AI dictionary for work
AI policy
Rules for what your team may and may not do with AI.
What it means
An AI policy is a short, clear set of rules about how people may use AI at work: what data can be pasted in, what must be reviewed by a human, and where AI must not be used at all.
Why it matters at work
A one-page policy beats vague fear. It lets people use AI confidently for safe tasks while protecting confidential data and high-stakes decisions.
Beginner mistake
Having no policy, so staff either avoid AI entirely or quietly paste sensitive data into random tools.
Example prompt
Draft a one-page AI use policy for a small team: what is safe to paste, what needs human sign-off, and what is off-limits.
