I think that's still the same map; British and Irish citizens have reciprocal rights to live, study, and work in either country from the Common Travel Area agreement. For example, the relevant Irish guidance is at dfa.ie/brexit/getting-irelan…

As far as I understand, other EU citizens have the right to live / study / work in Ireland without restriction, and vice versa (though they would go through passport control). Other EU citizens would *not* have the right to live or work in the UK, including Northern Ireland.
