A kind of ‘touchy-feelicle’, built around a powerful AI system (called ‘yui’) designed to ‘build a relationship’ with the human user.

Right now.
The Joint Committee on the Future Funding of Domestic Water Services is under way with representatives of the Department of Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government, Irish Water, and the Commission for Energy Regulation in attendance.
The chief executive of Irish Water’s parent company Ervia, Michael McNicholas just gave his opening statement.
Readers may recall how the Irish Mail on Sunday, on November 23, 2104, reported that Mr McNicholas, the former CEO of NTR, had shares worth €1million in NTR, which made €2million a year from Irish Water contracts.
It also reported that NTR owned 50% of Celtic Anglian Water Ltd (CAW) which had contracts with Irish Water for meter installation and waste water worth €4million a year.
Good times.
