An AI acceptable-use policy should not feel like a legal document nobody opens.

When I help organisations put one in place, I keep it short enough to read and practical enough to use. It should answer four questions:

1) Which AI tools are approved?
2) What data must never be entered?
3) Which tasks require human review, especially decisions affecting customers, employees, finances or safety?
4) How should people report a mistake, concern or suspected data exposure?

That is usually more useful than 40 pages of dense compliance language.

A good policy gives people confidence to use AI productively while making the boundaries clear. It should sit alongside simple training, approved tools and an easy route for questions: not in a folder nobody visits.

My rule: if employees cannot explain the policy in a couple of minutes, it probably needs simplifying.

Would your team know what they can and cannot do with AI today? A short governance review can help identify the gaps.

There is always one person in the office who discovers a keyboard shortcut… five years after everyone else.

Today’s hero accidentally closed the browser tab they needed, panicked for approximately three seconds, then pressed Ctrl + Shift + T.

The tab came back.

So did the confidence.

Within minutes, they were demonstrating it to the entire office, explaining that they had “basically invented” the shortcut. Meanwhile, someone quietly admitted they had been searching through browser history every single time.

Ctrl + Shift + T reopens your most recently closed browser tab. Press it again to bring back another one.

Technology: saving time, reducing panic, and occasionally creating a very smug colleague.

Happy Friday

Can a robot help your team deliver better customer service?

The Keenon T10 Delivery Robot is designed to handle routine transportation and delivery tasks, allowing staff to focus on customers, residents, patients and visitors.

Whether it's hospitality, healthcare, care homes or corporate environments, the T10 can safely navigate busy spaces while transporting items autonomously.

At our recent Robotics Demonstration Day, visitors had the opportunity to see the T10 operating in a real-world environment and experience just how far robotics technology has developed.

Watch the video to see it in action.

Before connecting AI to company data, check who can access what.

AI does not fix messy permissions or poorly managed information. It can make existing problems easier to find, search and summarise at scale.

That is why permissions and information hygiene should come before productivity gains.

A practical pre-implementation checklist:

1. Map where sensitive, personal and commercially important data is stored.
2. Review user and group permissions, including former employees and inactive accounts.
3. Check shared drives and folders for excessive access.
4. Identify duplicate, outdated or unclear documents.
5. Confirm who owns important information and how it should be retained.
6. Start with an approved, lower-risk dataset and test the results before expanding.

This is not about stopping people from using AI. It is about creating the conditions for useful adoption: clearer data, sensible access and fewer surprises.

Good governance is practical. It helps people trust the tools they are being asked to use: and gives the business a safer route to measurable productivity.

Before your next AI pilot, review permissions and information hygiene first.

Software updates are part of good business security: not just an interruption to your day.

Updates often fix known security weaknesses, remove bugs and improve compatibility. Leaving them too long can increase the chance of avoidable problems, from unreliable applications to devices that are easier to compromise.

A simple routine helps: keep business software supported, switch on automatic updates where appropriate, schedule restarts outside working hours and make sure important data is backed up. It’s also worth checking that updates are coming from the genuine software provider: not an unexpected pop-up or email link.

Small, regular maintenance can help keep your systems safer and more reliable for everyone in the business.

Yesterday we welcomed business owners, facilities managers and technology leaders to our Robotics Demonstration Day at Broughton Hall Estate.

It was fantastic to see so much interest in how commercial robotics can help organisations improve efficiency, overcome staffing challenges and create better customer experiences.

From autonomous delivery robots to intelligent cleaning solutions, attendees were able to see first-hand how robotics is no longer a future technology. It's available today and delivering practical business benefits.

If you couldn't attend, our highlights video captures some of the action from the day.

What role do you think robotics will play in your industry over the next five years?

A first draft is not a final policy : and that distinction matters.

A practical use case we’re seeing is using AI to create the first version of an internal policy from approved source material: existing procedures, regulatory guidance, industry standards and previous policy versions.

For example, an operations team might use AI to turn that material into a structured draft in around 20 minutes, rather than spending three or four hours creating the document from scratch.

That time is released, but the quality comes from the process around it:

• A subject-matter expert checks the wording and business context
• Legal and compliance teams review obligations and risks
• Version control records what changed and which sources were used
• A named owner gives final approval

AI accelerates the blank page. It does not replace judgement, accountability or sign-off.

Used this way, the benefit is not just speed. It is a more consistent, traceable and reviewable starting point.

Want to give an important email one last review before it leaves your Outbox?

Outlook’s Delay Delivery feature lets you write an email now and schedule it to send later. It gives you time to check the wording, recipients and attachments.

1. Write your email and select Options > Delay Delivery.
2. Tick “Do not deliver before” and choose the date and time.
3. Select Close, then Send. The email will stay in your Outbox until the scheduled time, so you can review or edit it first.

A short pause can help prevent a rushed reply or a message sent to the wrong person.

An AI model is a pattern-finding tool : not a mind that understands your business.

A simple analogy is a very well-practised assistant. It has studied a huge number of examples and can produce a useful response based on the patterns it has learned.

But that assistant does not automatically know your company’s latest policies, customer details, internal processes or business priorities. It may also produce an answer that sounds confident but is incomplete or wrong.

That is why business context matters. Give an AI model clear instructions, approved information and defined boundaries, and it becomes far more useful. Keep a person involved to check important outputs, especially where decisions, compliance or customer trust are involved.

The practical takeaway: choosing an AI tool is only one part of the job. The real value comes from connecting it to the right business context : with sensible governance and human review built in from the start.
