π€π **GENERATIVE AI SAFETY: Think Before You Type!**
Generative AI tools can help us write, analyze, summarize, and create content faster than ever. However, entering sensitive information into public AI platforms can expose your organization, customers, and personal data to unnecessary risks.
β οΈ **What is the Risk?**

πΈ Passwords, API keys, access tokens, or credentials
