A big thank you to Carla Roets of Crintus & Co. a valued Chamber member, for sharing her expertise with our members at our recent EU AI Act session. 👏

The aim was simple: help Donegal businesses understand what they need to do, without spending money on things they don’t need.💪

Three key takeaways for businesses:
✅ Know what AI your team is using - from ChatGPT and Copilot to AI features built into everyday software.
✅ Put clear guidelines in place. Decide what tools staff can use and what information should never be entered into them.
✅ Train your team. Make sure people understand the tools, their limitations and the risks involved.

Carla has also generously shared a practical guide and template with attendees to help them work through the steps.
It’s great to see members sharing their knowledge and helping other local businesses navigate the new requirements. Thank you, Carla! 👏
