Editorial perspective
Our everyday perspective: Before pasting your documents into an AI service, check for names, contact details or confidential notes. For experiments, make a separate working copy with invented example data. Also note which service you used. This helps you keep track of material you have shared later on.
This retrospective was prepared on 6 October 2026. It describes the topic at that time; later developments are not fully covered.
