Best Practices
Treat it as An Assistant Not a Replacement
Using AI as a tool can certainly help save time but it is critical to view it as a tool and not a whole solution. You need to critically edit AI-generated content for accuracy, to match your brand voice and to ensure that it meets your high standard quality of work.
Security
As with anything on the Internet, while both companies are dedicated to practicing the highest security standards, you need to avoid entering private or proprietary information into AI tools. You can enter placeholders or general information but avoid entering what should not be public information.
