This is a regular noun formation from the adjective 'irresponsive', meaning the state or quality of being irresponsive.
Etymology
Irresponsiveness is formed from ir- 'not' and the same root as respond or response, so it can be understood as 'not replying' or 'not reacting'. That is why the word also describes a state where someone or something does not react, reply, or give a response.
