Handle common ambiguous cases with a simple decision tool.
Lesson
Safety in one paragraph
Do not feed AI real personal data, real customer data, confidential business documents, real financial or medical records, or another person's private communications. Do not use AI outputs as legal, medical, or safety advice. Verify facts before you act on them. Disclose AI generation when it materially affects how the reader will interpret the content.
Privacy: your data and theirs
Assume anything you type into a general AI tool may be reviewed or used. Redact identifiers. In some jurisdictions (France under GDPR, for example), certain data uses need explicit consent — respect that.
Copyright: source and style
Do not use AI to copy a specific artist's style with intent to deceive. Do not use copyrighted characters commercially without permission. Do not present AI-generated content as human-created when that matters (news, journalism, official records).
Ambiguous case checklist
When unsure, ask: whose data is this? Whose work am I imitating? Would this mislead someone who cannot tell it was AI? Am I making a claim I cannot verify? Any 'yes' is a stop-and-reconsider signal.
Example — Personal safety pledge
A learner writes a 5-line personal pledge: I redact identifiers. I verify facts. I label AI images. I do not imitate real artists' styles. I ask a human for legal, medical, and financial decisions.
