AI has moved from novelty to necessity, with tools like ChatGPT now embedded in daily workflows. Used well, they can significantly boost productivity, speed up coding, improve translations and much more.

It is also important to note that they may confidently present misinformation.

They cover the benefits of large language models, real world examples of misuse, the growing importance of AI policies and practical steps to control risk without losing innovation.
