Shadow AI, job worries and the culture that answers both
What you’ll be able to do by the end:
- 1Respond honestly to a colleague’s worry about their job, using what the evidence shows.
- 2Choose conditions that help good AI practice spread, and plan a ten-minute sharing ritual.
- 3Place your organisation on the trust ladder, say who should decide how far AI may reach, and when to bring in technical help.
- 4Weigh the evidence on AI’s energy use, explain your position, and check an AI estimate against the published ranges.
- 5Apply responsible habits, including how your organisation pays for AI, to a team’s plan for AI use.
The moment it clicks
“Improvement comes from the people doing the work; my job is to make it safe.”
The rule you’ll keep
Flag mistakes early. Surprises are the real failure.
General training, not advice. Follow your organisation’s policies, and get specialist advice before connecting AI to live systems or letting it act for you. What the course is, and isn’t.
