Generative AI can accelerate professional work, but inappropriate use can expose confidential information, undermine professional judgement and create uncertainty over accountability. This advanced course examines how AI can be used productively while protecting sensitive information and preserving the standards expected of professional decision-makers. It is particularly relevant to environments handling client, employee, commercial or otherwise confidential information.

Participants examine information classification, data minimisation, AI input decisions, output verification and the limits of delegating cognitive work to automated systems. Case-based exercises explore situations in which convenience, time pressure or apparently convincing AI output may conflict with professional obligations. The course helps participants establish disciplined boundaries between AI assistance and accountable human judgement.
