics, but for everyone's politics.

So there's an argument that the European Union has actually missed the boat and is caught in a, a, an arms race on AI between the United States and China.

And President Trump, in one of his, his, uh, press appearances at Doonbeg, kind of made clear what he was thinking about regulation, kind of get out of the way, like, this is a race to win.

So, uh, Irish politics i- is trying to keep up, just like politics everywhere else.

I, I was with the Taoiseach two years ago, um, last month, when he met Sam Altman of OpenAI.

OpenAI have announced new jobs for, for Ireland, uh, today.

That's not the same argument

God, and, and do, is it a lifetime of checks and constant monitoring now since you recover?

No, I'm, I'm discharged.

Uh, I, I had an aggressive, uh, type of cancer, which they told me after, when I was out the gate.

It was on my neck, but my mom had died of a brain tumor, so they were very, very nervous about my brain stem.

So I had very aggressive six months of effectively being kind of locked up and locked in and very aggressive chemo, but I, I've never looked back, and the team in St. James's and Professor Stassun, Professor Vandenberghe, Burkitt's ward, uh, they put me back together and sent me back out into the world, and I've never looked back.

Minus the electoral success.

Yeah.

Look, I, I went into work in government- Do you have as many languages? [laughs] No.
