Ireland's first local government GenAI Lab leads the way

Dublin City Council is preparing its AI strategy for publication in Q3 2026, combining a two-tier governance structure, mandatory staff training, and Ireland's first Generative AI Lab dedicated to local government. The lab gives staff a structured environment to test AI tools and develop use cases before wider deployment. The strategy prioritises human oversight, transparency, privacy, fairness, accountability, and security from the outset.
