2) Scope of Permitted Uses of Generative AI
The AI Officer shall maintain documentation specifying use cases in
which generative AI is permitted, prohibited, or requires strict review
within the organization.
Relying on generative AI for tasks that strongly reflect an
organization’s policy positions, or for work involving sensitive
personal data or security concerns, may be particularly problematic.
The use of generative AI for such tasks should therefore be
restricted in advance or made subject to strict review procedures. By
clearly defining in advance which uses are permitted, which require
heightened scrutiny, and which are not allowed, organizations
can enable their members to use generative AI in a consistent and
principled manner. Of course, the scope of appropriate generative
AI use will vary depending on each organization’s activities and
values. For example, some organizations may conclude that
relying on generative AI to draft official statements that express
the organization’s core messages is inappropriate. Others may
determine that, where the organization has issued statements
on similar issues many times before and where final review is
conducted by humans, limited use of generative AI assistance is
acceptable.
Each organization is free to adopt its own format, but one practical
approach is to maintain and share a written list that categorizes
use cases into permitted uses, uses requiring strict review, and
