Post a short list of what stays off limits

People adopt AI faster when they know exactly where the line is, so write down what the tool should never touch on its own. I keep a short version of this list for my own work, and I've noticed it does more to calm a nervous team than any reassurance I could give them out loud. That might mean anything involving money moving out the door, sensitive personal details, or a message to an upset client without a human reading it first. A short, plain list removes the guesswork that makes cautious people freeze up and stops eager people from going further than they should. Post it somewhere everyone can see it, not buried in a long policy nobody reads. This list also protects you, since it shows you thought through the risks instead of hoping nothing goes wrong. Update it as the team learns more, treating it like a living document rather than a one time rule that never changes again.

Try this today: write a five line list of tasks your team should never hand to AI without a human check, and pin it somewhere the whole team will actually see it.
